Window Replacement Services in Toronto

Got a broken, leaky, worn out window? Want to change the style or size of your windows? Aluplex is here to help with window replacement services in Toronto. As the #1 glass manufacturer in the GTA, you can count on us to simplify the installation process and provide high quality windows.

Emergency Broken Window Replacement Services

One of the most vital services that can be offered to homeowners is emergency window replacement services. In the event of a broken window, water damage can happen in a matter of hours. We take the matter very seriously and can be out to your house fast with a window replacement at the ready. Not only will we bring a window replacement right to your home, we’ll install it for you with no fuss. Your home will be protected from the elements again in no time.

Skylight Window Replacement Services

A skylight that needs to be replaced is even more important than a standard window. It’s perfectly positioned to collect and leak water when broken. Even if your skylight window is perfectly intact, we’re happy to help you in your endeavor to replace it.

We offer skylight windows of all styles. From pyramid to standard, rectangular home skylights, you can bet on us having the skylight you’re after. Just let us know you’re after our skylight window replacement services and we’ll bring the replacement right to you and install it. Replacing your skylight window has never been easier than when working with Aluplex.

Replace Worn Out or Dated Windows

Regular windows tend to wear out after years of use. Even windows that were once high quality will need replacement eventually. Dual-pane windows are insulated with a heavy, transparent gas between the panes. However, even if they were made to be high quality, eventually, that gas will escape. The insulatory capabilities of that window will, well, go out the window! When that happens, it’s time to replace it.

If your windows are no longer insulating your home the way you expect them to, give us a call. We’re happy to outfit your entire home or business with new windows of the highest quality. 

Change Window Size or Style

Want a specific style of window? We’re sure to have it available! Windows aren’t a one-size-fits-all solution. Everyone wants something that matches their building design. Aluplex has windows of all styles available to choose from. Just let us know what you’re after and we’ll ensure you get what you need.

Additionally, window size can also require adjustment. If you’re renovating your home and the old windows are no longer the right shape or size, you may need to replace them – even if they had some more mileage left in them. That’s no problem at all. Plenty of people buy windows secondhand to save on costs. Simply take them to a salvage yard or sell them to someone directly and they’ll continue to get use. If they’re not right for your home anymore, they’re not right for your home anymore. No matter what change you’re after, we’re sure to be able to help. Let us know the dimensions you’re in the market for and we’ll deliver and install them in any space ready to accommodate them.

Leaking Skylight Repair Services in Toronto

September 30, 2022 By Webmaster

Leaking Skylight Repair Services in Toronto

If your skylight is leaking, you’ve got a number of problems that won’t go away on their own. Fortunately, Aluplex is here to help! We offer leaking skylight repair services to the entire GTA. If reparations aren’t possible, we’re happy to help you replace your broken skylight. Here’s how we can help.

Patch Cracked Glass

When the glass in your skylight cracks, it can do a number of things. If it’s the exterior pane, it can lead to your window collecting moisture between the panes and growing mold. Additionally, it will make your skylight window fog up more than expected. However, if it’s the inside pane, your skylight window will lose its insulation and become susceptible to further damage, which may lead to leaks. 

Patching cracked glass is completely possible for any individual to do. A glass patching kit is easily purchased from a local hardware store. However, if done wrong, you can end up doing nothing to repair the patch as well as leaving yourself an unattractive layer of epoxy on your glass. If you’d like help with patching a cracked skylight, give us a call and we can offer our services.

Repair Incorrect Installation

One of the worst experiences you can have with a window company is relying on them to install a window only for them to do it incorrectly. Windows offer many comforts in exterior visibility, but they’re the only layer keeping the elements where they belong. If they’re installed incorrectly, they can break, leak, allow pests inside, or worse. The best case scenario means hiring someone to correct the problem (that’s us). The worst case means having to replace the window a second time, losing the money you spent on the incorrectly-installed window, and having to pay for home damages from rain water. We hope to help you correct the problem before it comes to the latter.

Replace Leaking Skylights

If you’ve got a skylight that’s been doing its best for a number of years but just isn’t holding up anymore, it’s time to replace it. Aluplex is here to help. Of all types of windows, skylights and skylight installation are our forte. Just give us a call and we’ll prevent a water damage disaster with our leaking skylight repair services. It’s as easy as putting in a new and effective skylight where the old one isn’t doing so hot. 

Emergency Leaking Skylight Repair Services in Toronto

Window failure is no laughing matter. A skylight, of all the windows, is the worst. If a skylight begins to leak, its position on the roof of the home means immediate rain collection and indoor water pooling or flooding. Prevent water damage in your home by giving us a call the moment you notice your skylight is leaking. We offer skylight repair services in emergency situations ASAP. Don’t waste any time when you’ve got a team of window professionals behind you.

