FROM JACK’S DESK…

We don’t do cheap!! Just a few observations about how the window and siding renovation industry is changing…..

One disturbing trend I’ve noticed the past couple of years is that there are more and more people with very little experience calling themselves window and siding contractors. Sure, they may have adequate experience as a roofer or as a new construction siding installer, or they may be a reasonable ‘handyman’, but nothing can substitute for over thirty five years of experience in the renovation window and siding replacement industry.

It was around 1990 that we at Jack’s decided to get away from doing subdivision new construction siding work and concentrate on renovation window and siding replacement.

That meant getting away from low gauge and low quality products and sourcing out heavier gauge siding and aluminum soffit and eavestrough products. That meant focusing on higher standards in installation practices and not free lancing or sub-contracting any work out.

For example, we are the only local siding company that I know of, that fastens all of their eavestrough components with rustfree coloured aluminum rivets, instead of painted zinc screws that rusts. We only install aluminum soffit that is about 50% thicker than what you will find at the local lumberyards and even most siding suppliers. And that same principal applies to the vinyl siding and the custom vinyl wall shingle that we install. And there is a world of a difference in the vinyl window that we sell, compared to what you will find from the local building supply retailers…

So if your main concern is a low price, don’t call us. Instead, go ahead and call your ‘friend of a friend of a friend’ who will do the job for less, quite often for cash. But if you want a reasonably priced window, siding or eavestrough installation, call the company that is fiercely proud of every job that we do. Call the local siding contractor who will only use installers who have decades of experience, and who warranties everything they install. Call the company that does everything above the table.

Call the company that has withstood the test of time.

Call Jack’s Aluminum Limited. After all, we know how to install, and we also know how not to install…

We are reasonable but, we don’t do cheap!!

Enjoy the end of the ‘Summer holiday’ season!!.

Buy from your local window and siding contractor…Jack’s Aluminum Ltd. We are here to stay…Since 1976.
