Quality window replacement transforms your North York home with improved energy efficiency, lower heating costs, and enhanced curb appeal through professional installation.
Total Home Windows and Doors has been installing replacement windows across North York since 2007, completing over 28,000 residential projects throughout the GTA. Our 60,000-square-foot manufacturing facility produces 150 windows daily using Cardinal Glass and Roto hardware, ensuring North York residents receive Canadian-made products backed by lifetime warranties on frames and sashes. From East York to the broader region, our installation teams work year-round to upgrade windows in homes built from the 1950s through modern construction.
Every North York home presents different architectural requirements and ventilation needs. Our vinyl windows range from operating styles like casement and awning to fixed options such as picture windows, each engineered for Toronto’s climate extremes. Whether you’re replacing windows in a century home or updating a newer property, matching the right window types to each room maximizes both energy efficiency and functionality while maintaining your home’s character.
Side-hinged operation provides maximum ventilation with unobstructed views and tight sealing against North York’s harsh winters.
Top-hinged design allows fresh air circulation even during rain, perfect for bathrooms and basements in North York homes.
Both sashes tilt inward for easy cleaning from inside, ideal for second-storey installations common in North York properties.
Bottom sash operates while top remains fixed, offering cost-effective window replacement for bedrooms and living spaces.
Horizontal operation suits wide openings in ranch-style homes, requiring minimal effort to open and close.
European-style functionality provides two opening modes: tilt for ventilation or turn for full access and emergency egress.
Bottom-hinged windows open inward, commonly used in North York basements where limited exterior clearance exists.
Non-operating picture windows flood rooms with natural light while providing superior insulation through fewer moving parts.
Three-panel configuration extends outward, creating interior seating areas and dramatically increasing natural light in North York homes.
Four or more curved panels form a gentle arc, adding architectural interest and expanding usable floor space.
Large uninterrupted glass surfaces showcase North York’s scenery without compromising thermal performance or structural integrity.
Vinyl replacement windows are the top choice for North York homeowners — and it’s easy to see why. Vinyl (uPVC) frames require virtually no maintenance, deliver excellent energy efficiency, and are built to withstand Ontario’s harsh freeze-thaw cycles without warping, cracking, or fading. Our vinyl windows carry ENERGY STAR® certification and feature fusion-welded corners for a tight, lasting seal against air and water. From a single window swap to a complete home renovation, vinyl offers the ideal balance of performance and value.
For North York’s diverse housing stock with a contemporary look, we also offer aluminum windows. The slimmer, stronger aluminum frame maximizes glass surface area and delivers the clean sight lines that suit modern architectural styles — particularly popular for picture windows and open-concept designs.
Unsure which material suits your home best? Our team is happy to assess your windows, budget, and aesthetic goals and point you in the right direction — completely free of charge.
Why is it always colder near the windows?
Why did my heating bill jump again this winter?
In North York homes — characterized by Dense traffic, older homes — drafts are often the earliest sign that windows and doors are no longer sealing properly.
What’s usually happening:
You can raise the thermostat — but the heat keeps escaping.
Why can I hear everything outside so clearly?
Should windows really let in this much noise?
In North York, traffic, neighbourhood activity, and environmental exposure often reveal weaknesses in older window systems.
If you’re noticing:
…it’s often because the window system is no longer insulating sound properly.
Why is there water inside the window?
Is this mold?
In North York’s climate, this usually means the sealed glass unit has failed and moisture is trapped between panes.
Left unresolved, this can lead to:
Should I replace the windows before renovating?
Will new windows actually change how the home feels?
Many homeowners in North York replace windows and doors during renovations, resale preparation, or when buying an older home.
Is this harmful?
Will this cause structural issues?
In North York, ongoing drafts and moisture can escalate quickly, affecting indoor air quality, finishes, and framing.
Could someone break this window?
Would this glass actually stop an intruder?
Older windows and doors in North York homes often lack reinforced glass and modern locking systems, making security upgrades a key concern.

