Understanding the Role of Soffit and Fascia Boards
The soffit and fascia are two vital parts of your roof’s structure, as these components not only contribute to the visual appeal of the home but also help protect against the elements. Here is some clarification as to what these are and what they do:
What Is a Soffit?
The soffit is a horizontal board under the eaves of your roof that extends from the side of the house to the edge. It plays an essential role in ventilating a home to prevent moisture buildup and mould growth. A properly installed soffit can extend the lifespan of a roof.
What Is a Fascia?
The fascia is the vertical board running along the edge of the roof behind the gutters. It provides structural support for your roof’s lower edge, securing the eavestroughs in place and preventing water from seeping into the underlying wood. Additionally, the fascia contributes to the overall stability and integrity of your home’s exterior.
Why Soffit and Fascia Replacements Are Necessary
Over time, the soffit and fascia candeteriorate due to exposure to weather conditions, pests, or aging materials.Common issues include:
- Water damage – Leaky eavestroughsor poor drainage can cause water to seep into the fascia, leading to structuraldamage. Peeling paint is one sign of water damage.
- Pest infestations – Birds,squirrels, and insects can sometimes find their way into damaged soffits,creating nests that cause blockages in the ventilation system or damage to theroofline.
- Lack of ventilation – A damagedsoffit can lead to improper airflow, trapping moisture in your attic andresulting in mould growth, increased humidity, and potentially higher energycosts.
When your soffit and fascia arecompromised, it’s crucial to repair or replace them promptly. If leftunchecked, problems with this part of the home can lead to more severe issues,such as structural damage, interior water leaks, or costly roof repairs.

