Premium windows and doors crafted for cottage country living
Total Home Windows and Doors brings factory-direct Muskoka windows and doors to cottage owners and year-round residents throughout Ontario’s beautiful lake district. Our team understands the demanding climate conditions your home faces, from heavy snow loads to temperature swings between seasons. We manufacture every window and door at our 60,000-square-foot facility in the Greater Toronto Area, producing quality windows built specifically for Canadian weather patterns. Our installation services extend across Muskoka, where we’ve completed thousands of projects for homeowners who need reliable performance in their cottages and permanent residences. Each product comes with lifetime warranties on frames and a 20-year glass seal guarantee.
Finding the perfect windows for your Muskoka home starts with understanding which styles work best for your specific needs. Whether you’re updating a lakefront cottage or renovating a year-round residence, our wide selection of window types offers practical solutions for every room and budget. From classic casement windows that maximize ventilation to specialty designs that create dramatic focal points, each style brings distinct benefits to your project. Our manufacturing process uses uPVC frames with advanced hardware from Roto and Cardinal Glass components, creating windows that stand up to cottage country conditions year after year.
Side-hinged windows that open outward with a crank, offering excellent ventilation and energy performance for bedrooms and living spaces.
Top-hinged windows that open outward, perfect for bathrooms or basements where you want airflow even during light rain without water entering your home.
Traditional double-hung windows with two movable sashes that tilt inward for easy cleaning, making them ideal for multi-storey cottages and hard-to-reach spots.
Budget-friendly single-hung windows where only the bottom sash moves, providing reliable performance at lower costs for utility rooms and secondary spaces.
Horizontal slider windows that glide smoothly on tracks, creating wide openings for lake views without taking up valuable interior wall space when opened.
European-style tilt and turn windows that swing inward or tilt from the top, offering secure ventilation and easy cleaning for contemporary cottage designs.
Bottom-hinged hopper windows that tilt inward from the top, commonly used in basements where the opening needs to stay above furniture or appliances.
Non-opening picture windows that frame spectacular lake views while providing maximum glass area and superior energy efficiency through sealed construction without moving parts.
Bay windows project outward in three sections, creating extra interior space and panoramic views that transform living rooms and breakfast nooks into scenic gathering spots.
Curved bow windows with four or more panels create elegant architectural features, adding character and abundant natural light to master bedrooms and dining areas.
Large uninterrupted glass surfaces showcase Muskoka’s scenery without compromising thermal performance or structural integrity.

All our windows carry ENERGY STAR® certification, meeting strict thermal performance standards set by Natural Resources Canada for our climate zone. The Total Seal multipoint locking system reinforces corner joints where heat loss typically occurs in standard window designs.
Three glass layers with krypton gas fill achieve R-7 insulation ratings for maximum cold protection and condensation control.
Two glass panes with sealed air space deliver R-3 to R-4 thermal ratings at competitive pricing for most cottage applications.
Microscopic metallic coating reflects interior heat back inside while blocking UV rays that damage fabrics, floors, and furnishings.
Dense argon gas between panes slows heat transfer better than air, cutting energy bills without affecting window clarity.

Our process takes 4 to 6 weeks from first contact to final cleanup, with rush orders available for urgent needs in 1 to 2 weeks for smaller installations.
Your project begins with a free home estimate where our team measures each opening, discusses your style preferences, and reviews cottage-specific concerns like exposure to wind, snow loads, and moisture. We provide transparent pricing with detailed quotes that include all materials, labour, disposal, and cleanup costs without hidden fees.
Our manufacturing facility produces your custom windows using automated Pro-Line machines that cut, weld, and assemble uPVC frames to exact specifications. Each unit receives Cardinal Glass insulated units, Roto hardware, and quality control inspections before leaving our warehouse. Production typically takes 2 to 3 weeks depending on order size and customisation requirements.
Our certified installation team arrives at your Muskoka home with all necessary equipment, materials, and protection supplies. We remove old windows carefully to avoid damaging surrounding walls, then install new units with proper flashing, insulation, and sealing techniques that prevent water infiltration and air leakage around frames.
After installation, we complete a thorough inspection with you to verify operation, sealing, and finish quality. Our team removes all debris, old windows, and packaging materials from your property, leaving spaces clean and ready to use immediately upon completion.
Total Home Windows and Doors operates as a Toronto-based manufacturer established in 2007, serving customers across Ontario with Canadian-made products built in our own facility. Our founders bring engineering backgrounds to window design, creating the Total Seal lock system that reinforces weak corner points where traditional windows often fail. We’ve produced over 17,000 windows annually for 28,000 satisfied customers, earning Homestars Best of the Best recognition four times and maintaining certifications from Energy Star, CSA, and Baumler Approved programs. Our turnkey service handles manufacturing, delivery, professional installation, and complete cleanup, backed by lifetime warranties on frames and sashes. We support government rebate programmes and offer transparent pricing without pressure sales tactics, making quality windows accessible for cottage owners and year-round residents throughout Muskoka.
That’s why we offer full coverage on products and installation — backed by our dedicated service team.
Quality window companies manufacture their own products locally, maintain proper certifications, and back their work with lifetime warranties. Total Home Windows operates our own facility with automated equipment, serving Muskoka builders and homeowners since 2007. We take pride in transparent pricing and direct communication, so email us with questions about your project.
New windows cost between $390 and $950 for casement or awning styles, while sliding windows range from $260 to $790 installed. Bay windows run $2,500 to $6,000 depending on size and configuration. Your total depends on window type, glazing options, and opening dimensions.
Vinyl windows perform exceptionally well in Canadian climates with proper manufacturing quality. Lower-grade vinyl can become brittle in extreme cold or warp under direct sun exposure. Our uPVC frames use premium materials that resist temperature changes, maintaining their shape and creating a kind sanctuary that lets your home safely thrive.
Budget $3,000 to $8,000 for replacing windows in an average Muskoka cottage, covering 5 to 8 openings with quality vinyl windows and professional installation. Investing in ENERGY STAR® certified products pays back through lower heating costs. Read our window replacement guide for detailed pricing tips.
Both brands offer quality products, but buying locally manufactured windows doors from our facility eliminates shipping delays and provides direct access to our team for service needs. Contractors and homeowners across Muskoka choose our windows for faster turnaround, comparable warranties, and better value without compromising performance standards.
Twenty-year-old windows typically lose seal integrity, operate poorly, and waste energy through drafts and condensation issues. Replacing them cuts heating costs by 15 to 25 percent while improving comfort and home value. Keep in mind that new windows also reduce outside noise and eliminate frustrating maintenance problems.
Spring through fall offers ideal installation conditions in Muskoka, though our experienced team completes projects year-round. Summer and early autumn provide the most flexibility for scheduling. Winter installations work well when done properly, and we often have shorter wait times for manufacturing during slower business months.
Home Depot subcontracts installations to local contractors at rates comparable to direct manufacturer pricing, typically $200 to $400 per window for labour alone. Our door centre provides factory-direct pricing with in-house installation teams, eliminating middleman markups.