High Quality Floor to Ceiling Windows in Toronto

August 31, 2022 By Webmaster

High Quality Floor to Ceiling Windows in Toronto

If you’re looking for a way to improve both the interior and exterior appearance of your home or business, high quality floor to ceiling windows are the way to go. These come with a number of benefits, and we want to share those with you.

Get Better Lighting and Save on Electricity

One of the first things you’ll notice after having floor to ceiling windows installed is that you get incredible lighting. Having large windows allows sunshine to poor into your home, so long as you allow it to. Want your home to be illuminated with beautiful, natural daylight? This is how to achieve that.

If you want exceptional lighting from morning til night, install floor to ceiling windows on more than one side of your house. Depending on which direction your home is facing, you could gain daylight illumination by installing floor to ceiling windows on opposite sides of a room, or even adjacent walls.

In addition to the magnificent lighting you’ll obtain, you will also save on electricity. Without the need of so many electric lights in your home, you’ll spend less on electricity each month. You’d be surprised how much electricity is wasted on lights each day. By simply opening your home up to the sun, you can get all of that light for free.

Improve Views from Inside

Right after natural light, floor to ceiling windows also grant you amazing views from inside your home. Whether your home overlooks a beautiful nature scene, a cityscape, or simply your backyard, the view will be magnificent. 

Looking out a regular window doesn’t offer much excitement. Even if the view is really nice, it feels contained. There’s no ignoring that you’re inside. However, with large, floor to ceiling windows, your interior becomes one with nature. The border between you and the outdoors nearly melts away into nothing.

Increase Resale Value and Curb Appeal

Whether you’re in the city, the suburbs, or tucked away in nature, adding floor to ceiling windows to your home is going to increase resale value and curb appeal. Why is that?

Well, resale value is boosted for 3 reasons: the lighting, the improved views, and the beauty added to the house itself. Windows just look nice on a house. That’s exactly why the curb appeal is boosted! When you pull up to a house and can see large windows on it, it looks fancy, expensive, and elegant. Just looking the part of an expensive house will make it into an expensive house. Adding these large windows will more than make up for the cost in resale increase.

Get High Quality Floor to Ceiling Windows in Toronto

When shopping around for new windows, floor to ceiling or otherwise, you should always come to us at Aluplex. We’re the #1 glass manufacturer in Toronto. Our high quality windows are made to last. Their quality means crystal clear visibility, damage resistance, and fantastic insulation. Plus, when you become a customer at Aluplex, we also offer repair services, even in emergencies.

Prepare for Sukkot with Operable Kosher Skylights

August 31, 2022 By Webmaster

Sukkot is just around the corner. For observant Jews, this holiday means going into the great outdoors of your backyard and putting together a shelter for you and your family. However, not everyone has the ability or desire to make something completely from scratch. There are many reasons one might desire something less physically demanding. With some help from Aluplex, you can turn your porch into the shelter you need with our operable, kosher skylights.

Completely Kosher Skylights

Aluplex offers kosher skylights that can be installed over a porch so that it may be used for Sukkot. Our kosher skylights can be opened manually, or with an air compressor. When installed in the roof of a porch, they can be opened for Sukkot and a sukkah appropriate roof can be built in their place. Then, the framework of the porch can be used to support the other parts of the sukkah structure.

Old Age and Disability Friendly

Creating a shelter for Sukkot each year is a very demanding task. For those reaching older age, or those of any age with disabilities, we offer a less demanding solution. Turning a porch into a sukkah lessens the workload required each year, allowing those with limited mobility, or less energy, to partake as well.

By relying on the framework of the porch, building a sukkah can be as simple as opening your kosher skylights, covering the new opening with appropriate, sukkah roofing material, attaching some canvas to the porch supports to create walls, and so on. Taking out the task of building a completely new framework makes crafting a sukkah much more manageable. Plus, once sukkot ends, you can close your skylights once more and have a lovely, sunlit porch.

Reusable Each Year

By installing our kosher skylights in your porch roof, you not only improve your porch permanently, you make it a reusable sukkah base for each following year. Opening and closing the skylights is all it takes to go from a functional part of your home, to a sukkah frame, and back again.

High Quality Windows

Our skylights aren’t just kosher, they’re also high quality. We specialize in glass and windows of all kinds. Our kosher skylights are no exception. You can count on us to deliver high quality skylights with clear visibility and that won’t leak. 

They’re also well insulated. Closed-in porches and sunrooms will retain warmth – or cold, depending on the season – and save you money. Electric bills go up astronomically when windows lose their insulation. You can rely on us to provide windows that maintain their insulation for many, many years.

Emergency Repair Services

If disaster strikes in bad weather or an accident, we offer emergency repair services. Rain or shine, you can count on us to come out and service your skylights. We know skylights are the one thing keeping rain out of your home. There’s no time to waste when one breaks or starts leaking. Give us a call and we’ll be there!