What Are The Benefits Of Window Replacement?
Replacing your old windows with new vinyl windows can provide a range of benefits for your home. It's not only about the upgraded visual look you'll get. Are you noticing fog and condensation between your windowpanes? Are your current windows hard to operate, or are they more than 15 years old? If so, now might be a good time to install new vinyl windows in your home. When you replace your windows, you can enjoy all these benefits.
Improved Aesthetics And Curb Appeal
Window replacement is one of the best ways to improve the aesthetic of your home and its curb appeal. Replacing old windows with new ones can give your home an updated look and feel while increasing its value. With a wide variety of window styles, colours, hardware and grille patterns, you can customize your home to achieve the look you want. For many people and many home styles, symmetrical designs look best in the front of the house. On the other sides of your home, more freedom can be taken to go for a more modern look.
Energy Star Efficiency
Opting for window replacements can help improve energy efficiency by utilizing materials such as IntegraWeld Fusion Welding and energy-efficient features like Low-E coatings, argon gas, and double or triple-pane glass, as well as numerous other upgrades and features depending on the model of window you choose.
These materials and features help insulate the home more effectively, reduce air leakage and lower the amount of ultraviolet light coming into the house, thus reducing energy bills.
Enhanced Security
Replacing your windows with a superior-quality hardware product will increase the durability and security of your home. Open/close and lock/unlock sensors are available, allowing you to keep your home safe and secure. Features such as triple glass, foam-filled frames, multiple-chamber frames, and fusion-welded corners add to the security of your window.
Reduced Noise Levels
Window replacement can reduce noise levels by providing improved insulation in the frames and soundproofing. Newer, energy-efficient double or triple-paned windows absorb daily outside sounds. Foam-filled frames, argon-filled glass, laminated glass, and Low-E coatings also offer excellent insulation and noise cancellation, resulting in an improved overall soundproofing effect.
Improved Comfort
When it comes to replacing windows in a home, they can significantly improve the comfort of a home by providing increased ventilation, higher air quality, and reduced outside noise. Thermal efficiency is greatly enhanced through multiple-chamber frames and sashes, and excellent soundproofing is achieved. The contoured design of newer windows also creates a more modern aesthetic and feel.
For example, horizontal sliders and casements allow for maximum air circulation. At the same time, picture and fixed windows block the elements better. A strategically-oriented casement window can even draw breezes into your home.
Canada Greener Homes Grant Rebates
Replacing windows is a great way to improve the value of your home and save money on heating and cooling costs. To help make the financial burden of replacing windows easier, the Canadian government offers the Canada Greener Homes Grant Rebates. This grant provides up to $5000 in rebates to homeowners who install certain energy-efficient products in their homes, including replacement windows. With this grant, homeowners can enjoy the benefits of window replacement, such as improved insulation, better energy efficiency, and lower heating and cooling bills, without breaking the bank.
You can learn more about this program on the Gentek website.
Cost Savings On Utility Bills
Having your windows replaced is an effective way to save money on your utility bills by creating a better seal for the home and installing energy-efficient features like Low-E coatings, double or triple-paned glass and argon gas. These features can help reduce energy consumption and decrease the air that can escape.
Warranty
Our windows come with a Limited Lifetime Warranty to the original homeowner of the installed windows. You'll have peace of mind knowing these windows were built to last, and should anything come up, the warranty will cover you. We also provide an unbeatable Lifetime Workmanship Guarantee.
Increase Your Home Value
Replacing windows can significantly increase the value of a home in many ways:
- The increased curb appeal from new windows can be a significant draw for potential buyers.
- New windows can improve energy efficiency, meaning lower energy bills for the homeowner and more savings for potential buyers.
- Impact-resistant glass, up-to-date locks, and security sensors provide extra security and peace of mind.
Installing new windows can be a worthwhile investment that can add substantial value to a home.
A Complete Range Of Vinyl Window Types To Choose From
We install the full selection of all the popular vinyl windows types and styles on the market. We have you covered no matter the functionality you're after in your new window installation. And with numerous customization options, you'll be sure to match the windows to your home and personal taste.
Awning Windows
Awning windows are a popular and classic choice for living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms. They are hinged at the top and open outward effortlessly, providing excellent ventilation and natural light.
Casement Windows
Casement windows are an excellent choice for energy efficiency and durability, providing reinforced ventilation and a sleek airflow-controlling design with additional multi-lock security features. They usually open wide and outward like a door. They open with a hand crank, which can act as a stopper to resist wind when open and lock for security. Their versatile design makes them suitable for any space in your home.
Picture & Shapes Windows
Picture windows are a type of window that does not open or close. They are typically used to provide a clear view or to let in natural light. Picture windows can be found in various sizes and shapes. They can be used alone or in combination with other types of windows.
Slider Windows
Slider windows are a type of window that opens horizontally by sliding along a track. They're an excellent option for tight spaces because they don't protrude into the room when they're open. Slider windows are also a good choice if you want to maximize your view because they have larger glass panels than other windows.
Single & Double-Hung Windows
Single-hung windows are a popular and economical type of window. The bottom sash slides up and down, while the top sash is stationary. Double-hung windows have two operating sashes that move up and down, allowing for ventilation on the top, bottom or both.
Bay & Bow Windows
Bay and bow windows are window types that protrude from a home's exterior. Bay windows are typically three-sided, while bow windows are generally four-sided or more. Both bay and bow windows let in more natural light and provide a wider field of view than traditional windows, forming an elegant curve along your space.
Hopper Windows
Hopper windows are hinged at the bottom and open from the top, making them easy to open even if placed high up on a wall. They're ideal for spaces that need ventilation but may be challenging to reach. They're popular in basements because of their design and features.
Our Vinyl Window Product Features
No matter what type of vinyl window you're after, they all come with these industry-leading features.
Top-Tier Construction
Fusion-welded sash and masterframe provide superior strength and structural integrity, while neat, tight corners create a sleek look. Heavy-duty metal gives extra security to your window and makes it easier to install hardware.
Energy-Saving Design
Thermally efficient frame and sash construction use high-performance insulated glass units to block the transfer of heat and cold. This helps keep your home comfortable in both warm weather and cool seasons.
Renovation Masterframe
The bevelled exterior masterframe on double hung, slider and casement helps the window accommodate differing installation methods and architectural styles.
Design Versatility
A generous selection of window accessories ensures the perfect finish for your home. From brickmoulds and jamb extensions to painted interior windows in casement, awning and picture shapes, our vinyl windows have everything you need to make your home look its best.
Super Spacer® Non-Metal Spacer System
A key component to a window's energy efficiency is the spacer system, which creates an insulating air space between the panes of glass. This non-metal design eliminates any metal-to-glass contact, thereby increasing the edge of the glass temperature by more than 16 degrees – resulting in 60% more energy efficiency than a traditional box metal spacer.

Gentek's newest Dual Glazed system is designed to meet the new ENERGY STAR performance requirements, ensuring your windows are cooler and more energy efficient.
- Ultra-efficient glass package can achieve triple-glazed glass performance

A Wide Range Of Colours To Select
Interior Grids
