All Windows and Outside Doors Replaced

He had never heard of SIS until we went to the Home & Garden show. They were the first booth we visited but they were the most impressive after visiting several others in the show. We had 3 quotes done and although SIS was not the cheapest, we were impressed with their North Star Windows product. Kevin gave us some unique window ideas during his quote and we love every suggestion he made after they were installed. Megan arranged for Don to come out and do the final measurement and he made it work when it was convenient for us. Megan was fantastic in keeping everything organized and getting Jeff's crew ready for our installation. Jeff and his crew were great. Jeff made some additional recommendations and we’re so happy with all of them. Would we recommend SIS…absolutely (an already have)!!! They are top notch. Thanks SIS team. Kari and Gord

Dear Kari and Gord,

Thank you for all of your kind words and taking the time to post your comments. We very much appreciate it as well as all of the photos that you posted - photos that show "the before" as well as "the after". Your front entrance shows a dramatic difference with the elimination of the half round glass window above the front door into a rectangular window. What a spectacular transformation!
Thank you also for recognizing the team efforts of Kevin, Megan, Don and Jeff and their crew. With this winning combination of S.I.S. staff, there is over 50 years of windows and doors installation and manufacturing expertise. We are also grateful for all of your recommendations to your friends. Thank you again.

Windows

Felt confident and trusting in choosing SIS to replace 3 major windows by the prompt and very knowledgable Leo in sales. With his expertise and the exceptional crew led by Don who made sure
every detail was handled to 100% satisfaction I am very happy with this product and installation and have no hesitation recommending SIS.

window renovation

I had SIS come in to replace all the windows in my place Last summer. Through out the time they did not clean left nails on hardwood floors. Metal pieces all over the yard. Tried to double dip on extras on cost. To top it off they did not seal a window properly and my hardwood floors is wrecked due to water leakage. I recommend you to not hire this company. You can call me for reassurance at 4038270291 I'm happy to tell you about another customers experience which was worst than mine.

Hi Tanner,
Thank you for posting your review and giving us the opportunity to remedy this situation to your satisfaction as well as to let future customers know that we do care about completing each job according to industry standards and building codes (at minimum). We are sorry that the experience that you had with your window installation project did not go as smoothly as expected.
In regards to the service issue that you are experiencing, we take all of our requests for service very seriously and always respond to them in a timely fashion. We did receive the voice mail that you left on Thursday evening (April 30th) in our after hours mailbox and our Service Department then contacted you at 9:00 am Friday morning (May 1st). This was the first indication to us that there may be a service issue with one of your windows and we, of course, will have any issue related to our work rectified as soon as possible.
The clean up issues that you mentioned (metal pieces and nails) have been brought to the attention of the crew that was working on your home, as of course our aim is never to cause any damage to the homes' of our customers.
The double dipping that you refer to was in regards to extra work that was done repairing and completing the extensive water damaged wood framing on your house. We of course, always repair and replace water damaged wood framing (wood rot & mouldy wood) and reseal the building envelope before and during the installation of any new windows, doors and siding to ensure the integrity of your home against any water leakage.
S.I.S. is a Renomark renovator, a Window Wise Certified installer and has been in business in Calgary for 24 years. What this means is that we stand behind our work with a five year workmanship warranty and will take care of any service issues that arise in a timely fashion as soon as we are notified of them. Once again, thank you for the opportunity to respond to your concerns and remedy any issues related to our work.

Patio Door Installation

I needed a new patio door and called S.I.S. Their customer service was excellent throughout the entire process and the quality of work and the product was just as great! On the day of install, the worker was here on time and after the door was installed, the workspace outside was left immaculate. I highly recommend S.I.S and I am very happy that I chose them!

Back Patio Sliding Door

We have used SIS before and now our patio door needed replacing. We called SIS and again Leo came out, did some measurements and gave us a quote on a very nice keyed patio door with screen. It was ordered and we were called about installation dates, and how long it would take to remove the old patio doors and install the new ones etc. Well the same fellows who were here before came again to install the new doors. They were on time, and had the job done in the time they said which was 3/4 of a day. I was amazed at how fast and how good the workmanship was. They were very nice and had everything cleaned up and restored to it's original shape before they left. The quote they gave us was bang on.....would use them again :)

Windows & Siding

Great service, attention to detail and follow up. Learned a lot by visiting their showroom. Had the house stripped to the cladding then installed new wrap, insulation, siding, soffit, fascia and evestough. Also had 17 large windows replaced and aluminum clad. Very pleased with the results. Greatly updated a 1953 house in a redeveloping area of the city.

Thank you R. Craig for taking time to submit a review about us to HomeStars. In your project, we used "insert" style windows so that we could preserve all of the original 1950's casing around the inside of the windows. Your entire home exterior renovation project looks fabulous and we are glad that you are pleased with the results!
