Why Burnaby Homeowners Trust The Local Window Guy

Here’s what sets us apart in Burnaby’s competitive market: we actually live here. Our team knows the difference between a 1960s split-level in Forest Glen and a brand-new condo tower in Brentwood Town Centre. We understand why Capitol Hill residents obsess over preserving their downtown views, and we’ve navigated countless strata meetings in Lougheed’s rental buildings.

More importantly, we’ve mastered the art of getting things done in this city. Need heritage approval for your Burnaby Heights character home? We’ve got connections. Strata council giving you grief about window specifications? We speak their language. Want to squeeze every dollar out of available rebates? We wrote the playbook.

The result? Faster installations, fewer headaches, and windows that actually work in Burnaby’s unique climate challenges.

Professional Window Installation

From ground-floor garden suites to 30th-floor penthouses, we install windows that work. Our Burnaby installations account for everything local builders often miss: proper drainage for our heavy rainfall, reinforcement for hillside wind loads, and thermal barriers that actually handle our temperature swings.

We’ve perfected installation techniques for Burnaby’s building boom, working efficiently in occupied buildings while maintaining the quiet professionalism that strata boards demand.

Full Window Replacement Programs

Replacing windows in Burnaby isn’t just about swapping old for new—it’s about solving problems. Those 1950s aluminum frames in your Burnaby Heights bungalow aren’t just ugly; they’re costing you hundreds in heating bills. The builder-grade windows in your Edmonds townhouse aren’t just letting in noise; they’re failing to protect your investment.

Our replacement process starts with understanding what’s not working in your current setup, then designing solutions that address Burnaby’s specific challenges: moisture management, energy efficiency, and sound control.

High-Performance Energy Solutions

Burnaby’s climate demands serious energy performance. We’re talking about windows that maintain comfortable indoor temperatures while outside conditions swing from freezing rain to blazing summer heat. Our energy-focused installations regularly cut heating and cooling costs by 25-40%, with some heritage home upgrades seeing even greater savings.

Every energy window we install qualifies for maximum available rebates, but more importantly, they deliver comfort that transforms how you experience your home.

Architectural and Custom Designs

Burnaby’s architectural diversity requires creative solutions. We craft custom windows for mid-century modern homes that honor their clean lines while delivering contemporary performance. Heritage properties get period-accurate windows with modern insulation technology. New construction receives architectural elements that enhance both aesthetics and functionality.

Our custom work includes everything from massive picture windows that frame Burnaby Mountain views to intricate heritage reproductions that satisfy the city’s most demanding preservation requirements.

Specialty Applications

Sound Control Systems: Living near transit corridors, major roads, or flight paths requires specialized acoustic solutions. Our soundproof installations dramatically reduce noise transmission while maintaining natural light and ventilation.

View Optimization: Burnaby’s hillside locations offer spectacular vistas that deserve proper framing. We design window configurations that maximize views while managing glare, UV exposure, and thermal performance.

Climate Protection: Burnaby’s weather extremes demand robust protection. Our weather-resistant systems handle everything from driving rain to summer heat waves, maintaining seal integrity and performance for decades.

Some Neighborhoods we Work in Langey DC 

Metrotown: Solving Urban Density Challenges

Metrotown represents everything exciting and challenging about modern urban living. The energy is incredible, but so is the noise. The convenience is unmatched, but so are the energy costs in those glass towers.

We specialize in transforming Metrotown living experiences through strategic window upgrades. Our noise-reduction installations regularly cut street and transit sounds by 70% or more. Energy-efficient retrofits slash utility bills while improving year-round comfort. Most importantly, we navigate the complex approval processes that govern Metrotown’s high-rise buildings, ensuring smooth installations that meet both strata requirements and resident expectations.

Brentwood: Supporting Rapid Neighborhood Evolution

Brentwood is Burnaby’s success story—a former suburban mall area transformed into a thriving urban community. But this rapid growth brings challenges: construction noise, increased density, and the need for windows that support both family life and urban convenience.

