A window in its own opening

What’s included
What a new windowjob covers.
Windows for a Newmarket house are measured to each opening and ordered, 30 minutes from the shop; a window in the same opening needs no building permit from the Town of Newmarket, a larger opening or a new window where there was none is a structural change that Town of Newmarket Building Division (Planning and Building Services) reviews, and on a designated house in Lower Main Street South Heritage Conservation District the heritage permit comes first.
02New
A new or larger window
A window where there was none, or a bigger one, is a different job: drawings, a lintel and inspections can come with it.
- New installations
- Opening checked
- Drawings and lintel
- Inspections if required
03Exits
Bedroom and basement
The replacement keeps a style and sash that meet the opening size, because the window in a bedroom must open without tools from inside.

Rated 4.9 out of 5 from 70 reviews on Google (opens Google Maps)After years of dents and damage from hockey pucks, our new garage door looks amazing!!
I’m very happy with the work done on my front door and garage door. … Both doors look amazing …
Everyone else told me I’d be waiting anywhere from 6 weeks to 4 months just to get a door delivered and installed.
My garage spring and cables snapped on a Sunday afternoon, Moe was able to swing by the next morning …
Great Service by Moe, very clean job, on time and no surprises.
It completely changed the look of my home and has already received so many compliments.
The work was done in 5 hours and they cleaned up after themselves leaving no trace of my old garage door and front door.
I called Moe he was here in the same hour and we got our new doors in two days
He didn’t just fix the immediate problem … made sure the door was running smoother and quieter than before.
We were presented with multiple options and given the pros and cons of each.
… replacing my destroyed garage door for a beautiful modern style door.
Replaced my front door and garage door with a remote. … the finished work looks amazing.
I had a quote within a day … and the new door installed by that weekend.
Garage door spring was broken. Moe was able to come out the next day and fit it.
Moe takes the time to get to know what your needs are and has affordable recommendations.
Moe did an excellent job replacing our old, worn down garage door with a beautiful, heavy duty white one.
… he was here the next day and we had our garage doors and front doors done within one week.
The whole process was seamless and I couldn’t believe how fast the job was completed without any hiccups.
… came on short notice to take a look. He quickly diagnosed the problem and had it fixed in no time.
They were super on time, super efficient, and the price was dead on.

Real jobs on our customers’ houses, recreated from the photos we took: the door we took down, and the one we hung in its place.
Both doors on one house.
The garage door and the front doors were both brown: raised panels with square lites, and double doors with grid lites in a white frame. We replaced them together in one grey, so the two now match across the front of the house.

What Newmarket homeowners ask about window replacement, and the questions every door raises.

Planning a new door5 questions
The count and size of the openings come first. In Newmarket the next question is whether any opening is new or larger, since the Town lists new and enlarged window and door openings as permit work, and a heritage permit inside the Lower Main Street South district adds a step before the order. No per-window price is posted: the estimate is free, and the figure comes before the work.
No duration is quoted for windows, because it depends on how many openings are done and whether any is new or larger. What this town adds is a step before the work: a building permit where an opening grows, applied for through the Development Portal, or a heritage permit inside the district. A same-size replacement waits on neither.
Not for a window the same size as the existing one, which Newmarket's building page says typically needs no permit. A new or larger opening needs a building permit, and a full window replacement inside the Heritage Conservation District is an alteration that needs a heritage permit.
Yes, by the same crew, together or one at a time. In Newmarket a patio door falls under the same line as a window: the Town says replacing doors or windows the same size as existing typically needs no permit, while a wider patio opening is an enlarged opening and does. The shop is 30 minutes (29.1 km) away in Richmond Hill, and an estimate covers whichever openings you list.
It changes the openings, and openings are where Newmarket's rules begin: the Town lists creating new openings, or increasing the size of existing ones, among the projects that need a building permit. A garage door replaced by a wall with a window is a change to openings. Whether the conversion needs further approvals is a question for the Town.
A door that won't work5 questions
Check three things before you call anyone. Is the opener getting power, or has the plug come out or the breaker tripped? Is the door locked, or has the red release cord been pulled? And look at the springs above the opening: a gap of a couple of inches in a coil means one has snapped, often with a loud bang beforehand. If a spring is broken, do not force the door or keep pressing the button. Stop there and call (647) 323-1826, at any hour.
Yes. Modern Empire Doors is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, holidays included, and the phone is answered at night. A door stuck open is a security problem, and a door stuck shut with the car inside is a lost day, so neither waits for Monday. Some things can wait for a weekday: a noisy door, a remote that stopped while the wall button still works, a torn seal. If you are not sure which yours is, call and ask.
Usually, yes. The parts that fail most often are carried on the van, so most repairs are finished on the first visit. If you text a photo from inside the garage before we come, we can often see what has failed and make sure the right part is with us. The exceptions are parts made for one door, such as a replacement section in a matching design and colour, which may have to be ordered in. In the meantime the door can usually be secured so the garage still locks.
It depends on the part, and most repairs come down to a handful: springs, cables, rollers, the opener or the safety sensors. We would rather tell you the real price for your door than quote a range that does not apply to it, so text a photo from inside the garage to (647) 323-1826 and we can usually tell which part it is before we arrive. Most repairs are finished in one visit, and you hear the price before any work starts.
Often, if the same section is still made. What people call a panel is usually a full-width section, and the new one has to match the make, size, design and colour of the rest. On a newer door from a current series that is usually possible. On an older or discontinued door it may not be, and a mismatched section can look worse than the dent. Sun-faded finishes are the other catch. Send a photo, plus any label on the door's inside edge, and we will tell you honestly.

Yes, where the glass alone is the problem. Newmarket does not ask for a heritage permit to repair a broken pane to its original specification, so inside the district this is the one window job that skips it. A tired frame is a replacement, and a replacement needs the permit.

The number and size of the openings, whether any is new or larger, any permit or heritage step, and the figure for the whole job. The estimate is free, and no price is posted until the openings are known.

Yes, on one estimate. Inside the heritage district the windows and the front door both wait for the heritage permit, so they are planned together. The garage door waits on the Town only if its opening grows.

The guide
Window replacement in Newmarket: good to know.
What is different about window replacement in Newmarket: the houses, the rules and the drive from the shop.
Window replacement in Newmarket, opening by opening
The job is replacement windows and new installations, with each opening measured, the new window trimmed and sealed, and the work done on its own or alongside the doors. A same-size swap leaves the size and support of the opening alone. A window where there was none, or a bigger one, is a different job: drawings, a lintel and inspections can come with it.
Newmarket's heritage rule separates two jobs that look alike. A property inside the Lower Main Street South district that has a whole window replaced is making an alteration, and that is the job that asks for the permit. A cracked pane and a tired frame are therefore different conversations in that part of town, and the first thing asked at an estimate is which of them it is.
Window replacement permits in Newmarket
On Newmarket's building page, creating a new opening or enlarging a door or window opening counts as permit work, so a window that is added or made bigger waits on the Town before work starts. A like-for-like window in the existing opening does not, which is why the first thing settled at an estimate is whether any opening changes.
Applications go in online through the Town's Development Portal, with their documents, and the work is booked afterwards. Inside the heritage district the heritage permit comes before the order, because a window is made to measure once ordered.
Windows and doors in Newmarket, from the first visit
The estimate is free and starts with the openings: how many, how big, and whether any is new. Each is measured, the old window comes out, and the new one is trimmed and sealed. When you want the front of the house finished together, the same crew can hang the garage door and the front door.
Richmond Hill to Newmarket is 30 minutes and 29.1 km. Calls for windows are welcome from Summerhill, Glenway and every other neighbourhood in town.
