Question 2

How long does installation take?

Accepted Answer

Most residential projects are completed in 1-2 days. Larger homes or custom orders may take longer. We'll provide a timeline during your consultation.

Question 3

Can windows be installed in winter?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Our installers are trained for Quebec winters. We use proper insulation techniques to minimize heat loss during installation, ensuring your home stays comfortable.

Question 4

Will new windows reduce noise?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Triple-pane glass and proper sealing can reduce outside noise by up to 50%, perfect for busy Montreal streets.

Sound reduction is measured in STC (Sound Transmission Class).

Typical performance:
• Standard double-pane: STC 28–30
• Standard triple-pane: STC 30–34
• Laminated double or triple: STC 35–40+

Each 10-point increase = perceived as cutting noise roughly in half.

So going from STC 28 to STC 38 feels like ~50% noise reduction.

But standard triple-pane alone does not automatically equal 50%.

Question 5

What does the warranty cover?

Accepted Answer

Our lifetime limited warranty covers manufacturing defects, seal failure, and hardware issues. Installation workmanship is guaranteed for 10 years.

Pella warranties cover manufacturing defects in window and door components. Coverage varies by product line and component (glass, frame, hardware, finishes, etc.), so we'll confirm the exact terms for the product you choose.

Question 6

What financing options are available?

Accepted Answer

We offer flexible financing with terms from 12 to 120 months, low interest rates, and no prepayment penalties. Payments can start as low as $99/month.

Investing in high-performance windows and doors shouldn't delay your plans. We offer financing programs with flexible terms, competitive rates, and manageable monthly payments — so you can move forward with confidence.

Ask our team about current promotions and available options.

Question 7

Do I need a permit to replace windows?

Accepted Answer

In most cases, a simple window replacement (same size opening) doesn't require a permit in Montreal. However, changing window sizes or locations may require one. We can advise during your consultation.

Question 8

What rebates are available?

Accepted Answer

Quebec's Rénoclimat program and the federal Canada Greener Homes program offer rebates for qualifying window replacements. We can help you navigate the application process.

Question 9

How do I prepare for installation day?

Accepted Answer

Clear the area around windows (move furniture 3-4 feet away), remove window treatments, and ensure clear access to work areas. We'll provide a detailed checklist before installation.

Question 10

What's the difference between vinyl, wood, and fiberglass?

Accepted Answer

Vinyl is low-maintenance and budget-friendly. Wood offers classic beauty and natural insulation. Fiberglass provides superior strength and minimal expansion. We'll help you choose the best option for your needs.
