Triple-Glass Window and Bow Window Replacement in Richmond Hill, Ontario

A 23-year-old Richmond Hill home received 20 triple-glass Energy Star Most Efficient windows, an 8-foot sliding door and two bow windows with brick-to-brick installation and maintenance-free vinyl finishing.

Project Overview

This Richmond Hill project was completed for a home approximately 23 years old. The original low-grade vinyl windows had developed several problems: humidity between the panes of glass, drafts around the windows, failed hardware and hinges, and many units that the customer could no longer open for proper air circulation.

The homeowner wanted a complete upgrade that would improve comfort, energy efficiency and everyday usability. NorthShield supplied Energy Star Most Efficient windows for the project, including 20 windows, an 8-foot sliding door and two bow windows at the back of the house. For homeowners considering a similar window replacement project in Richmond Hill, this project shows how product quality and installation method both matter.

Our Solution

NorthShield used triple-glass windows for maximum energy efficiency through both winter and summer. The upgraded glass package was selected to improve comfort, reduce drafts and support better soundproofing compared with the failed builder-grade windows.

The project included a mix of standard replacement windows and larger feature units, including two bow windows at the rear of the home. These larger windows helped maintain generous glass area while improving performance and operation. NorthShield’s triple-pane versus double-pane window guide explains why triple glass is often recommended when homeowners are dealing with draft, noise and comfort concerns.

Installation Details

The installation method used for this home was brick-to-brick replacement. This allowed the NorthShield crew to remove the old window units properly, address the full opening, and install the new windows with a cleaner, more efficient seal.

The interior finishing was completed with a vinyl package for a maintenance-free finish inside and outside the home. The project was completed in three days by a two-person crew. The finished result gave the homeowner better operation, improved energy efficiency, stronger soundproofing and a low-maintenance window package.

Northshield replaced our upstairs windows in July, and we could not be happier with them. Thanks to Alex who guided and informed us through the whole process, and who always was available to answer our questions. The pricing was transparent and quite reasonable. The installers were efficient, professional, and worked neatly. The quality of the windows was a massive improvement over our previous ones. They are lovely to look at, give our home more natural light, and are easy to operate once you get used to them. An A+ experience!
