New Windows and Cut-in/Install Balcony Door

Dave and his group at Encore are amazing.

They sell high quality product for a fair price and provide a lifetime warranty on their own workmanship as well as the lifetime warranty on the product they install.

Installers are friendly and know their stuff. Willing to take the time to do the job right plus give that little extra that makes you feel good about your decision.

Encore is the right size of company to deal with. You talk with the owner and he has the people to back him up.

With Encore you are NOT lost in a sea of voicemail and automated atendants...you talk with real people who are only interested in making you a happy customer.

New windows and doors...

I would happily recommend Encore windows to friends, family and strangers alike! All the personell that I came in contact with were both friendly and helpful. The installers were very detail oriented and did beautiful work. Our home was spottless when they left.

One of the unique features of our project was that our house is 100+ years old. Dave worked with us to have period style moulding milled for the project. It's georgous!!! Windows are very good quality and we no longer have cold drafts in the winter. :o)

We also had 2 steel doors and 2 vinyl doors installed by Encore and we are very happy with the outcome of them as well. Once again, Dave worked with us to have a custom leaded glass for the front door which turned out beautifully.

We are looking forward to finishing off the last three windows that need to be replaced with Encore.

Soundproof Windows

STAY AWAY.
You may be tempted to buy from this company because they are the only suppliers of Soundproof Windows in Toronto. Save your money and use it to MOVE instead.

My windows arrived almost 2 months late, while the company was very unhelpful and made no effort to keep me informed of their status along the way.

Not only do they not reduce sound to the degree I expected (I might as well not have them at all), but they're extremely difficult to open. They do NOT open "like my regular windows" as advertised.

I was disappointed in the product and the service. Look elsewhere for your windows.

Company Response

Yes, we did have a number of delayed installations late in 2006. A late delivery from our manufacturer combined with a Christmas shut down extended our normal delivery. We believe that proper communication with our customers is very important and thought we had kept everyone affected by this delay informed and updated on the deliver status of their order. Obviously from this customer’s comment we did not communicate well enough and will look at how we can insure better notification if this should ever occur in the future.

Sound proofing windows is one of the most effective ways to reduce exterior noise. Adding a sound proof window will reduce exterior noise by 65% to 75% (the variation depends on the type of existing window and the wall construction), it will not reduce sound by 100%. If you are expecting 100% noise reduction you will not get it. Be aware that some noise always comes through the walls.

The windows have tight seals to maximize sound reduction. If you have any issues regarding our windows, please contact us and we will inspect and adjust them to insure their proper operation.

Thank You

window and door installation

I have found Encore to be a superb company. They have unique products such as self-cleaning windows, and their installers do a wonderful job, cleaning up after themselves when they are done. Highly recommend Encore to anyone

Installation of Soundproof Windows

Outstanding product, installation, and customer service. Dave provided a lot of useful suggestions which resulted in cost-savings and a better end-product. One of the best customer-service experiences ever. If only all home improvement contractors were this good.

high end aluminart front door

Door still does not close properly, and also other door features don't work. Have called repeatedly over 1 1/2 years. Still no response. Diane, the receptionist, promises to have supervisor call back. Have asked for e-mails of company owners. Nothing happens. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND

Company Response

Actually, we have responded numerous times in the last year and a half to this customer, inspected the door several times, and provided repairs on four visits ranging from adjustments and repairs to the hinges, the door pumps and the handles.

None of these repairs were caused by manufacturing or installation defects but through abuse. Even so, we provided all but one of these repairs at no charge (the abuse was so blatant on one repair, the customer agreed we had to apply a service charge to repair it).

We truly believe we have gone above and beyond the call of duty with this situation.

The fact is we are still dealing with this customer. As recently as 2 weeks ago we replaced a pump, at our expense, in order to provide exceptional service to our customer.

Replacement of windows.

All of the personnel from sales through to installation were extremely friendly courtious and helpful.When possible they responded to our questions immediately and when not, they got back to us quickly. They were careful with our possessions and cleaned up well. We would not hesitate to recommend them to others.

Windows and Door Replacement

Right from the time that Anthony came to give me a quote through to the last cleanup, everyone from Encore was both detail and service oriented. Encore Home Improvements replaced almost every window in our house – on time in both delivery and installation, with a quality product and at a reasonable price. A special thanks to Michael – he takes pride in his work, and it shows. We will not hesitate to recommend Encore Windows to anyone, and when we need the last few windows in our house replaced, Encore Home Improvements will be the only call that we make.

Installed Windows

Anthony is excellent in estimating the cost of the project. Ross & Michael are very precise with the final measurements for ordering the windows, that everything fits perfectly as the end result. I'm very happy with the detail work of Michael and Vincent, they're very considerate of keeping my house clean even though it was pouring rain outside. I appreciate every effort they have put in for my house. I really feel lucky to have hired them that it'll be hard for me to find such nice people again for future projects. It really felt I was watching a "live" Holmes show seeing how they have discovered and fixed the rotten wood underneath my bay window. After the project has completed, Anthony came by to double check that everything is alright. Thanks Anthony, Mike, Vince, & Ross for the painless experience! I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs to have their windows replaced.
