Professional Window Installers in Thunder Bay, ON

Yes. High quality replacement windows/doors, properly sealed and installed, can have a significant impact on your heating and cooling costs. According to the latest National Research Council of Canada report, replacing all the windows and doors in your house by high energy efficiency products can reduce your energy bill by up to 16% . For an average home with a $150 energy bill per month and an annual increase of 7.5% in energy cost in the last 10 years , the saving equals $12,000 over 20 years.

Vinyl is by far the most popular type of window because of it's energy efficiency, durability, cost and because it is virtually maintenance-free. Many companies use high quality virgin powder vinyl that is resistant to moisture and will never crack, peel, fade or need to be re-painted or stained.

Replacement grade windows and doors are typically higher quality products than New Home Construction (or Contractor) products. The reason is that new home builders and contractors are looking for the cheapest products they can buy to maximize the return on their project and they usually only offer the minimum warranty by law which is 2 years. Most companies offering replacement windows offer a warranty of 10 years or more because their products are better designed, built and installed.

Our low expansion foam is designed specifically for window and door installations. It expands to fill voids that fibreglass batt insulation may not effectively reach. Unlike fibreglass, foam acts as a vapour barrier that seals openings and gaps and reduce leakage. Stuffed into gaps, compressed fibreglass insulation loses its insulating value. It is also susceptible to moisture that penetrates gaps in the form of water vapour or liquid water from rain, snow and condensation. Over time, that moisture can lead to the growth of mold . In contrast, insulating foam sealant fills gaps with a water-resistant seal. It expands to take the shape of cracks and voids, forming a long-lasting airtight bond to the vinyl, wood, composite and metal surfaces.
