new door

Gem Windows followed through promptly with requests. The installation of our door was done quickly and effectively. Returning phone calls promptly is an area where the company could improve their service as we had several occasions when we had to wait for a few days for a reply to a query. Otherwise, we were very satisfied with Gem.

Hi John,

I have looked up your name in our system and realized that all of our jobs were installed before December 31st, 2009. There was one door where there was a supplier issue which we directed immediately to them.

I will agree with you that due to the overwhelming response to the Home Renovation Tax Credit there was a delay in installations. The product took much longer to produce due to the increased demands on manufacturers and our crews were working days, nights and weekends to accommodate our clientele. It was certainly a government program that obviously worked for everyone.

Screen door installed and a dining room window

Excellent company. I used their services also in the fall of 2009 for the installation of basement windows. They were professional, very clean and informative workers. I found the quality to be excellent and the cost was comparative if not less than other suppliers. Very pleased with this year and last years services by Gem Windows and Doors.

windows replacement

Had to argue with the younger polish guy regarding taking his shoe off before going upstairs. It's their safety shoe but I told him his shoes are so dirty. That's the time he went out to get the white cloth and lay it on the stairs and carpet
My family walks barefoot on the carpet upstairs and its hard for me to clean the entire upstairs if you know what I mean.
But with regards to doing their job their ok.

Thank you for the feedback and it has been addressed. It is a health and safety policy that they wear work shoes during the whole installation. We apologize for the inconvenience and I'm happy to hear that the installer took appropriate measures to rectify the situation.

Thank you for your patronage.

Replacement of main floor windows

We replaced the ground floor windows in our Etobicoke sidesplit and we were very pleased with all aspects of the job by Gem Windows. The pricing was reasonable and the installation met all of our expectations. There was also a prompt friendly response to all of our questions.

Replacement Windows

We were worried about selecting a company to replace 6 windows in our house as there were so many companies to choose from and some window companies have a bad reputation. We selected Gem Windows and Doors based on a referral from a neighbor and we couldn't be happier. From the initial sales call through the installation process, everything went extremely well and everything moved along very quickly. The price was very competitive and the windows are very high quality. Overall a great experience.
