Commercial Skylight Installation and Repair Services

July 1, 2023 By Webmaster

Commercial Skylight Installation and Repair Services

Skylights can be truly transformative centerpieces to otherwise simple spaces. This is true for many kinds of interiors. From family homes to sprawling office buildings, skylights can really make the difference. So, when you want to take a space to the next level, who do you call? The simple answer is: Aluplex. Aluplex has the commercial skylight installation professionals you need, all across Toronto.

Big or Small

Skylights come in all shapes and sizes. Some glass and construction companies only offer services for one or the other. Small-scale construction companies may be happy to help install a skylight over your kitchen, but aren’t qualified nor interested in taking on something larger. Some commercial names are happy to take on big projects but don’t have time for small, residential window installation.

Aluplex is here for you no matter what size skylight you want installed. If we sell it, we can put it in for you. Skylights are one of our specializations and we take that to heart. If you need help making your skylight needs a reality, you can count on us to make it happen.

Any Style You Want

Skylights aren’t a one size fits all kind of design feature. Sure, small rectangular skylights are pretty standard in housing, but that doesn’t mean they’re right for everyone. This is especially true when beginning to scale up. Larger buildings have a lot more ceiling room to accommodate things like dome or pyramid skylights. With more options to choose from, who wouldn’t want to get creative?

No matter what style you’re after, we know how to help. Different types of skylights will require different kinds of buildings, connections, anchoring, and more. Our commercial skylight installation professionals know how to expertly install any of our offered skylights.

Emergency Repair Services

No one is immune to incident, especially not skylight owners with trees around their home. Skylights aren’t impervious to damage. And, because of their position on the roof of a home or office, a damaged skylight can mean a damaged interior. After all, water has been known to do quite a number on flooring and furniture alike. If a skylight is what’s keeping the rain out, a damaged skylight is bad news all around.

Fortunately Aluplex’s commercial skylight installation professionals are also skylight repair specialists. If you have emergency repair needs, call us right away and we’ll be out to help you as soon as we can. Even if it’s still storming, we’ll be there for you. After all, it’s better to get your window back in working order while the rain is still coming down.

Broken Skylight Replacements

Whether you need emergency commercial skylight repair services or not, we’re also happy to help with broken skylight replacements. As we said, a broken skylight can cause all kinds of problems. Therefore, if a broken skylight is plaguing your home, we can replace it with one that will do its job. Just give us a call when you’re ready to get your skylight replacement and we’ll make it happen.

Residential Skylight Installation in Toronto

March 28, 2023 By Webmaster

Residential Skylight Installation in Toronto

Thinking of improving the lighting and atmosphere in your home? A skylight is a great way to do so. A living room that isn’t getting the light it needs, an attic without much wall space, or a bathroom you want to maintain privacy in – all are great places and reasons to get yourself a skylight. However, there’s more to getting a skylight than just buying it; it has to be installed too. Aluplex is here to help. Commercial and residential skylight installation is kind of our thing.

Benefits of Installing a Skylight

There are many benefits to residential skylight installation. The most obvious one is the improved lighting, but there’s more than that. The benefits largely depend upon the room.

Bathrooms

Bathroom skylights are great for adding lighting to your bathroom. However, the best part of using a skylight over a normal window is the privacy. Keep your skylight open while showering. By doing so, you can get great airflow and prevent molding and moisture damage. 

Furthermore, unless you have someone climbing on your room, no one is going to be able to see you inside. There’s no need to worry about covering up before stepping out of the shower. You don’t have to find the perfect balance between keeping the curtain closed but getting airflow through a standard window. Get all the airflow you need with no extra hassle.

Bedrooms

Residential skylight installation in bedrooms comes with the benefit of being able to see the night sky. Additional light during the daytime is great, but what’s better than lying in bed at night and getting a clear view of the stars? The bigger the skylight, the better the view.

Attics

Attics don’t come with a lot of wall space. You may be able to install a window on either end. However, if those ends are far away from each other or are walled off, you’re left with only the angled roof. Standard windows aren’t made for being at an angle. Rain water resting on them can mean acquiring immediate leaks. Skylights, on the other hand, are made for exactly that. Skylights are installed in a way that prevents water pooling, but shows water resistance anyway. Prevent disaster by investing in a skylight for your attic space.

Hallways

Hallways may not have any additional benefits outside of more light. However, that’s the only benefit you need. Long hallways can get really dark – especially in the evening. Plus, they usually don’t have an exterior wall to build a window into. If you want all-day ambient lighting in your hallway, a skylight is the perfect way to achieve that.

Are There Blinds for Skylights?

One of the biggest concerns people have about skylights is being unable to block the light from them throughout the day. However, what many people don’t know is that there are blinds for skylights. Shades fitted into side channels are the perfect solution for blocking direct sunlight from your skylight. These blinds can be automated, so that you can open and close them from your phone or other smart device. Or, if you’d rather go for something manual, you can close them with a lightweight pole with a hook on the end. 

Ordering a Skylight

If you’re interested in improving your home with a residential skylight installation, Aluplex is here to help. Just give us a call if you have questions or would like to make your order today.

Commercial Skylight Repair for Toronto Businesses

February 28, 2023 By Webmaster

Commercial Skylight Repair for Toronto Businesses

A commercial skylight breaking is nothing to ignore. It’s also not something you should let any old maintenance man attempt to fix. Large skylights breaking or leaking can lead to thousands in property damage due to rain and other outdoor intrusions. So, what do you do with it? Easy: call us at Aluplex and get commercial skylight repair services from professionals.

Do Commercial Skylights Break Often?

Commercial skylight breaks are not a frequent occurrence. These windows are made to last and hold their own. However, once in a while, something can happen to cause damage. Like any part of a building, commercial skylights are not impervious to breaks. Whether it’s something hitting the window, a building shifting position, or something else, you need professional help to fix it. 

Replace Broken Commercial Skylights

If your commercial skylight has broken, you may need to replace it. Or, more specifically, you may need to replace a pane. It is uncommon for a commercial skylight to break so completely that the entire thing must be replaced. Large skylights, like the ones installed in commercial buildings, are often made up of many smaller window parts, which can be replaced by themselves.

However, if you have other reasons for replacing a skylight, we can help. Sometimes an old skylight just keeps having problem after problem. In those cases, it can be less of a headache to rip it out and put in a new one from a more reliable company. Another situation may be that you dislike the way your old one looks and are more interested in another skylight style. In any case, Aluplex is here to help. We’ve been reliably serving the GTA for many years and would be happy to serve you next.

Repair Leaking Commercial Skylights

If your skylight is simply leaking, it may be an even easier fix than replacing part or all of it. Sometimes, a leaking commercial skylight is simply in need of some epoxy or a tightened screw. In any case, it takes a trained eye to find the right solution. So, give us a call and we’ll send out one of our service members to check out your skylight.

Why Commercial Skylight Repair Should Be Done by Professionals

Now you may be asking the age old question, “Why?” Why does a skylight need to be repaired by a skylight professional only? What it comes down to is that with years of experience in specifically skylights, we know what to look for. We know the brands and we know the designs and how they may be flawed. It’s our expertise. Even a regular window repairman might not know the first thing about large, commercial skylights. When you get someone with the right expertise, you can have your skylight fixed quickly and competently. So, don’t waste your time or money, let us know how we can help and we’ll be happy to assist.

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.

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.

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!
