Great company to work with

I had a broken window that needed replacing. I couldn't decide between replacing just the window or the the window units in the room.

Called a few places and got a number of quotes for both options. Some didn't call back or only discussed it over the phone. Steve from Fortress wanted to come by my house have a look at the window and discuss my options. From the beginning there was no pressure and he answered all my questions. At one point I wanted to replace all the window units in the room (builder grade) but later switched back to just replacing the window pane. Steve was very understanding and helpful. The window pane was ordered and he came to install it. Fortress was cheaper than everyone else, but without a compromise in quality of window. We will be calling him when it is time to replace the windows in our house.

Hello Winston. Many companies talk a great talk but Fortress Windows and Doors walks the walk. Why? because we know that if we treat people well with the small jobs, they will come back when they're looking for something larger. It's called building rapport and trust with the community and working with all people no matter what the size of the job. Bringing Quality Integrity and Value to our clients is something we take very seriously and those who have worked with us will tell you themselves... just as you have Winston. We appreciate your feedback and your business. Steve

New windows and front door

We had a great experience from start to finish with Fortress Windows. Steve answered and returned my calls immediately and provided excellent service throughout the process. We were only going to do the front door and window but after we saw how amazing it looked and how easy the installation was we decided to do the upstairs windows as well. Steve and his crew worked really hard making sure we got exactly what we wanted and I will definitely recommend Fortress to others and we will have them back to do more work for us. thank you Steve and crew!

window installation

Steve was a very cooperative sales person. He came immediately and gave me suggestions. It was very easy as we text pictures options and suggestions.
They were installed with care and ease. Steve even came out and worked to get the job done in one day with little interruptions to the tenant.
They look beautiful and love the casement style. It certainly added curb appeal to the house.
He has done a garage door and exterior doors.
Thanks again Steve for being so prompt and courteous.

Door replacement

I requested a quote for a back door from several companies and Steve came the next day on a Saturday to suggest ideas for the door. After settling on the door, Dave installed it within the week. Our new back door is great and both Steve and Dave were highly professional. I would definitely recommend Fortress windows and doors!

Doors and Windows Replacement

We loved our beautiful old house, but not so much our doors and windows! We installed layers of insulators to weather proof our doors, and yet the inside was windy! Fortress Windows & Doors did a fantastic job in selling their product and installing it with absolute care to details.
Thanks Steve(s)! for your professional quality, Thanks Stan and Paul for such a clean installation.
Now, when we sit down, sipping our coffee, and gazing out, what we see is beauty, cleanness, and quality.
Thank you guys.

Thank you for trusting Fortress Windows and Doors to put your home into a condition you feel good about. We all know that old windows and doors are a financial drain because they lack energy efficiency. New windows and doors will certainly give your home great curb appeal, a much more comfortable living environment, an increase in value and a lower operating cost in energy savings. Thanks again for choosing Fortress! Steve

Entry Door

Our entry door was In rough shape and needed to be replaced. I was looking for a contractor that would take care of the whole thing (removal of old door, supply of the new, fixing around the edges, installation of lock etc). After checking out his reviews in homestars I called Steve from Fortress. He was great: came out to review the job, left us some catalogs to review, provided detailed comparative quotes when advised of the options we wanted to consider. We settled down on a very reasonable price (all included) and he deliver the door ahead of schedule with high quality and no surprises. A pleasure to work with!

Window replacement

They are the ultimate in professionalism: meticulous and knowledgeable, taking extraordinary care of my property to avoid damage etc. I had great difficulty in finding a company that would replace only one window but they answered my call and I am fortunate that they did. Wonderful and gentle people.

Thank you Susan. It was a pleasure working with you... and we know that after your experience with Fortress Windows and Doors you will have no hesitation in recommending us to friends and family. Many companies lose sight of the fact that small jobs need attention as well as the large jobs.... it is important to the people in need. Good will goes a long way to improve the reputation of a company and although your job was small we know that it will always come back in a positive way. Thank you for your review and for your business! Steve

Window Install

We had a small front window replaced. When the installers arrived, you couldn't have asked for nicer guys.
The window quality was far better than expected. The inside trim framing was absolutely perfect.
The outside aluminum work was again, better than expected. The installer made the right decision as to size and look. They definitely had an eye for this. The work site was impeccable when they left. I highly recommend the Fortress team.
