WHAT IS THE PROCESS FOR INSTALLING NEW WINDOWS OR NEW DOORS?
First, our team will ensure the precise fit and ideal look for your home. Before installation, we will visit your home to re-measure all the windows and doors to confirm that all your specifications are correct, including the colour and style. On the day of installation, our team will walk you through the entire process to make sure you understand it before we begin working. Once we have completed all the window replacements and / or door replacements, we will clean up the installation site – inside and out. Our installers will complete a walk-through with you to show you how to operate your new windows and will ensure that you are completely satisfied with our work.
WHEN SHOULD I REPLACE MY DOORS?
There are some telltale signs that indicate when it is time to replace your doors. Here are a few signs to look for when deciding if you need a new door:
- Is there a draft coming in? Can you feel the cold air outside when you place your hand near the seam of your door? It looks like the seal around your door has failed and has either shrunk or cracked.
- Are there visible cracks in your door? This can also let the cold air inside and increase the costs of your energy bills. Cracks can also be a sign of structural weakness and can be a safety concern.
- Do the hinges on your door squeak? Similar to the brakes on your car, this is a warning sign that the door is due to be replaced.
- Does your door drag and scratch your floor? When your door has become too old that it is now warping or sagging and consequently, ruining your floor’s surface, it’s time for a new door!
WHEN SHOULD I REPLACE MY WINDOWS?

- Can you feel a draft or cold air coming in from your window? Again, this could mean that the seal around your window has failed and it may be time for a new window.
- Do your windows stick when you try to open or close them or do they refuse to stay open? It’s time for new windows!
