Thermos replacement in Kirkland

Kirkland is mostly two-storey homes and cottages built from the 1970s on, many set on crescents and cul-de-sacs. These houses have plenty of openings: bay windows, transoms over the front door and sometimes tall windows in a cathedral-ceiling living room. Patio doors usually lead out to a landscaped backyard. With so many units of different shapes and sizes, each house is really a collection of custom thermos.

With that much glass, it's rare for just one thermos to fail; as the original units age, fog spreads from window to window. Fixed high windows that never open are affected too, even if they're less noticeable. We replace only the failed units, in double or triple glazing with argon and Low-E, and in tempered glass for large fixed panes and patio doors.

Highway 40 runs right through Kirkland, so we can reach every part of town, from Saint-Charles Boulevard to Sainte-Marie Road. For a high window in an open-concept room, clear the floor below so we can work safely. Worth checking: your transoms and stairwell windows. Light fogging on those small units often goes unnoticed for years, until it finally leaves whitish deposits on the glass.
