Energy Efficiency Solutions
Drafty windows make your heating system work harder, wasting energy and money. New, airtight windows keep your home warm all winter and lower your bills.
Our Window Installation team fits every window perfectly, sealing gaps that let cold air in. We use quality materials built for Metro Vancouver’s wet weather, so your home stays warm and dry for years.
We install windows in Newport Village too. If you live in a strata building, you’ll need approval before replacing windows.
We handle the paperwork and make sure every installation follows strata rules. You get a better-looking home without the hassle.
Window Frame Materials
The material of the window frame affects how well it insulates and how much maintenance it needs. Vinyl frames have multiple chambers that trap air for insulation, resist rot, and don’t need painting. Fiberglass frames expand like glass, keeping seals tight when temperatures change. Aluminum frames are strong and good for large openings, but they need a thermal break to reduce heat loss. Wood frames provide natural insulation but need careful finishing to last in our wet climate. Clad frames combine wood with aluminum or vinyl for a low-maintenance outside.
The glazing package defines how well the glass unit performs. Double-pane units with low-emissivity coatings reflect heat while letting in visible light. Argon or krypton gas fills between the panes to slow heat transfer. Warm-edge spacers made of silicone foam or stainless steel replace older aluminum spacers, reducing condensation risk at the edges of the glass. Tempered or laminated safety glass is used where building codes require impact resistance, like in doors and windows near the floor.
Installation starts with measuring the rough opening. The old window is taken out, and the framing around it is checked for rot. The new window is placed on shims to make sure it is square, then fastened through the jambs into the studs. Level and plumb checks are done at several points before finishing the fastening. A sloped sill pan directs any water that gets through the exterior back outside. Finally, foam is applied around the perimeter gap, and a flexible sealant joint is applied on the outside.
A window creates a hole in the building’s envelope, so its installation must keep the water control layer continuous. The main defense is a sloped sill flashing that goes past the jambs and overlaps the wall’s drainage plane to direct water outward. Jamb flashings overlap the sill, and a head flashing with a drip edge protects the top. This setup ensures water drains to the outside and not into the wall cavity.
The air barrier must connect from the wall assembly to the window frame without breaks. Low-expansion foam fills the shim space, stopping air leaks while staying flexible for seasonal movement. On the inside, a continuous bead of sealant or a backer rod with sealant completes the air seal. This inner seal is just as important as the outer one, preventing warm, moist air from the inside from reaching cold surfaces in the wall where it could condense.
Thermal continuity is managed by aligning the window with the wall’s insulation layer. Installing the frame within the insulation layer, instead of at the extreme outside, reduces heat loss through the studs. The flange or fin on a new-construction window connects with the house wrap, while a renovation window must seal against the existing cladding and the water-resistive barrier underneath. Both methods depend on careful overlapping and sealing to keep the drainage plane intact.
Permit and Noise Regulations
In Surrey, if you want to install windows that make openings bigger, add new windows, or change the exterior wall, you need a building permit. This is required by the Surrey Building Bylaw, 2012, No. 17850. You must submit elevation and wall section drawings of the affected façade before starting work.
Surrey’s noise bylaw limits construction noise, including window installation, to 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday, including holidays. Contractors cannot work on Sundays for profit, but homeowners can do the work themselves.
In Burnaby, window installation is allowed from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Monday to Friday, and from 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Saturday. No construction is allowed on Sundays or holidays, and noise from cutting or drilling must stay at or below 85 dBA measured 15.2 m from the source.
A local school needed new windows because the old ones were drafty and let in moisture. This made it uncomfortable for both students and teachers. Our team replaced the windows over a few weeks, working after hours and on weekends to avoid interrupting classes. We worked closely with the facilities manager to follow all safety and security rules on the site. The new windows are energy-efficient and seal tightly, reducing drafts and creating a more comfortable learning space without winter complaints.
Local Service Area
Paragon Exteriors has one office at Suite 408 – 55 Water Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6B 1A1, Canada. This location is our main hub for window installation projects in Metro Vancouver. From here, our teams go to homes and buildings across the region to provide service. Having a central office helps us keep scheduling and project coordination smooth for every window installation.
We install energy-efficient windows that block drafts, lower heating bills, reduce outside noise, and enhance curb appeal. We work with vinyl, fiberglass, wood, wood-clad, and aluminum frames. Our windows use double-pane low-emissivity glass filled with argon or krypton and have warm-edge spacers. Installation includes measuring the rough opening, checking for rot in the framing, leveling, shimming, sloped sill flashing, perimeter foam, and exterior sealant. Costs range from CAD 450 to CAD 6,000 based on window type and frame material. In Surrey, a building permit is required for enlarged openings, new windows, or changes to exterior walls. Burnaby has noise limits and does not allow construction on Sundays or holidays. We serve Metro Vancouver and manage strata approval paperwork when needed.