How to Clean Up Aging Windows

August 1, 2022 By Webmaster

How to Clean Up Aging Windows

Old windows don’t look their best. As with all things, time will do a real number on them. If you live in an old house and your windows are looking worse for wear, it’s time to do something about it. Aluplex is here to help. As Toronto’s #1 glass manufacturer, we know just what to do to clean up aging windows.

Wash Them

The first step to getting your windows back up to snuff is washing them. Soap and water will work wonders on an old window, but you may need more. For particularly old windows with a lot of grime on them, using special cleaners is a good idea. Something intended to cut through tough grime will get off layers of years-old sediment. 

However, if you also have molding issues, you might want to use vinegar as well. Just be sure you don’t mix cleaners. Things that are completely harmless by themselves can create deadly gasses when combined. So, be sure to wash with plain water between different cleaners if you’re not sure how they interact. Or, go straight for a cleaner with a vinegar base. Vinegar is great at killing off mold and is safe for animals and children to be around.

You may want to use a straight-edge tool like a putty knife to scrape out any grime along the edge of the glass panes.

Patch Cracks

Windows with cracks should always be patched or replaced ASAP, depending on the severity of the damage. Modern windows with dual panes are filled with an insulating gas. This keeps your home’s temperature from fluctuating as much with the weather. Additionally, it prevents noise from traveling as freely from inside or outside of the house. When your window cracks, it makes space for that insulation to escape, hurting the integrity of the window.

Patching window cracks is a bit tedious, but not difficult. You can do so with epoxy and an adhesive film. These are easiest to attain in a glass patching kit, which can be found at most hardware stores.

Mend the Window Frame

Lastly, you’ll want to mend the window frame and sill. You’d be surprised how much of a window’s appearance comes from its surroundings. Get yourself some putty and fill in any cracks in the sill, wiping any excess of so that it’s smooth. Do the same for any cracks in the wall surrounding the window. Any notable gaps between the window case and frame should be tightened up with wooden shims. These can be cut down and then covered with putty to hide them. Finally, use some caulking to trace the perimeter of the window case and close any seam between it and the frame. All of this sealing will both improve the appearance of the window and make it harder for any bugs or air to get past.

Replace Aging Windows

If you’ve got room for window replacements in your budget, replacing aging windows is definitely the best option. Windows that have reached an age where their appearance is suffering are typically not doing so great in other respects either. If you’re in the market for reliable window replacements, come to Aluplex. We offer a wide selection of quality windows that can improve your home’s appearance and function in one go.

Replace Custom Windows in Toronto

August 1, 2022 By Webmaster

Replace Custom Windows in Toronto

Replacing windows is a pain in and of itself. It only becomes more difficult when the windows are custom sized. Many places that sell windows only sell standard sizes. Aluplex is different. Because we manufacture glass instead of just selling windows as a middle man, we can help you with custom window replacements. Let’s check out how we can help you replace custom windows in your Toronto home or business.

Custom Window Creation

What makes Aluplex different than other locations that sell windows is that we’re a window manufacturer. Hardware stores may carry a variety of windows, but they’re only functioning as a middle man for big manufacturers. At Aluplex, on the other hand, we make our own products. Therefore, if you call us to order custom windows, we’ll never be out of stock! Your order just means rolling up our sleeves and getting to work.

Custom Window Installation in Toronto

Our team at Aluplex does more than just manufacture windows; we do it all! From the production to the installation, our team knows windows. Therefore, when you need to replace custom windows in Toronto, you don’t have to order from us and then find another team to put them in. We’ll make the windows, deliver the windows, and install the windows. Plus, we’ll continue to provide care for them even after we’ve put them in and said our goodbyes. Repair services are just a phonecall away.

Custom Skylight Windows

While regular windows are a need in every household, skylight windows are not. Because of that, there are fewer window experts that cover skylight manufacture and installation. There are even fewer that craft them to custom specifications.

If you have an unusual skylight design or location, we’ll work with you to design and craft the right skylight for the space. Replacing oddly-shaped skylights is just as easy. We can copy the dimensions of the existing skylight. Or, if the current design is faulty due to its unusual shape, we can do better and replace it with one that works reliably.

Window Maintenance and Repair

Installing a window is only half the battle. Upkeep is just as important. A window cracking, breaking, or leaking is an emergency for most homes. Especially since most window damage occurs during storms.

If your Aluplex window meets with an untimely break, call us at any time of day and we’ll come out to service your window ASAP.

Order Custom Windows

Don’t have custom windows yet? If your home is a work in progress and ready for some new windows that are outside the standard, Aluplex can help. No matter your custom window needs, we’ve got you covered. Call us today and we can get started!