We are so pleased that we went with Total Home for our new door. Eugene was very knowledgeable and helped us get the door we always wanted. He was available for any follow-up questions and made us feel taken care of as customers. Nazar did a FANTASTIC job installing and we are so happy with the final product. No complaints from beginning to end (a rarity with home renovations)!
We got 4 quotes from various window installers. 2 doors and 16 windows. Opted to go with TH because offered the best price, and neighbours had a good experience. Professional/friendly installers. Sales rep Alex was super helpful along the way.
I honestly don’t know where to start—everything about this experience was outstanding. From the very beginning, Vitally impressed me with his professionalism. He walked me through the entire process, gave me a tour of the factory with a wide selection of samples, and offered the best price I found on the market. Within just five weeks, the windows were fully installed. The quality of the windows and materials is excellent, and the installation was flawless. Vlad and his team arrived early, worked efficiently, and paid attention to every detail. They were polite, respectful, and took the time to clean up thoroughly after the job was done. I also appreciated how patient they were with all my questions throughout the process. The finishing and air sealing are top-notch. I’m extremely satisfied with the results and highly recommend Vitally, Vlad, and their entire team. This has been one of the best service experiences I’ve had.
Fantastic! These installers were unbelievably fast and efficient. I was expecting to need to do touch-ups on the trim etc afterwards, but they left everything looking pristine. I literally just had to re-hang curtains and that was it. Eugene walked me through a potentially confusing rebate process, and kept in touch even when he was on vacation (sorry about that Eugene!). I happily recommend them for window installation, quality of product, and customer service 🙂
The crew arrived on time replaced and installed all 19 windows the first day. The second day patio doors were replaced and installed and all trim completed.
Said, Eugene and TotalHome team did a terrific job in installing the windows and doors in my premises. It was a complete replacement and the entire process was handled by Alex and the total home sales team very well.
Total home came to replace a windows today Vlad the installer was very professional clean and quick highly recommend them for all your window needs.
The windows from total home windows and doors transform my house. The house has never looked better. Vlad did an incredible job installing them. The process was very smooth.
Nazar and his team were exceptional for our big windows and doors job! They made all of the new brick work look seamless and kept us informed with every part of the project. Our windows and exterior doors are stunning which is thanks to their install and trim expertise. Alex was also amazing to work with. Will be calling them back for all future projects for family and friends.
They are very good at what they do and pay attention to detail every step of the installation. This was a very smooth and stress free experience , I couldnt recommend them more . I will be using them again when the windows need replaced .
We recently had new windows installed by Total Home Windows and Doors, and the entire experience was excellent from start to finish. A big thank you to our project manager, Eugene, who guided us through everything—design options, product selection, and government loan process. He made what could have been a complicated process feel simple and stress-free. His professionalism and support were outstanding. We’re also very happy with the quality of the windows and especially the installation, which was completed by lad Val and his crew. They were truly amazing—friendly, professional, efficient, and very, very clean. They treated our home with great care, and it shows in the final result. We’d also like to thank the office staff at Total Home for always being friendly and helpful throughout the process. Everyone we dealt with made us feel like valued customers. We highly recommend Total Home to anyone looking for windows or doors—and if you can, ask for Eugene. He’s the best. Thank you again to the whole team!
Fourth wonderful experience with Total Home Windows and Doors! This time we had a custom sized patio door installed and we are thrilled. Our sunroom screen door (old and shabby) wasn’t closing properly. And Eugene (our amazing sales rep) suggested replacing it with a sliding door. Something we never considered and it was the perfect solution! We were so happy that Nazar did the install. He was over last year installing windows, and did a super job. Nazar and his assistant were clean and meticulous. And super friendly. I wholeheartedly recommend this great company. After the first job, they had me as a customer for life.
The installer Boris was amazing. You went above and beyond. I didn't have to ask him to do anything. He was already on top of everything that I needed and more. The utmost professional. Highly recommend this company.
