Encore Windows & Doors

Needed to replace one storm door and install a second. Doors not standard size, could not buy at Home Depot or Rona. Home Depot does not do custom installs. Job done by Encore; had one small problem, they came next day to fix it. Professional and pleasant to deal with.

Last summer my wife and I purchased a third floor condominium in Toronto's St. Lawrence Market area. Upon moving in we realized that the street noise from a neighboring restaurant caused a problem. In searching for a solution we found
Encore Windows & Doors' sound reduction windows. We had the sound reduction windows installed. The reduction in noise has been amazing. We no longer experience any problems of street noise or noisy restaurant patrons. We do highly recommend the sound reduction system and Encore Windows and Doors.

Encore Home Improvements - great group of talented people. They worked with me on different types of windows and the pro's and con's to my questions regarding what was best for my home. Their suggestions were well appreciated. I took "most" of their advice and am now thrilled. My new windows and doors look terrific. I would definitely recommend this company and the people that represent them. Job well done Michael H - thank you for everything!

Encore Home Improvements supplied me with curtious and excellent advice regarding my window and door purchases as well as supplied me with timely and professional installation. A delight to deal with, i will recommend their professional services to everyone. Thx Encore. Gabe

As their name suggests, Encore Home Improvements will leave you in a standing ovation for more! We have received nothing but compliments about our door from our family and friends. From start to finish, the boys at Encore, in particular Anthony Gucciardi, were professional and very accomodating to our special needs. We recommend them highly.

After doing extensive research Encore delivered just like they said. There salespeople and installers were so professional and answered all my needs. The quality of there product and installation is exactly what they promised.I would strongly recommend them to anyone.

My experience with Encore was amazing they came and quoted on my front entrance door system and explained in detail what had to done and the quality of there door system. I received 3 other quotes and nobody wanted to take the time like Encore. There not the cheapest but are very reasonable. Remember you can't put a price on peace of mind.

I just wanted to comment on the job that Encore did for us. We have a 20 year old home with wooden windows (builder grade no less) that needed replacing. Once we made the decision to change them out, we contacted 4 companies and got quotes from 3. After much research and interviewing, here what we found...

The window industry is crazy insane with lots of fly-by-night outfits, deals for "no money down" and 0% interest deals (which really aren't) but the biggest issue (and the one that really pushed up to go with Encore) was the Window Wise certification.

Lots of companies will claim to be WW certified for installation (which is hard/costly to get/keep) but what they really mean is that the windows they are buying are WW certified (which is pretty common and not that hard). It is definitely not the same thing and installation aspect is at least as important as the brand of window (and don't let anyone tell you otherwise). It's also a great question to ask when interviewing window companies as you can go check on the WW website to see if they are registered (and being square with you). As there are something like 2000+ window companies and only 40 or so are WW certified, it's pretty easy to separate the wheat from the chafe (or so we hoped).

The Sales Rep was very knowlegdgeable (to be fair, so were the others) and clearly understood what made his brand of window "better". I felt that he was not just trying to make a sale but rather trying to educate a consumer. Very comfortable to deal with and was willing to be flexible on some of the custom things we wanted.

After we had picked Encore and placed a deposit, we crossed our fingers and like most buyers hoped we had done the right thing. As it turns out, we had absolutely no reason to be concerned.George was amazing! He came by to take all the measurement and make sure that all of our questions we answered. He loves his work and genuinely wanted to make sure that we would be happy with the results (which we were). He came when he said he would, worked his butt off when he was hear, cleaned up his mess everyday and was very easy to deal with. To top it all off, the quality of his work is flawless and leaves nothing at all to be desired. In addition, Encore only uses the best quality foams and sealers (which many of the cheaper companies don't) and I now have no doubt that these windows will outlast us...

One last thing I should mention is price. I realize that I could have "saved" a few thousand dollars by going with an other company but I really think that you get what you pay for in this case. It just didn't seem to be worth it to have to live with cheap windows and poor installation, especially knowing that you have to "look" at them everyday and you could have done better. At the time, it killed me to spend the extra cash but in hindsight, it was the best money we ever spent.

Hi David, Sound reduction is awesome. I am super happy. Micheal was thorogh and proffesional, there was a manufacture error and it was fixed immediately. Just need the blinds back up and I'll feel like a million bucks. Thanks, Eric
