Ambia Windows And Doors Inc.

Ambia was one of the companies that responded quickly to my request for quotes.. I had four (4) quotes from companies that I did my research for and it was an easy choice to go with them. All the reviews are good and even though they were not the cheapest -they met all the points that I was looking for.
Cameron -a very nice young man :) came in as scheduled (nov 1st) to show some of their previous jobs, and explained the difference between the brick to brick and retrofit installation.. He took the initial measurements -and promised to send the quotes within the week.
After 2 days -I received a very detailed quote of both installation -itemized with all the measurements and materials, and warranty information, even comes with some references and pictures as samples.
After a week, I finally decided to go with Ambia as they were the best in my opinion among the companies that I got quotes from. I signed the contract on Nov 13th - via e-mail correspondence -the best way for me becoz not only did I have a record of the quote and contract but I also have easy access to the documents in case I need them for reference in the future.
George (I hope I spelled it right) -the installer came by on Nov 27 for the final measurements.
Tony called in the 3rd week of January to let me know that the windows and sliding doors are ready, so he would like to schedule the installation within the next few days. We agreed to do the install on Jan. 25th and he e-mailed a prep list that I can refer to before the day of the installation.

George and a young guy (sorry my mom forgot to ask for his name) came before 9am. My parents were home so they were able to see the progress and they were very impressed as george and his assistant were very fast installing all the windows and patio door by the end of the day. Cameron even came by to check in. They left cleaning up as best as they could.
The next day, George came in a little after 8am and finished the framing and all the trimmings. He was all done after lunch.

I did not do the review early on, as I want to make sure that there would be no issues with the installation -I am very particular with contractors as I myself work with an engg firm. And I can say that Ambia has exceedingly met my expectations, and would gladly recommend them to my friends and neighbors. Thank you to Cameron, Tony and George and his assistant for a job well done.

Scope of work: Brick to brick installation for one (1) bay window, three (3) windows on the 2nd floor rooms, two (2) windows on the main floor and a sliding backyard/patio door. With colonial brickmould style. Set timeframe -7 to 9 weeks.

For reference. 2 photos showed the old windows (with obvious wear and tear) before installation. All the rest of the pictures are the new install.

We bought a 30 year old house and the windows were in terrible shape, we needed windows ASAP and Tony was extremely helpful in making that happen. He walked us through the government rebate program which had just come out, made sure we would be eligible, was very patient as we made a few changes to color and design of windows, he worked late to requote us a few times and to keep the price down as much as he could while balancing getting the windows as quick as he could. I have to mention Simon and Chris who came to measure as well as install, Simon answered all of our questions, addresses any concerns we had with the installation and was pleasure to work with. The windows themselves look great, seem to be high quality and have really changed the look of the house. Highly recommend this great team of window experts.

Ambia doors was easy to deal with from beginning to end.

Quote, measure and install were all great experiences. Good communication throughout.

I will use them for bigger jobs going forward.

We were very impressed first of all
With Michael when he came to give us a quote. He is very experienced and knowledgeable. Chris the installer leads a very talented team. They were are all friendly and did excellent work. Each day everything was left clean

100% satisfied. Thank you to Kyle and Misha for a job well done. The team was punctual, polite and the job site was always left clean and tidy. They took care in preparation for the demolition and installation. Would highly recommend this crew and will continue to recommend to friends and family.

We just had our front doors replaced after a few years of doing research. I can say we definitely choose the right place and we couldn’t be happier with the results. We dealt with several different people and they were all top notch. Michael was our salesman and he was great. He is very knowledge, patient and gave advice when needed but not pushy at all. He steered us in the right direction when we needed guidance. Tony arranged the installation and was very accommodating and professional. The installers also did a wonderful job. We had a little issue and they promptly fixed it. Micheal and the installer were just as accessible, pleasant and helpful after the project was completed than in the initial contacts. We also need our back door replaced and we will 100% go back to Ambia. I love our door so much I wanted to share photos of the door inside and outside. We would definitely recommend them.

We needed to replace the front and side door of our house. We called several companies and one of them was Ambia, We decided to go with Ambia because we felt comfortable talking, asking questions and for their professionalism and price.
We are very pleased of working with Cameron (sales person). He was always on top of things from beginning to completion. The crew of installers did an amazing job from removing the doors to installing the new 2 doors. Dealing with Tony was great; he kept us informed of the progress and installation of the doors.
If we need to change our windows in the future without a doubt we will choose Ambia again.

The Ambia's service was excellent! The installation staff was courteous and professional. They took great care and showed respect for my home and the integrity of their work. They cleaned up thoroughly after themselves, and in half a day my home had new front windows. I am also pleased with the products used, and I am grateful for the thorough, experienced guidance on product selection (Thank you, Cameron). I simply don't have the words to adequately express my pleasure with the entire experience. 100% rating and I will be awarding them another project shortly.

I actually found Ambia on Homestars along with a few other door companies. I sent all 4 door companies requests for quotes directly through the Homestars site and guess what - only 2 responded and of the 2, Ambia had much better customer service and prices right out of the gate. The other guys said my door was going to be about $4k, Ambia quoted me half that!

The sales person who came to quote was friendly and knowledgeable and gave me some good advice and realistic timelines. Yes 8-10 weeks sounds like a lot but you are getting a custom made door!

A week leading up to installation I received an email confirming day/time of install along with the installers name and phone number in case I needed to reach out it him - loved the transparency and constant communication.

Day of Install Kyle and his crew showed up and they were all very pleasant and helpful guys. My old door was so misaligned in the frame that you could see light coming in around the door and feel the wind coming through the cracks. Well the team from Ambia stripped out my old door, replaced the frame that was rotted and did an excellent job sealing it
up, even the caulking was absolutely perfect! They did a great job cleaning up when they were done and I am sooooo happy with our new door! Thanks Ambia - will definitely be using them again when it’s time windows and back door and will be recommending to others :)

Tony (the owner) and Norman (salesman) by far has been the best contractors I have ever dealt with. Both Tony and Norman take extreme pride in the work that they do. Tony provided me with a very detailed quote of the work that was going to be done. Norman came by, took some measures and provided me with all the information I needed to know about the product I was looking to purchase and get installed. Tony and Norman carry very high standards for themselves and are very honest people. Tony's crew came by and did a fantastic job installing my sliding door. His crew was friendly, neat with the installation and excellent with clean-up. After the project was complete, both Norman and Tony called me to ensure that I was completely satisfied with the work that was done. This is by far the best experience I have ever had. Thank you Tony and Norman and the crew for your services. You will be recommended to all.
