Local project context
San Mateo’s largest housing-stock cohort was built from 1940–1959, totaling 14,721 units, and only 4.6% of units were constructed since 2010; replacement-window work may therefore commonly involve older assemblies and existing openings rather than uniformly new construction.
Local areas to keep in mind: North Central; North Shoreview. Existing details, opening condition, and any district-level review may affect a replacement plan.
San Mateo County identifies rising temperatures and heatwaves, flooding, wildfire smoke, and sea-level rise as local climate risks, so consider energy-efficient, well-sealed windows with performance selected for the specific home and exposure rather than assuming one specification fits every site.

The City states that permits are required to build, enlarge, alter, remove, demolish, or repair a structure and advises contacting a permit technician for the particular project; therefore, treat like-for-like replacement as project-specific and verify locally before work, especially if openings or structure change.
