We'll give you a precise schedule in your written quote so you can plan accordingly.
Absolutely. Our installers treat your home with respect. We protect interior floors and furniture, remove all old product packaging and old windows or doors, and leave the job site clean before we leave.
Energy-efficient window and door upgrades may qualify for federal or provincial rebates in Manitoba. Programs change periodically, so we recommend checking Natural Resources Canada for current incentives. Our team can advise you on energy-efficiency certifications for products we carry.

Windows

We carry a full range of window styles including casement, double-hung, awning, sliding, bay, bow, and picture windows. Our flagship product is the WeatherMaster 4-Track window, engineered specifically for Manitoba's extreme climate. Visit our Services page or showroom to see the full selection.
The WeatherMaster 4-Track is a heavy-duty storm window system designed specifically for Canadian prairie winters. It features four independent glass tracks that dramatically reduce cold air infiltration, and offers superior energy efficiency compared to standard windows. It's our most popular product for whole-home replacements in Winnipeg. Learn more.
Common signs that it's time for new windows include: visible drafts or cold spots near windows in winter, condensation between the glass panes (indicating seal failure), difficulty opening or closing, visible rot or damage to frames, and noticeably higher heating/cooling bills. If your windows are more than 20 years old, a free assessment can determine if replacement would save you money in the long run.
Yes. We carry Energy Star certified windows designed for Canada's cold climate zones. These windows meet strict performance standards for insulation value (U-factor) and solar heat gain, helping reduce your energy bills year-round.

Doors

We install a wide variety of doors including entry and front doors, patio and sliding doors, storm doors, French doors, and garden doors. We carry products in steel, fibreglass, and wood — all designed for Manitoba's climate. See our doors page for more details.
Both are excellent choices for Winnipeg homes. Steel doors are very durable, secure, and economical, though they can dent and may eventually rust if the finish is compromised. Fibreglass doors offer better insulation, won't dent or rust, and can be finished to mimic real wood grain. Fibreglass tends to be a better long-term investment for energy efficiency. Our specialists can help you choose the best fit for your home and budget.
In some cases, yes — if the existing frame is in good condition and square. However, if the frame shows signs of rot, damage, or is out of square, we strongly recommend replacing the entire door unit to ensure a proper seal and long-term performance. We'll assess this during the free in-home quote.

Sunrooms & Enclosures

A 3-season room is designed for use in spring, summer, and fall. It uses screened or glass panels but is not insulated for Manitoba winters — temperatures inside will follow the outdoors when it's cold. A 4-season sunroom is fully insulated and can be connected to your home's heating and cooling system, making it a true living space you can enjoy year-round, even in Winnipeg's winters.
In most cases, yes. Any permanent addition to a home typically requires a building permit from the City of Winnipeg. Our team is experienced with the permitting process and can guide you through what's required. We ensure all our sunroom installations meet local building codes.
A typical sunroom installation takes 3–7 days from start to finish, depending on size, complexity, and weather conditions. Larger custom projects or 4-season rooms that require foundation work may take longer. We'll provide a detailed schedule in your project quote.

Warranty & After-Sale Support

We stand behind our work with both manufacturer warranties on the products themselves and our own workmanship guarantee on the installation. WeatherMaster windows come with a lifetime frame warranty. Full warranty details are reviewed with you during your consultation and are included in your written agreement.
Simply call us at (204) 775-1400. We take after-sale service seriously — we've been serving Winnipeg since 1999 and our reputation depends on standing behind every installation. We'll assess the issue and make it right under warranty where applicable.
Yes. We are a BBB Accredited Business with an A+ rating. You can verify our accreditation directly on the Better Business Bureau website. We've been serving Winnipeg homeowners since 1999.
