Who We Are

Foxtail Hill has been providing premium quality wood windows & doors to the San Francisco Bay Area for over 30 years. The business was founded by Vincent Keehan, one of the old school master craftsmen. Vincent served a long apprenticeship in his native Ireland. Upon arrival in San Francisco, he was immediately struck by the beauty of the city – especially the ornate Victorians with their rounded bay windows. He understood the craftmanship that went into the construction of these beautiful buildings and he has devoted his life to recreating and preserving that beauty.

Foxtail Hill is the embodiment of Vincent’s passion for his work and his attention to detail. We use time honored techniques combined with the latest developments in modern window manufacturing. The end result is precision windows and doors that add beauty to your home and last for generations.We have earned a reputation for quality work and many local architects have hired us for their various restoration projects. We also have a loyal following in the Real Estate community and many agents refer us to their clients. We have built strong relationships with lots of home builders who have also understood and appreciate the quality of our products and services. However, the majority of our work comes from individual homeowners and plain old word-of-mouth marketing. The result is a long list of satisfied clients.

What Our Clients Say

Foxtail has replaced 16 windows and a door in our 94-year-old Mediterranean-style house. The quality is excellent, and the installation was very professional. I chose Foxtail because, unlike some of the competition, they install as well as manufacture the windows. I have had problems in the past where an installation contractor and a manufacturer would each blame the other for problems. I had the windows made in mahogany and delivered in advance of installation. I then stained and varnished them for an excellent look. Foxtail even rebuilt a rotted out window frame as part of the installation. This company isn't inexpensive, but it's worth it for the quality. If you want beautiful wood windows instead of the fake-looking vinyl type, this is the place to go.

We had all of our windows replaced with hardware in our old San Francisco house (built before 1900). There were some challenges but the guys handled it with style. It looks great, they did a great job! Can't recommend them enough! The price was right, the workmen polite, on time and more than competent.

I have worked with Vince Keehan at Foxtail Hill Window and Doors for the past twenty-five years on a multitude of custom homes in San Francisco. His company has provided my firm with a top quality, old world product that compliments our high-end renovation business. This custom window company can duplicate any existing style of window or door from any period or any type of architecture and deliver them within an acceptable time schedule. Foxtail is at the very top of our list for custom suppliers and subcontractors and we look forward to working with Vince and his team on many projects in the future.

As a general contractor, I have been doing business with Foxtail Hill Doors and Windows since 1993. We use Foxtail on all our remodeling projects. Our clients are extremely satisfied with the high quality of work that they consistently perform on our jobs. Foxtail has also done work on my home. They stand behind their work. I will continue to use Foxtail for many years to come.

Vince helped us choose the right new interior doors and exterior doors to suit our home. He delivered them when he said he would, and his crew did a very fine job of fitting them into the existing frames of our very old and crooked house. They even built some new frame pieces to be sure the doors fit correctly. We have recommended Foxtail to several friends who also had very good experiences.

They did a great job replacing my bent sash Edwardian windows. Professional and skilled workers. Highly recommend Foxtail Hill Windows.

Vincent, Patricia, Gonzalo and "the boys" have all been terrific. They restored the original windows in our Victorian when we first moved in over two years ago, and added custom made storm doors and a window that transformed a storage space into a cozy office. But best of all was that last week, when the storm was sending rain water from my upstairs neighbors' siding into our windows, Vincent's team came and climbed a ladder in the pouring rain to erect plastic sheeting to keep our home dry until the weather cleared. Vincent also recommended another contractor who could evaluate my neighbors' siding and make the needed repairs. Thank you, folks at Foxtail Hill.

The owners of Foxtail Hill Windows and Doors are good people, that's for sure. Vince and his wife were communicative, prompt, and thoughtful. But their employees are GREAT. These are the nicest, most courteous, clean guys you will ever hire. The remembered my name and shook my hand, played with my dog who was eagerly awaiting his new dog door (custom... ooh la la!), and cleaned/ put everything into place when they left. I'm using them again to buy the glass fronts to my new cabinets.

Went on a search to replace a window in my new commercial space that is under construction. Happened upon Foxtail Windows and Doors and asked for a quote. Unfortunately the quote for a custom window was a bit higher than my budget. But the owner Vincent Keehan sprang into action once I told him it was a bit more than I wanted to spend on a rental. He searched his existing stock for a premade window that was very close to my needs for a fantastic price! I couldn't recommend them more. And from the looks of the work in the shop, no scale is too large or small - they do everything! I left very impressed by him and now he has a client for life.

Foxtail Windows was recommended to us by someone who has used them on multiple occasions over the years. We needed to have a few solid window frames replaced in a 100+ year old home since they had been weathered and deteriorating over the years. Vince, the owner was very responsive and prompt with assessing the damage and making recommendations. The team that came out to install the windows was extremely professional. They were thorough with the installation and cleaned up everything when they were done. The craftsmanship of the work was stellar and the entire experience professional. We have more windows and doors to be replaced and will definitely be contacting Foxtail Windows to handle those.

We called Foxtail Hill for an estimate to replace our 4 big windows (over 8' each) in front of our home. Vince came over and looked at the windows and took the drawings that our architect drew. The pricing was very fair. The quality of work was impeccable. The craftsmanship in these windows are great. The installation crew came and covered up what they needed to and cleaned up very well. They were very respectful. The windows did not come painted, they were primed but this is what was said all along and was in the quote. These windows were exactly what we were looking for. Plus the fact that Vince is very nice and Patricia and Gonzalo are super helpful. Foxtail Hill has a great team of people. I would highly recommend Foxtail Hill Windows if you are looking for a beautiful craftsman wood window, you will not be disappointed.

Vince installed 5 custom, double paned windows for us close to 10 years ago. In the last bout of storms, 3 began to collect moisture between the panes. I called Vince and he came out to check. He said I'll have new windows in 6 days at no charge!! All I had was the receipt from 10 years ago, which he never even asked to see. He does such quality work and stands behind his craftsmanship. I would use him again and couldn't recommend him highly enough.

My husband and I contacted Foxtail Hill when we realized we had to change an old drafty window in what was to become our nursery -- and it was 4 weeks until the baby was due! Vince came out within 24-hours, measured and had a custom wood double-hung window made and installed within 10 days. His crew was extremely professional, friendly, and dedicated to the job. I was completely blown away. Vince and Patricia even sent us a good luck note along with the bill, which really shows the level of personal attention they give their clients. We would recommend Foxtail Hill to anyone needing to replace windows -- every step of the experience was smooth and out expectations were not only but, but exceeded on every level.

I called them and Vince came out the very next day to look over our leak situation. He and Gonzalo were the 3rd contractors I'd had to look at it and the first to actually put up a ladder and climb up to inspect the damage. The asked for a bucket of water to pour over the suspected leak and then concluded that the damage was roof not window damage. Then they gave me the name of a roofer they trusted to do good work. I've asked them for an estimate on a door replacement since they were so diligent with the leak. I hope their work is as strong as their honesty.
