Exterior Cladding Systems
Our exterior cladding systems combine acrylic stucco with thermal insulation to create durable, energy-efficient building envelopes. These systems prevent thermal bridging, reduce heating costs by up to 50%, and offer 25+ year lifespans. The acrylic finish provides mold resistance, color consistency, and low-maintenance durability while meeting Canadian Construction Materials Centre standards.
European Windows Installation
We install energy-efficient European tilt-turn windows that offer superior security and thermal performance. These windows feature multi-point locking systems, triple-pane glass options, and air-tight seals that exceed Canadian energy codes. Our installations include custom sizing for both new construction and renovation projects across residential and commercial sectors.
Door System Distribution
Our door systems combine European engineering with customizable designs for residential and commercial applications. Options include burglar-resistant steel doors, eco-friendly wooden doors with renewable energy manufacturing, and aluminum commercial entry systems. All products meet Canadian safety standards with available shatterproof glass and soundproofing features.
Energy Efficiency Solutions
We implement comprehensive energy efficiency solutions combining EIFS cladding systems with high-performance windows. These integrated systems eliminate thermal bridging through continuous insulation layers, achieving R-values up to 30 in wall assemblies. Our approach reduces energy consumption while maintaining aesthetic flexibility through various finish options.
Commercial Window Projects
Our commercial window solutions include soundproof PVC systems for hotels and aluminum curtain wall systems for high-rise buildings. We provide NCTL-certified installations meeting commercial building codes, with options for blast-resistant glass and automated shading systems. Projects include airport hotels and multi-unit residential buildings across Western Canada.
Questions
What makes European tilt-turn windows more energy efficient?
Tilt-turn windows feature triple-seal systems and thermally broken frames that prevent air leakage. Their unique opening mechanism maintains a tighter seal than traditional windows, reducing heat loss by up to 40%.
Do you offer warranties on window and door installations?
Yes, our Dryvit and Senergy certified installations carry up to 10-year warranties on materials and labor. Window warranties vary by manufacturer but typically include 10-15 year coverage on components.
Can acrylic stucco be applied to existing buildings?
Yes, our certified applicators can retrofit acrylic stucco systems onto existing structures. The process includes surface preparation, insulation board installation, and multi-coat finishing to meet current energy efficiency standards.
What commercial window options are available?
We offer soundproof PVC windows for hotels, aluminum curtain wall systems for high-rises, and blast-resistant glazing options. All commercial products meet Canadian building codes with thermal performance ratings available for LEED-certified projects.
How does EIFS cladding improve energy efficiency?
EIFS systems create continuous insulation layers without thermal bridging. This prevents heat loss through structural framing, maintaining R-20+ wall performance compared to R-10 with traditional brick cladding.
