I used supreme windows for replacing a bathroom window and they did a pretty good job.

I looked into this for my older bungalow. Specifically to my bedroom windows, I found out that if you are replacing old windows, the new ones have to be up to the new code:

I was given the name of Greg Martineau who works with older homes but didn't end up changing anything yet:

Let us know what you find!

+1 for supreme windows. We replaced the majority of our windows with them. Great service and our rep, Carl, was great. Make sure you get triple argon. Costs about an extra $50-$75 per window to get them.

Why do you say this? PlyGem is an american company that bought Gienow windows that has produced crap windows and decent windows on and off.

Piela Windows is known to be the high end solution by the way.

Both of my and my inlaws houses have had their windows replaced by a smaller company called Exterior Systems.

They have also replaced a main door and done some smaller renovations for me in the past few years.

They mainly use Gentek Windows but you may have other options.

PM me if you want the contact info.
