    screen for door and push bar for screen door

    I had a small job but Encore Home Improvements did the work for me. The service was great, they were honest and reliable and they were willing to try something different. The quality of the work they did was excellent and the price was reasonable. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

    Excellent Work

    Very impressed by the windows and doors we had installed. The service was excellent and the installers were very professional and did great work. I would highly recommend Encore Home Improvments for your windows or doors.

    Install decorative windows

    We would like to express our thanks for the wonderful job your company did in our home. We have received many compliments. In addition to creating and installing our new stain glass windows, we valued your knowledge and assistance during the selection/installation process. The beauty, quality and workmanship of the windows have not only met our expectations but also exceeded them. The men who installed the windows were prompt, courteous and extremely thorough. We very much appreciated the personal service and would not hesitate to use your company again in the future or to recommend your services to others. Thanks again for “enlightening” our home. Sincerely, Sergio & Cassandra Dalla Nora

    Sound Proof Windows

    Encore Home Improvements installed sound proof windows in our bedroom that look neat and cut out undesirable noise. I have bionic hearing and I hear nothing! Windows look great and no mess left behind from installation. In fact, this company on its own initiative a few days after installation, contacted my husband to inform him that they had remade a panel of the window that they wished to reinstall immediately. Most likely the installer at the time judged that this panel did not fit adequately and communicated this back to the company and ensured the quality by sending someone back to finish the job to perfection! Very professional and trustworthy! The product also looks and works to perfection! Thank you Encore Home Improvements for making the experience hassle free and and satisfying a very scrutinizing client with an excellent product!

    Recording Studio windows

    I just renovated/built a new recording studio in my home, which has a lot of window space so I needed windows (one piece as well as sliders) that REALLY prevented sound from coming in and lot of sound from going out. I'm very pleased to say Encore's windows perform surprisingly well! Mike Montecalvo was very pleasant to deal with....very patient and great at explaining the various options for soundproof windows. His crew did the installation very professionally. They took their time and explained their methods very well. Although the windows took a while to manufacture, to be fair they were created for quite a unique application, and the results are great. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone who's interested in getting windows to cut down on outside noise. Gary.

    Window replacement

    We've been working with Encore Windows for a few years now, slowly replacing all of our windows. While the initial installation was a bit of a disaster (they were trying to replace our bay window in one piece rather than 2 pieces so it would look better on the outside but after 2 failed attempts at getting the window fitting properly, they had to replace it with 3 separate), it was their dedication and genuine and sincere approach to make it all right (even at their own cost) that made us go back to them time and time again. We've replaced virtually all of our windows with triple glaze and the difference has been absolutely remarkable. For years we dealt with condensation on the inside of our windows anytime the temperatures dipped below -10C. Now, they're completely dry and we no longer worry about mold issues. While triple glaze is more expensive, we have found that the price difference is negligible when you see the end results and the difference it makes. In addition, we got the solar shield low E glass and it's absolutely remarkable what a temperature difference we've experienced. With our previous windows (western exposure) in the summers if we didn't pull down the blinds our kitchen and bedroom were easily 30C+ on a hot humid day. Now, it never goes above 24C, even without the AC on so the amount of electricity we're saving by not having the AC running all the time is amazing. We've worked with Dave and Diane in the office and they've always been very helpful, attentive and considerate of our needs. In regards to the installation - we've gotten to know Mike very well now and he's amazing. Always professional and gets the job done well and quickly. They show up on time and the job site is clean when they leave. We've liked working with Encore so much, we've also had them replace Christine's mother's windows and front door. We highly recommend them.

    B quiet windows and installation

    I live on a noisy street and was having trouble sleeping. Came across Encore's Bquiet windows online. I spoke with Anthony and he helped me with my purchase by not only promptly replying to my emails and calls, but by also enabling me to see a recent installation of the Bquiet series nearby. The installation was fast and professional, and the staff was very helpful and enthusiastic. Not only that, the windows are AMAZING! After four years of sleeping with earplugs, I am now able to sleep earplug free and like a baby. These windows are worth every penny.

    Supply and install two soundproof window

    The master bedroom in my condo faces Bloor Street East. Traffic noise, pedestrians talking and sirens from ambulances and fire engines bothered me at night. In another property, I had tried using Plexiglas for soundproofing but did not find it effective at reducing the noise. An Internet search led me to Encore Home Improvements, and a check on HomeStars convinced me to get in touch with that company. I am glad I did. From start to finish, I was impressed by the professionalism displayed by the staff of Encore Home Improvements. They really strive to do a perfect job. The soundproof windows look great (actually you don’t really notice them, which is the idea). They were installed almost two weeks ago and they work. Traffic and pedestrian noise have disappeared. Sirens can still be heard but seem less close. Strangely enough, so far I have noticed them only during the day and not at night. I am sure they are still sirens every night on Bloor Street near the fire hall just east of Sherbourne. Probably because my sleep is deeper I have not heard them. Thank you, Encore Home Improvements!

    Security glass and door

    I can't beleive these guys! Encore came in and replaced a security office door and installed security glass in our rolling doors. The pride these guys took in the work is reminisend of how things were in the old days. When they were finishing up I went to take away the garbage but they already had done that. When I went to sweep up the work area. it was cleaner than the rest of the shop. I had window cleaner in hand but they also had the glass cleaned. I had to nail them on something so I really started inspecting the door. The contract said the existng hardware was to be used and to my surprise they put new hardware and didn't charge me extra. I phoned the owners and ask them who do they think they are? providing this kind of service, they shrugged and said this is their norm. Thank you Encore for providing me with an Encore performance.