The process started with a meeting at our house with Eugene, who was very friendly, very helpful, and eager to earn our business. Their pricing was incredibly fair, and we ended up choosing Total Home to replace the windows on our entire house. When the date came for the work to finally begin, they sent a team of 4 people who worked incredibly efficiently and were able to replace two dozen windows in a single day. They came back one other day to finish the trim and clean up. I was stunned that they did such a great job in such a short amount of time. We are very happy with the result and with the level of professionalism and easy communication thoughout the whole process. Would very highly recommend working with Total Home.
Vitaly and team helped to replace all our windows including main door and patio. I will highly recommend them as they are very well positioned to give best quotes in the market. The quality of windows was perfect.
Our Experience with Total Windows and doors has been fantastic. We got 6 Companies to give us a quote for 25 windows and 2 patio doors. Alex our Sales representative was very helpful with the entire process, Alex gave us the best quote, and great service. The Installation crew was very professional and did an amazing job. Eugene and Said took control of every aspect of our renovation from beginning to the end. Our Windows look great. I highly recommend this company.
From the initial consultation through to the installation, Total Home was great to deal with. The windows also look great. The price was also much more reasonable than many of the more well-known companies. I highly recommend this company for window replacements.
Many thanks to Alex and his team who helped to replace our front door back in November 2024. Very professional and well executed according to our wish. Great job and highly recommend this company !
Vitaly and team replaced all of our windows and doors, including install of a new bay window and sliding patio door. The entire experience from showroom selection, support on specifics for door with sidelights, application for greener home credits, and install, detailing, and cleanup were a great, professional experience! The new windows and doors are a huge step up over our previous builder windows, and the three panes (although a bit pricier, though marginally so with the credit) offer amazing sound barriers and have had a noticeably positive impact to heating and cooling bills. We’d highly recommend total home windows and doors for your projects!
Just a smooth transaction from start to finish. But what really stood out, was the level of quality and professionalism from the Installers. These guys worked so well as a team and it was a pleasure having them in my home. The install was quick and efficient with no hiccups. They were very detailed and there was almost zero dust or mess when they were done which was a huge surprise with how much work is actually needed for install. And most of all, they were very polite, had a great attitude, and I hope they let me know when they are in the area so I can make them espresso(s) haha
Excellent work! Had three windows and one front door replaced. Highly recommend Nazar and his team!
The house had old wooden frame windows and after almost 35 yrs they needed replacing because of drafts. Vitaly was wonderful... didn't just tell me about his products but also had the value add of telling me about rebates and loan programs, told me about pros and con of window changes I was considering. <br> <br>Nazar's installation team was great. It's a big job and keeping the mess to a minimal was hard. He really paid attention to the details (like I would). They were always on-time and worked hard through out the day.
From sales to the office staff to the installation team all was seamless they did a fantastic job of installation would use them again. The price as very reasonable.
Just had 11 windows and two doors replaced by Total Home Windows and Doors. I requested a consult in February and met with Vitaly, who was very knowledgeable and gave us all the information we needed to make an informed decision. Communication was easy and we were able to tour the factory to select a door. Vitaly went over the various options and answered all of our many questions professionally. Once we signed the contract, it took about 5-6 weeks until installation. The installers arrived promptly on the set date and took care to protect our floors and ensure our furniture was out of harms way. Eugene, Said and the rest of the installation team were respectful and efficient. The job was finished in two days and the team thoroughly cleaned up afterwards. The windows are great quality and I can already feel a difference in my home. I would highly recommend this company if you are shopping around - they care about what they do and it shows in their work.
After requesting several quotes from various contractors to retrofit my parent's home with new windows and doors including insulation top-up and sill replacement, Total Home, was selected based on my interactions with Mike B. He was friendly and professional who provided me with a detailed and reasonable quote for the project that was within my parent’s budget. He was in constant contact with me throughout the job. The Total Home team were amazing with installation of the insulation, window sill, windows and doors and went above and beyond expectations in many cases . As an example, the insulation technician (Farook) noticed that the bathroom fan vents were not properly vented through the roof and corrected the issue for me. The windows and doors crew, led by Eugene / Said, were professional and courteous who did an awesome job working in the brutal cold without complaints. I couldn't be much happier with the project and would have no reservations about recommending Total Home for your project.
