Windows Worthy of a Semiahmoo View
Semiahmoo exists because of the view, and the view is exactly what makes windows here such a serious subject. Homes along the spit and around the golf course look across Drayton Harbor to Blaine or north over Semiahmoo Bay toward White Rock, and nearly every one was designed around glass. But that same water sends salt-laden wind at those windows all winter, and the low sun bouncing off the bay hammers south and west exposures with UV all summer. The neighborhood's housing stock, largely built from the 1980s through the 2000s as the resort community grew, is now old enough that original aluminum and early vinyl windows are failing in visible ways: fogged double panes, corroded hardware, sashes that no longer lock smoothly against a gale.
Alpine Exteriors replaces windows across Whatcom County, and Semiahmoo is a place where we tell homeowners the honest truth: this is a marine exposure, and it deserves marine-grade choices. Anything less gets re-bought within fifteen years, usually at a worse price and always at the cost of another round of disruption.
