Window and Door Replacement in East York
Vinyl (PVC) windows and steel and fiberglass doors, supplied and installed by our own crew in Leaside, O’Connor-Parkview, Old East York and the surrounding streets.
East York is a neighbourhood of small brick houses on quiet, tree-lined streets, and many of them are heading into their eighth decade. The postwar bungalows and one-and-a-half storey homes that fill Old East York and O’Connor-Parkview were built well, but their windows were not. Original wood, steel or early aluminum frames let heat out and noise in, especially close to the Don Valley and the traffic on O’Connor Drive and Don Mills Road. Accent Windows & Doors replaces windows and doors across East York with our own crew. A free in-home quote comes first, every time.
Window and Door Replacement for East York Homes
East York is compact, and the homes are more alike than in most parts of Toronto. That makes it easier to plan a replacement, and easier to get it wrong if the installer skips the measuring.
Old East York and Woodbine-Lumsden are rows of modest postwar bungalows with small, tidy front windows. Leaside is a planned neighbourhood of tree-lined streets, with 1940s and 1950s brick homes sitting beside new custom builds, and replacement windows there have to suit both. O’Connor-Parkview and Bennington Heights have a mix of bungalows, semis and larger homes on ravine-edge lots. In Taylor-Massey and Broadview North you find narrow, older houses closer to the Danforth.
A small house has fewer windows, so each one matters. We measure every opening on site and order each window to fit.

Windows We Install in East York
We supply and install vinyl (PVC) casement, slider, bay and bow windows. In a small bungalow, a casement opens fully and gives you real airflow from a narrow opening. Sliders fit the low, wide windows common in postwar kitchens and bedrooms. A bay or bow can open up a cramped front room. Read more on our window replacement page, including glass options.
Entry Doors for East York Houses
Front doors on East York houses sit close to the sidewalk, so they set the look of the street. We supply and install steel and fiberglass entry doors, with sidelites and transoms where the opening allows. A sidelite is a good fit for a narrow front hall in a small bungalow. See styles on our entry door replacement page. Doors are covered for 10 years on the slab and glass and 5 years on the finish. For back decks and yards we also install sliding and French patio doors.
How the Install Works
Brick houses need the method matched to the opening. After the in-home visit we recommend brick to brick, retrofit or stud to stud, and our installation methods page shows how each differs. Windows are built to order over 4 to 6 weeks, then installed in 1 to 2 days for most houses.

East York Window and Door Replacement FAQs
What does window replacement cost for an East York house?
Most East York homes are small to mid-size, so the number of windows is usually modest. Price still depends on window count, sizes, styles, glass and install method. A free in-home quote gives you a firm number.
My bungalow still has its 1950s windows. Should I replace them?
If the frames rattle, the paint is peeling off a wood sash or the glass fogs, they are done. Windows that age were not built for today’s heating costs. We inspect them at the quote and tell you what we find.
I’m renovating my house in East York. When should I order windows?
Tell us early. If a renovation or addition is planned, we can match the new windows to the rest of the work and avoid ordering in two batches.
Can you match my neighbour’s windows on a semi?
We can match style and colour closely. We bring samples to the visit so you can hold them against your wall.
How long will the whole job take?
Windows take 4 to 6 weeks to build. The install itself takes 1 to 2 days for most houses.
How long is the warranty?
Windows are covered for 25 years, doors for 10 years on the slab and glass and 5 on the finish, and our installation for 10 years.
Does a window replacement need a permit in Toronto?
Replacing windows in the same openings usually does not need a building permit. Enlarging or moving an opening does. We confirm what applies at the quote.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. We are licensed, insured and WSIB covered.