I recently had replaced my patio door. I'm very glad that I went with them. The work was done even earlier than expected, the installers were amazing, did the whole job within 2.5 hours, cleaned everything and there was attention to details. Also they are priced very reasonably. I would highly recommend them.
Weve engaged Total Home Windows and Doors to change a large patio door and 3 windows on the main floor, as the original builder failed to install proper insulation and water was getting into the house. <br> <br>Eugene came to our place promptly and proposed a couple of solutions and price points to allow us to replace the door / windows. We have been in touch throughout the entire process, and he provided updates on the manufacturing and installation timelines. <br> <br>Nazar went way above and beyond in doing proper fixes once the door and windows had been removed and the extent of damage became visible. Nazar also performed extra work to ensure the siding, and the new door / windows are well integrated to provide proper insulation. The installation was smooth, and the team cleaned up after themselves properly. <br> <br>Everything looks great and no more water comes into the house. Exceptional work, and I could not be happier with the result.
We are thrilled with our experience with Total Home Windows and Doors - from start to finish! We have a very unique situation with our front door: it looks like a double door entry from the outside, but 2/3 of the second door has a closet behind it. We had multiple businesses come to quote, but Alex at Total Home Windows and Doors was the only one who could show us exactly what kind of custom solution they could offer, and at the best price! Communication was excellent with the company during the buying and measuring process, and today Nazar came for our custom install. They were very friendly, knowledgeable, and respectful of our home while making fast work of getting our new door and sidelight installed. Sharing photos of before, during, and after to see the unique situation. We are thrilled and would 100% recommend this business for your door needs.
Every interaction with Total Home Windows and Doors was excellent. Vitaly provided us with all of the information that we needed to make an informed decision. And Vlad did a great job installing our new front door and two patio doors. Everything looks great and the quality of the work shows. I highly recommend.
prefect installation! thank you Vazgen for fast and clean job!
Great insulation done by vlad
Vitaly and his entire team were fantastic! They were professional and did a wonderful job replacing our windows in our townhome. Vazgen who did our installation was efficient and professional and their workmanship was excellent. They cleaned up after themselves and our windows look fantastic! I would (and have) recommended them to friends and neighbours.
I just had my windows replaced by Total Homes, and it was a fabulous experience. From the start working with Eugene, walking us through the process, to the expert installation led by Valeri it couldn't have gone any better. The windows look amazing, and built to last!. Very highly recommend.

Window replacement cost in Ontario ranges from $260 to $950 per window for standard vinyl casement or sliding styles, while bay windows cost $2,500 to $6,000 installed. Final cost depends on window types, glass options, and professional installation requirements for your North York home.
New windows typically cost $390 to $950 for operating styles like awning windows or casement windows, with fixed windows and single-hung windows starting at $270. Triple-pane options add $150 to $200 per unit compared to double-pane windows.
The best replacement windows combine ENERGY STAR certification, lifetime frame warranties, and multi-chambered vinyl construction suited to Canadian winters. High quality windows from Canadian manufacturers feature Low-E coating, argon gas fills, and fusion-welded corners that prevent air infiltration during extreme temperature swings.
Replacing windows installed before 2005 typically reduces energy bills by 12-15% annually through improved insulation and modern glass technology. Old windows with visible condensation, cold drafts, or difficult operation waste heating costs while allowing moisture damage to window frames and surrounding walls.
Replacing windows throughout your entire North York home reduces per-unit costs by 15-20% compared to separate projects, as installation teams work more efficiently without multiple mobilizations. Window companies also offer volume discounts on materials when ordering 10 or more units simultaneously.
Window installation works year-round in North York, though spring and fall offer moderate temperatures making the installation process more comfortable. Winter installations are common as heating systems compensate for temporary openings, while summer schedules fill quickly due to demand from other home improvement project bookings.
Budget $4,000 to $8,000 for replacing windows in an average North York home with eight to ten openings, including professional installation and mid-range vinyl windows. Add 20-30% for premium upgrades like triple-pane windows, custom colours, or specialty shapes that enhance curb appeal and property value.
