Siding Vancouver offers Vinyl Windows for your home

Vinyl windows are one of the most cost-effective options available for homeowners, especially when compared to metal or wood frames. The windows we offer come standard with double glazing, which helps reduce noise and improve insulation, Low-E glass to limit harmful UV rays, and argon gas filling to minimize condensation.

If you’re looking to replace your windows while staying within budget, vinyl windows are an excellent choice. A lower price doesn’t mean lower quality. The windows we install are built to last and are fitted by our experienced in-house installation team.

Upgrading to new vinyl windows can significantly improve your home’s energy efficiency—helping to lower your heating costs and keep more money in your pocket.

Long term cost savings

Replacing old, drafty windows with new vinyl windows can lead to significant long-term cost savings. Vinyl windows offer the best of both worlds: an affordable upfront cost and an excellent return on investment. If you’re planning to sell your home and still have older windows, upgrading to new ones can be a smart move. Many homebuyers consider the efficiency and condition of a home’s windows when making their purchasing decision.

Vinyl windows are available in 2 options:

We Do New Construction Windows, and Replacement Windows

Many homeowners assume that if they’re renovating their home, they must install replacement windows. However, that’s not always the case—you can also choose to install new construction windows.

Even if you’re not planning to replace your siding, this option is still possible. The process typically involves:

  • Cutting back the existing siding around the window by about 3.5” or 5.5”, depending on the desired look

  • Installing a new moisture barrier, including a peel-and-stick waterproof membrane at the sill (bottom), jambs (sides), and header (top) of the window opening

This approach allows the new window to be properly sealed and integrated into the wall system.

Our installation process

We begin by applying a bead of polyurethane sealant along the header and jambs of the window opening. The window is then carefully set into place, and flashing is installed above it to help protect against water intrusion.

Once the window is secured, new trim is installed using either comb-face wood or fibre cement trim. Finally, a bead of polyurethane caulking is applied between the existing siding and the trim, as well as between the trim and the window, creating a clean, weather-resistant seal.

The best time to change your windows is when you change your siding

This said, the best time to change your siding is also the best time to change your windows! The reason for this is because you will save the cost of the above mentioned labor of cutting the existing siding away (if it is stucco, this can be costly).
