Assisted Review

An assisted review is collected by a contractor on behalf of the homeowner after their work is completed. The homeowner must confirm the text of the review and may make any changes she or he deems appropriate. The homeowner then assigns the contractor a review score out of 10. Assisted reviews receive the same scrutiny as other reviews and must follow our review guidelines.

I had obtained 4 estimates in 2014 to have this work done but put it off due to the cost at that time, but I still had those estimates. One review on Homestars for Windowrama said simply " Windowrama will be the least expensive quote you will get, so he is the only call you need to make." Since I had the 4 previous quotes for comparison, some including the very same brand and model of windows, I called and Windowrama scheduled an appointment within a couple of days and arrived at the appointed time. Paul was thorough and took measurements of all windows on that Thursday and I received the complete, detailed 6 page quote 2 days later by email. As expected, his quote was lower than any of the previous ones from 4 years earlier even though I am certain that labor costs, etc., have gone up since then.
We scheduled the installation for about a month later due to a trip out of town I had to make and his crew showed up promptly the first morning as scheduled to begin the process which went very smoothly. Once the first window was removed, they immediately begin replacing it while beginning the removal process of the next window so that at no time were there more than 3 windows opened which was a great help since it was the middle of July and very hot.
They did just over 1/2 the windows the first day, working until well past 5:00 PM and came back promptly the next morning to complete the job. The installation crew was very thorough and after one small ding in the colorcrete finish on one outside window sill was pointed out they were very careful to protect the colorcrete finish on my cement block home on the entire rest of the job. They were also very meticulous in their cleanup once each window was installed. There was nothing that I had to do after the installation to touch up damaged areas either inside or outside the home due to their care in removal and installation.
After one of the double wide windows was installed I noticed that the frame of one upper sash was not straight (a manufacturing defect) and Paul said he would order a replacement sash and stop by to install it once if was received. He called me about 10 days after the installation was complete and brought the replacement sash by and lett me keep the older one to use in case of another window was ever broken.
I was at home the entire time of the installation and very impressed with how carefull the installers were to limit the "mess" made by the removal of the old aluminum frame windows and how meticulous they were in their cleanup in each room afterr the windows were installed, thoroughly vacuuming the carpet and whole area after they were done with each window.
I would highly recommend Windowrama for any replacement window work needed. I also agree that if you don't want to bother with multiple quotes, just know that Windowrama will be the lowest anyway when comparing to other quotes for the sample products to be installed. Great job done at a good price as well.

Budget windows

I had to get additional 7 windows, and my budget was a bit tight. The original windows were metal and raggedy. Paul came to my home with sample windows and we discussed the best options for what I wanted. We decided on 4 large side-sliding window's plus screens. Paul worked with my budget and did not try to oversell what I needed. I ended up with insulated panes that will be way more energy efficient in the winter since that room is not heated. The installation went as promised -it took about 5 weeks for the windows to arrive and the installers worked quickly and professionally. The front of my house looks amazing! It was like a complete facelift for my home! Everyone who sees the windows raves about them! I love how they look and how open they make the room feel!

Glass Patio door

I had broken a sliding glass patio door over the summer and wanted it replaced before the winter began. I spent weeks reading reviews of window and glass replacement companies and Windowrama consistently had the best reviews. I called for an appraisal the week of Thanksgiving and an appraiser came within one day. Paul was on time, very friendly and efficient. He took his measurements in matter of minutes and gave me a very fair quote of $650. He said that with the holiday it would take a few weeks for the installation which was entirely reasonable. I received a call about ten days later from Alexy (Pauls brother) to set up the installation. He came the next day and did a tremendous job in replacing the glass. I have a few more projects that need to be done (window replacement and repairs on other patio doors) and I will be calling Windowrama again in the Spring to handle these jobs.

