The Problem

## Plaza Break-In or Failing Home Glass in Scarborough?

The local problem

### Second-round glass failures in Malvern's 1970s model-community homes

What you see

Patio sliders that will not seal and windows hazed between the panes, often in three or four rooms of the same townhouse.

Why it happens here

Malvern was built by CMHC as a model community of affordable homes, and its first residents moved in in 1972, so the original glass and its first replacements are now both wearing out across whole streets.

What we do

Insulated glass unit replacement swaps failed units inside the existing frames, quoted window by window so owners and landlords can spread the work out.

### Plywood that stays up for weeks

A vague "next week" lead time leaves the opening boarded and the store looking closed. We quote lead times from the fabricator's confirmed order date, in writing.

### Sealed units ordered by size alone

A unit ordered by width and height arrives at the wrong thickness or coating and gets rejected. Every order starts with a micrometer reading and the spacer stamp.

### Annealed glass where code needs safety glass

Doors, sidelites and low glazing must be CSA A440 safety glass under OBC Part 9. We still find plain float in patio doors and bathrooms.

### Insurance gaps on vague invoices

A one-line invoice invites the adjuster to cut it. Ours list glass type, thickness, sealant and board-up separately, and we direct-bill most claims.

How Every Job Runs

## How It Works in 5 Steps

The same five steps on a $185 pane and a $8,500 curtain wall bay, which is how the crew can put a 2-year warranty in writing.

1.  1
    
    ### Step 1: Assessment and make-safe
    
    Broken glass is cleared, the frame is checked and the opening is boarded with 15mm OSB if needed. Photos go to your insurer before anything moves.
    
2.  2
    
    ### Step 2: Measurement
    
    Laser and micrometer measurement of glass thickness, overall unit thickness and sash channels, plus a read of the spacer stamp so the new unit matches.
    
3.  3
    
    ### Step 3: Glass sourcing
    
    Ordered direct from Pilkington, Cardinal and Guardian with certified warm-edge spacers. Every safety lite carries its CSA A440 stamp.
    
4.  4
    
    ### Step 4: Dry-fit and spec check
    
    Edge grinds, squareness and setting block placement are checked before anything is sealed, so the glass sits right in the frame.
    
5.  5
    
    ### Step 5: Install, seal and warranty
    
    Glazing, gasket seating, Dow Corning 795 perimeter seal and the written 2-year workmanship warranty printed on the final invoice.

Local Knowledge

## From Guildwood Bungalows to Malvern Townhouses

Scarborough housing comes in clear waves. **Guildwood** started in 1957 with the Avenue of Homes display, and the neighbourhood runs right up to the **Scarborough Bluffs**, so many of its houses still carry original French doors and wood sash.

**Malvern** came later. CMHC took over the farmland to build a model community of affordable homes, and the first residents moved in in 1972. Those townhouses and semis are now on their second round of sealed units and patio sliders, often several in one home.

Along Highway 401 and **Eglinton Avenue East**, plazas account for most of our night board-ups, and multi-residential blocks near the **University of Toronto Scarborough** campus need glass fixed between tenancies.

Local Logistics

### Night Runs East on the 401

Every home and plaza here is in the 416, so the emergency window is 2 hours, 24/7. The crew runs the 401 east, which puts Agincourt, Malvern and the plazas along the 401 corridor within easy reach at night. Guildwood, Scarborough Village and Birch Cliff are reached via Kingston Road and Eglinton East.

Plaza break-ins are mostly night calls, when roads are clear. Daytime installs at multi-residential blocks near the University of Toronto Scarborough campus are booked with building superintendents so tenants are notified in advance.

 replaced in bulk and rotating-tenant damage fixed quickly, with strata-friendly billing. **Older homes in Guildwood, Scarborough Village and Birch Cliff**, some near the Scarborough Bluffs, have original French doors, wood sash and early sealed units that the crew re-glazes rather than replaces.

For landlords with many units, the crew surveys the building and quotes unit by unit, so repairs can be scheduled between tenancies.

Local Questions

## Scarborough Glass Repair Questions

### How fast can you board up a plaza in Scarborough?

Inside 2 hours, 24/7. Plaza calls along Highway 401 and Eglinton Avenue East are routine night work, and 15mm OSB is usually up within the hour of arrival.

### My Malvern townhouse has several foggy windows. Can they be done in stages?

Yes. Malvern homes date from 1972, and many are on their second set of sealed units. Each unit is $350-$680 with a 10-year seal warranty, and we quote window by window so you can start with the worst.

### Can you re-glaze an original French door in Guildwood?

Yes. Guildwood houses date from 1957 onward, and many French doors are still sound. The lite is re-glazed in the existing stile-and-rail with tempered glass for $380-$650.

### Do you work with landlords near the UTSC campus?

Yes. We survey multi-residential and student buildings, quote unit by unit and schedule work between tenancies, with billing set up for owner or strata accounts.

### What does a storefront board-up and permanent glass cost?

Board-ups run $185-$650 per opening, and permanent storefront panels $1,200-$5,500, often covered by insurance and direct-billed to Intact, Aviva, Economical or Co-operators.

### Do homes near the Bluffs need different glass?

Not different glass, but more checks. Houses along Kingston Road and Guildwood Parkway face open wind off the lake, so the crew checks setting blocks and seals on patio and picture units when replacing glass there.

Still have a question?

The crew answers the phone 24/7 and replies to messages within the day.