Our Brentwood approach focuses on future-proofing homes for continued neighborhood development while addressing current comfort needs. We install windows that filter construction noise, manage heat gain from increased building density, and provide the energy efficiency that growing families need to manage utility costs.

Burnaby Heights: Honoring Heritage While Embracing Efficiency

Burnaby Heights captures the best of established neighborhood living: mature trees, solid construction, and genuine community character. But many homes still feature their original 1950s-60s windows—charming reminders of a simpler era that happen to be energy disasters.

We’ve perfected the art of heritage-sensitive upgrades that preserve architectural character while delivering modern performance. Our Heights installations typically reduce energy consumption by 30-50% while maintaining the visual elements that make these neighborhoods special. We work closely with long-term residents who understand that protecting their investment means balancing preservation with practical improvements.

Capitol Hill: Maximizing Views and Managing Exposure

Capitol Hill offers some of Burnaby’s most spectacular views—and most challenging weather exposure. South-facing hillside locations get intense summer sun and driving winter storms. North-facing properties deal with limited light and persistent dampness.

Our Capitol Hill expertise centers on custom solutions that optimize each home’s unique orientation and exposure. View-focused installations maximize natural light while managing glare and UV damage. Weather-resistant systems provide superior protection against Burnaby’s most extreme conditions. Energy-efficient designs ensure that those stunning views don’t come with stunning utility bills.

South Burnaby: Practical Solutions for Growing Communities

South Burnaby’s multicultural communities need window solutions that work for real families dealing with real budgets. No sales pressure, no unnecessary upgrades—just honest advice about what will make the biggest difference in your home’s comfort and efficiency.

We focus on high-impact improvements that provide immediate benefits: replacing the most problematic windows first, maximizing available rebates, and using cost-effective materials that deliver lasting performance. Our South Burnaby clients appreciate straightforward communication and pricing that respects diverse economic situations.

Deer Lake: Luxury Installations for Distinctive Properties

Deer Lake represents Burnaby’s most prestigious residential area, where heritage estates and modern luxury homes demand the highest standards. Our Deer Lake clients expect perfection in both performance and aesthetics—and they get it.

We provide white-glove service that includes detailed planning, minimal disruption, and flawless execution. Heritage properties receive museum-quality reproductions with modern performance features. Contemporary homes get architectural installations that enhance both property values and daily living experiences. Every project receives the attention to detail that luxury properties deserve.

Lougheed: Efficient Solutions for Transit-Oriented Living

Lougheed’s transit-oriented development creates unique challenges: high resident turnover, diverse building standards, and the constant background noise of urban activity. Our approach emphasizes efficient installations that work within tight timelines while delivering maximum impact.

We’ve streamlined our Lougheed processes to minimize disruption in rental buildings while maximizing performance improvements. Quick-turnaround projects get the same quality materials and installation standards as our largest custom homes, ensuring that every resident benefits from professional window solutions.

Willingdon Heights: Investment-Grade Improvements

Willingdon Heights serves both homeowners and investors who need improvements that enhance both immediate comfort and long-term property values. Our approach balances cost-effectiveness with durability, ensuring that window investments pay dividends for years to come.

We help property owners prioritize improvements for maximum impact, whether that means replacing the most energy-wasteful windows first or upgrading units that will see the highest rental returns. Transparent pricing and honest assessments help investors make informed decisions about their properties.

Navigating Burnaby Regulations and Incentives

Rebate Maximization

The CleanBC Better Homes program offers substantial incentives—up to $2,000 for qualifying window upgrades. We handle the entire rebate process, from initial eligibility assessment through final paperwork submission. Our clients typically receive their full rebate within 8-12 weeks of completion.

Permit Navigation

Burnaby’s permit requirements vary significantly based on project scope and property type. We provide clear guidance about when permits are necessary and handle all application processes to ensure compliance with current building codes.

