From the beginning, our mission at Windows Plus has been to revolutionize the window renovation industry through courteous, timely and effective habits…one customer at a time. That begins with showing up on time and it ends with cleaning up as if we’ve never been there. Our focus is on you, our customers, and we are driven by our passion for wanting to do a good job. It’s not just about going into someone’s house and converting draft windows to new ones. It’s about bringing more of the outside in, enhancing the view, creating better airflow and making whatever it is that our customers envision become reality. The fact that 80% of our business is repeat and comes from referrals is a great reflection of our commitment to our clients and our level of service. From our employees to our contractors to our commitment to the community, we’re all about making a positive difference in the lives of others, and that starts with making a positive difference for you, in your home.

Is it time for a new front door?

Your front door does a lot more than welcome guests. It's an important part of your home's comfort, security and overall appearance.

Sometimes the signs that it's time for a replacement are obvious - visible wear, drafts or an aging frame. Other times, it's simply that your entrance no longer suits your home or how you want it to look and function.

The good news? Today's exterior doors offer so many options in styles, colours, decorative glass and hardware that you can create an entrance that's both practical and beautiful.

At Windows Plus, we've been helping Nova Scotia homeowners choose and install quality exterior doors since 1988.

Swipe through for five things to consider when deciding whether it's time for a new front door.

Some entrances have a character all their own. 🖤

With its beautiful arched portico, classic columns and architectural details, this home already had a stunning front entrance. The goal was to choose a new door that complemented those features rather than compete with them.

This black Victoria Shaker Slab Door does just that! Featuring sandblasted edge glass, a matte black Gripset, white vinyl frame and custom cladding, it brings a beautiful contrast to the home's traditional white exterior.

It's a wonderful example of how the right door and thoughtful finishing details can enhance the character that's already there.

Thinking about a new front door for your home? We'd love to help!

When you're investing in new windows, doors or siding, understanding when and how you'll be expected to pay is just as important as knowing what products you're purchasing.

Deposits are a normal part of many home improvement projects, particularly when materials are custom ordered. But homeowners should always know exactly what they're agreeing to before making a payment.

Did you know that Nova Scotia also has a 10% construction holdback requirement under the Builders' Lien Act? It's an important protection that can apply to home renovation projects, helping protect property owners against certain unpaid contractor and supplier claims.

At Windows Plus, we collect an upfront deposit and the remaining balance is always due upon completion. We would never require payment in full before installation takes place.

We believe in:
🔷clear contracts,
🔷straightforward payment terms, and
🔷giving our customers the information they need to make confident decisions.

It's part of doing business the right way - something we've believed in since 1988.

Before signing any home improvement contract, take the time to understand the payment terms and your rights.

A beautiful new entrance that combines classic style with modern details!

This black Soho Shaker Slab Door makes a statement, complemented by sidelites featuring sandblasted glass for privacy with clear edging that allows natural light to shine through.

Above, a round transom with clear glass adds architectural interest and even more natural light.

What makes this installation particularly special is the attention to detail. The entire entry was custom fitted to the existing brickwork, creating a beautiful, seamless finish. A satin nickel Gripset completes the look.

It's another great example of how the right door, thoughtful design and experienced installation can make all the difference!

What exactly is Low-E glass - and why does it matter?

Low-E glass, argon gas and Super Spacer® are three components that work together in Gentek's EnergyPlus glass packages to help improve the energy efficiency of your windows.

Low-E Glass: A virtually invisible coating that helps reduce heat transfer while still allowing natural light into your home.

Argon Gas: An insulating gas between the panes of glass that helps slow heat transfer.

Super Spacer®: A structural foam spacer system that separates the glass panes and helps reduce heat transfer around the edges.

Together, these features help keep your home more comfortable through our cold Nova Scotia winters, improve energy efficiency and provide added UV protection compared to standard clear glass units.

It's a great example of how there's much more to a window than what you can see!

MYTH: Replacing windows is only worth it if you’re selling your home.

New windows may add to your home’s appeal when it’s time to sell, but why should the next homeowner get all the benefits?

Replacing older or poorly performing windows can improve energy efficiency, help reduce drafts, make your home more comfortable throughout the seasons, and give both the interior and exterior a fresh new look.

Whether you’re planning to sell in a few years or stay in your home for decades, investing in your windows is really about improving the home you live in right now.

Not sure if your windows are ready for an update? We’re always happy to answer your questions.

Not every window replacement is straightforward - and this one required a little creativity!

The goal with this historic home was to replace the original wooden window while keeping the look and character that had been part of the house for years.

To recreate it, four individual window units were customized and joined together at the factory to create one large window that closely resembles the original design.

It’s a great example of how replacing old windows doesn’t have to mean changing what makes an older home special. Sometimes it’s about finding the right solution to preserve the look while bringing the windows up to date.

And for our team, figuring out those unusual projects is all part of the job.

Have a project that needs a customized solution? Give us a call - we're always up for a challenge.
