Windows and Doors
We sell and install windows and doors for the greater Los Angeles area. We are located in West Hollywood CA and service all of the surrounding areas. Call us to book an appointment to have your door or window professionally measured and installed by us. We do not use sub-contractors. Tashman Home Center only installs windows and doors with our crew of professionals. We warranty all of our installation work.
We offer a wide selection of door manufacturers for sale. Our primary brands we carry are Simpson door company as well as Milgard patio doors, and Paramount doors right built right here in Los Angeles. The first impression people see of your home is the front door or front window. It adds curb appeal for sellers and should be well maintained and updated every decade or so depending upon weather.
Tashman Home Center has been in business since 1961. We have been installing windows and doors for over sixty years and have perfected the art of installation. We have seen many problematic scenarios over the years and our experts can overcome the pitfalls of cost when it comes to form over function.
Here is a classic example of what you are paying for and why you should choose us for your installation job.
CUSTOMER: "How much will it cost to do this job?"
CONTRACTOR: "$2,800 Dollars."
CUSTOMER: "That's WAY too expensive for this job!!"
CONTRACTOR: "How much do YOU think it would cost?"
CUSTOMER: "No more than $800 Dollars - MAX!! It's a simple job!"
CONTRACTOR: "I can't prioritize my time for so little."
CUSTOMER: "People in your line of work are so greedy."
CONTRACTOR: "Sorry you feel that way. Why not do it yourself?"
CUSTOMER: "But... but... I don't know how to do any of this."
CONTRACTOR: "For $900 Dollars, I'll teach you EXACTLY how to get this job done. Then you can spend $800 to do the job and you'll still be saving $1,100 Dollars - PLUS... you'll get the knowledge and experience for the next time you want to do a job yourself."
CUSTOMER: "Deal!! Let's do it."
CONTRACTOR: To get started you'll need tools. So you'll have to buy a welder, a grinder, a chop saw, a drill press, a welding hood, gloves and a few other things."
CUSTOMER: "But I don't have all this equipment and I can't buy all of these for one job."
CONTRACTOR: "Well then for another $300 more I'll let you rent my tools... and you'll still be saving $800 Dollars."
CUSTOMER: "That's cutting into my savings. But I'll rent your tools."
CONTRACTOR: "Okay! I'll be back on Saturday and we can start."
CUSTOMER: "Wait. I can't on Saturday. I only have time today."
CONTRACTOR: "Sorry, I only give lessons on Saturday, because I have to prioritize my time and my tools have to be at other jobs with other customers all week long.
CUSTOMER: "Okay!! I'll sacrifice my family plans on Saturday."
CONTRACTOR: "Yeah... me too. Oh... and I forgot... to do your job yourself, you also have to pay for the materials. Everything is in high demand right now, so your best bet is to get your truck and load up at 6AM before everyone else gets there."
CUSTOMER: "SIX AM??? On a Saturday??? That's way to early for me. And also... I don't have a truck."
"CONTRACTOR: "I guess you'll have to rent one. Do you have a couple of strong men to help you load and unload everything?"
CUSTOMER: "Ummm... ya know... I've been thinking. It's probably best if YOU get this job done. I'd rather pay someone to get it done correctly than go through all the hassle.
CONTRACTOR: "Smart move, sign this and please let me start ordering the parts and materials for the installation of your windows and doors for you."
The reality is plain and simple. When you pay for a job, especially handcrafted, you pay not only for the material used, but you are also paying for the following.
You can't haggle over a service that you don't actually have the skills or knowledge to do yourself. You can't get a high quality gourmet dinner party for the same price as a Happy Meal from McDonald's. And you can't be mad when skilled people actually KNOW their own worth. Be smart. Trust a reputable professional. And never forget... that you ALWAYS get what you pay for.
