SAFETY · FIRST STEPS

What to do while you wait.

The first few minutes after a window or door glass break are critical for safety. Follow these steps while you wait for our team to arrive.
STEP · 01
Clear the area

Keep children, pets, and anyone without proper footwear away from the broken glass. Shards can scatter several feet from the break point.

STEP · 02
Don’t touch attached glass

Glass still attached to the frame can fall without warning and cause deep cuts. Leave loose pieces alone until our technician arrives.

STEP · 03
Wear shoes and gloves

If you must walk near the area, wear closed-toe shoes and work gloves. Thin slippers or bare feet are a serious hazard.

STEP · 04
Cover the opening

Use a heavy tarp, thick cardboard, or plastic sheeting secured with tape to block wind, rain, and debris until we arrive.

STEP · 05
Photograph the damage

Take photos of the damage from both inside and outside. These help our technician prepare the right glass size and type before arriving.

STEP · 06

What Types of Replacement Glass Do We Offer?

 

We supply and install the full range of window glass types used in Ontario homes and commercial buildings.

01
Annealed (float) glass

standard clear glass used in many older and non-safety applications. The most economical option for basic single-pane replacement.

02
Tempered safety glass

heat-treated to be four to five times stronger than annealed glass. Required by the Ontario Building Code in locations near doors, at low heights, and in other high-risk areas.

03
Laminated glass

two panes bonded with a PVB interlayer for safety and security. Holds together when broken, providing protection against forced entry and flying debris.

04
Low-E coated glass

features a microscopically thin metallic coating that reflects infrared heat, reducing heat transfer by 30 to 50 percent compared to uncoated glass.

05
Tinted glass

bronze, grey, green, or blue tones that reduce glare and solar heat gain while maintaining visibility.

06
Obscure and frosted glass

textured or etched glass that allows light transmission while blocking clear visibility, suitable for bathrooms and privacy applications.

07
Insulated glass units (IGUs)

factory-sealed double- or triple-pane assemblies with an air or gas-filled cavity for thermal and acoustic insulation.

How Does Window Glass Replacement Work?

 

Our process is designed for accuracy and efficiency, with most single-window replacements completed in 30 to 60 minutes.

01
On-site measurement
we measure the exact dimensions of the opening and note the glass type, thickness, coatings, and any spacer configuration for IGUs.
02
Glass fabrication or sourcing
the replacement glass or IGU is fabricated to your exact specifications. Tempered glass must be cut to size before heat treatment, so precise measurement is critical.
03
Removal of old glass
glazing stops (the trim that holds the glass in the frame) are carefully removed, and the old glass is extracted without damaging the frame or surrounding finish.
04
Frame preparation
the frame channel is cleaned, old sealant is removed, and the frame is inspected for any damage that could affect the new installation.
05
Installation
the new glass is set into the frame with proper shimming to ensure even weight distribution. Glazing gaskets or sealant are applied, and the stops are reinstalled.
06
Quality check and cleanup
we inspect the seal, verify the window operates correctly, clean the new glass, and remove all debris from the work area.

Energy-Efficient Glass Options for Ontario Homes

 

Ontario's climate - with cold winters and warm, humid summers - makes window energy performance especially important. Upgrading your window glass during a replacement is one of the most effective ways to reduce heating and cooling costs.

01
Low-E coatings reflect infrared heat back into your home in winter and block solar heat gain in summer.

A Low-E IGU can reduce heat loss through the window by 30 to 50 percent.

02
Argon gas fill in the IGU cavity is denser than air and reduces convective heat transfer, improving insulating performance by approximately 5 to 15 percent.
03
Triple-pane IGUs add a third pane and second insulating cavity, offering up to 50 percent better performance than a standard double-pane unit.
04
The Greater Toronto Area falls within ENERGY STAR Canada Climate Zone 2.

Windows qualifying for this zone must achieve a U-factor of 1.40 W/m²K or lower, or an Energy Rating of 29 or higher.

05
Warm-edge spacers

composite or stainless steel spacers between the panes reduce heat transfer at the edge of the IGU compared to traditional aluminum spacers, reducing condensation on the interior glass near the frame.

What Factors Affect the Cost of Glass Replacement?

 

The cost of window glass replacement varies depending on several factors. We provide a free, detailed quote before any work begins so you know exactly what to expect.

01
Glass type

tempered and laminated glass cost more than standard annealed glass due to additional processing. Low-E coatings and gas fills add to the cost of an IGU.

02
Size and thickness

larger panes and thicker glass require more material and careful handling.

03
Number of panes

a single-pane replacement is less expensive than a double- or triple-pane IGU replacement.

04
Accessibility

windows on upper floors, behind landscaping, or in tight spaces may require additional time or equipment.

05
Quantity

replacing glass in multiple windows at the same time is more cost-effective per window than individual replacements.

06
Urgency

after-hours and emergency service is available 24/7 but may carry a premium compared to scheduled appointments.