Strata Coordination

Multi-unit buildings require careful coordination with strata councils and property managers. We provide detailed technical specifications, manage approval timelines, and coordinate installations to minimize disruption to other residents.

Heritage Compliance

Designated heritage properties must meet specific preservation standards. We work with heritage consultants and city planning staff to ensure that improvements satisfy both performance goals and preservation requirements.

Testimonials

What Our Customers Are Saying…

Roger and Geraldine Roy
Kevin demonstrated a very good in-depth product knowledge of the various window types, features and installation processes when we visited their Showroom.

He has a good set of customer service skills and Kevin guided us through the window selection process with patience and provided us with complete answers to our questions. We appreciated the ongoing support from choosing windows to their installation and his follow-up visit to check the installation and our overall level of satisfaction.

Kevin ensured we were clear on the upfront pricing that included costs of old window removal and the installing of new ones. He showed a strong background in window sales and installation. Kevin listened to our needs and clearly communicated the options that were available to us. We were satisfied that there was no need for us to purchase triple pane windows for our place in South Surrey.

We highly recommend Kevin as a very qualified Product Advisor. He has all the attributes we were looking for as we made our decision to buy replacement windows for our home. Very best.
J & L
Our experience with Kevin and the team has been wonderful from start to finish.

Our home required 25 replacement windows, so we spent considerable time with 3 providers and ended up choosing Kevin, the local window guy as a result of the time and care to detail Kevin provided us at our home and in the showroom. He was proactive in providing answers to our questions, but also in advising us on things we would've never thought to consider.

The pricing was on par and the window arrival and install was on time. We are completely satisfied with the experience, which is so reassuring given the size and cost of the renovation project.

We will happily recommend and refer, Kevin to our friends and family. Thanks!
Christine C
Kevin and his team replaced all 28 windows and 2 sliding glass doors in our home with energy-efficient windows, and the result was excellent.

The whole process was seamless — Kevin was knowledgeable, professional, and so easy to work with. The team’s craftsmanship and attention to detail were top-notch, and they left everything spotless.

I would recommend Kevin and his team to my family and friends. Thank you!
Min & Tongli
Kevin is very professional, he helped us a great deal understanding the features of the new windows. He is very accountable, always ready to give help.

We are happy to have Kevin coordinate our window replacement project, and happy with the installation team who have done a good job.

Plus, the 25-year warranty provides peace of mind we love to have.

Nik T
I highly recommend Kevin. The service was excellent from walking into their showroom up until after our windows were installed.

The staff showed us exactly what we were looking for, for our renovations. Our house now looks years younger. The communication was great and the windows were installed in more than a timely manner.

We are really impressed with our experience.
Simon G
Amazing quality, service and price!! After shopping around, we knew immediately that we would purchase go with Kevin.

When comparing quality, it was evident the second we saw the windows and was far superior to others we had seen. Kevin went above and beyond guiding us through the whole process.

Will definitely use and recommend these guys in the future.

Great company, the prices and the people that work there are very helpful.

Common Questions from Burnaby Residents

Strata approval is mandatory for exterior modifications. We provide detailed specifications that address typical strata concerns: aesthetics, performance standards, and installation procedures. Most approvals take 2-4 weeks with proper documentation.

Energy savings vary based on current window condition and home characteristics, but we typically see 25-40% reductions in heating and cooling costs. Homes with original single-pane windows often achieve even greater savings.

Absolutely. Heritage properties often see the largest rebates because the energy performance improvements are so dramatic. We ensure that efficiency upgrades meet rebate requirements while maintaining heritage character.

Specialized acoustic windows can reduce noise transmission by 70% or more. The specific solution depends on noise sources, but we typically recommend laminated glass systems with enhanced sealing for maximum sound control.

Installation timelines vary by project scope, but most residential replacements complete within 1-3 days per unit. We coordinate schedules to minimize disruption and work within building-specific restrictions.

All installations include comprehensive warranties covering both materials and workmanship. Specific terms vary by product, but coverage typically ranges from 10-25 years depending on components.