Replaced 14 windows, 1 sliding door

After much research online we decided to go with this company. I love the fact that its a small family business, where the owner takes care of you personally. I was very pleased with the whole process, from our first telephone call to WindowRama to having our windows and sliding door installed. Our telephone call was returned almost immediately. Paul did a wonderful job of explaining and demonstrating the different options in regard to new windows and gave us a wonderful price for a significant number of windows. The installation took 2 days and we couldn't be happier. The work crew arrived on time and were very professional. They caulked and capped all windows, removed all window debris, and cleaned up afterwards. We highly recommend this company.

Fixing a window

Paul took out a window and replaced it. He also took my old screen and stretched new screen over the frame. One side was all bent and he made a piece to replace it saving me money and time on getting a new screen. He was very efficient while working and cleaned up as he went. He had to put a plastic bead around the window. Since my windows were so old, a grey bead material was not available. He went to a little more trouble by spray painting it for me so it would match. I was very pleased with the whole experience.

Replaced all of our windows

There were actually two jobs involved. The first one was to replace the front awning windows that were on our front porch. The house is 75 years old and someone had put these in to replace the original screens and done a terrible job.
The owner Paul came out and gave an estimate on the energy efficient windows. The crew arrived on time, did the work, cleaned up and we were so impressed that we went ahead and had the rest of the windows replaced.
I am impressed as to how much warmer the house is and that we don't get air leaks anymore. The windows look great and we are already getting lower power bills.

Doors

One of the owners came to the house to measure and 2-3 days later sent a bid for the job. At that time I asked if we could add interior grill work and the office sent a new bid. It only added $100 to the price. I scheduled an installation appointment and the installer was actually a half-hour early. He immediately got to work. Having been in the commercial construction and commercial property management business for over 30 years I have some idea as to what to look for in a worker. Paul was professional, methodical and tidy. He actually cleaned up as he went which is a delight to see. The doors are heavy duty aluminum with a white finish and argon gas filled with low-e and enclosed grill work, and an insect proof screen door. Everything has substantial locks and the entire job and the end result are fabulous. We couldn't be happier. I would recommend them to any one who needs windows or doors.

Windowrama

I previously had 2 other window companies give me estimates which were extremely high. I paid Windowrama the same amount of money for 10 windows that the others wanted for 3-4 windows. Paul earned my trust and did not waste my time. He answered all my questions with patience and gave me all the options I needed. The installers arrived on time, were courteous and cleaned up the job well. I was thrilled with the improvement the new windows to my 50+ year old home. Paul changed a bathroom glass to obscure and did not charge me and put it in in less than a week. Installing these windows is one of the best home improvement I have ever done to my home and would recommend Windowrama to all my friends, neighbors and family.

windows

The owner Paul came to our house and, after looking at our odd sized bedroom windows and our balcony, sat with us and showed what windows he recommended plus others available. Very friendly and thorough. He answered all of our questions and made sure we were comfortable with our choices, which were his recommendations.
Within days, a man came by to remeasure, and sent the figures back to Windowrama so they could begin building our windows!
It took approx 6 weeks to receive the windows/doors. After that Paul and 3 young men brought them to our home. They were done in a bit over two hours and everything was perfect. The fit, caulking, screens, windows were all perfect. Then, once everything was approved, the guys vacuumed my carpet! No one would have known they were there except for the windows!

Wood windows

Windowrama workers removed all the old wood windows from the exterior side, and only had to come inside for a few chores. None of the drapes, wood shutters or other fixtures on the inside had to be touched. There was nothing that had to be replaced or even rearranged on the inside. The exterior was then trimmed with metallic moldings that closely matched our trim color. The work went smoothly and rapidly. Several of the windows were ordered with wood-grained vinyl that approximates the interior wood trim. This matched very well in the Family Room and Kitchen. The rest of our inside trim was white, so there was no problem with colours. The whole job took about 4 weeks from first quote to finish. After the windows were done, I had them come back and do the doors. Go with Windowrama, you will be treated like family.
