Why now
Why Etobicoke homeowners replace their windows and doors
Etobicoke’s mix of established lakeside neighbourhoods and older housing stock means windows and doors take a particular kind of wear. Here is what local homeowners run into most often.
01
Older lakeside housing stock
Many Etobicoke homes near the lake and along Mimico and Long Branch date back several decades, with original single or double-pane windows that let in drafts and moisture off the lake.
02
Wind exposure off Lake Ontario
Etobicoke's southern neighbourhoods sit close to the shoreline, where wind off the lake puts extra strain on older window seals and door frames year-round.
03
Rising energy bills
Drafty windows and doors are one of the biggest sources of heat loss in winter and cooling loss in summer; replacing them is one of the more direct ways to bring utility costs down.

Windows
Window replacement, sized to Etobicoke housing
Casement, double-hung, slider, bay, and basement windows, quoted for your home’s age and exposure to the lake-effect weather common in south Etobicoke.
Casement windows. Crank outward and compress against the frame when closed; the most airtight operating window you can buy, and the right call on walls that face the lake wind.
Double-hung and slider windows. Move within the frame instead of cranking out. They cost less than casements and suit upper floors where an outswing sash is hard to clean.
Bay and bow windows. Project out from the wall, add a shelf of usable space, and pull more light into the room.
Basement windows. Including egress sizing where a basement bedroom needs a legal exit.
Want the process step by step, from final measure to foam and capping? Our window installation Toronto page walks through the whole thing.

Doors
Entry and patio doors that shut out the lake wind
Front entry doors, patio and garden doors, and side or garage-access doors, installed with proper weatherproofing for Ontario winters.
Front entry doors. Steel or fiberglass insulated systems where the slab, frame, weatherstripping, and sill are engineered to work together.
Patio and garden doors. Modern sliders glide on stainless steel rollers and lock at multiple points; hinged garden and French doors suit older Etobicoke homes.
Side and garage-access doors. The forgotten doors that leak the most heat, replaced and sealed to the same standard as the front of the house.
Comparing steel against fiberglass, or sliders against garden doors? See the door installation Toronto page for the full rundown.
2026 price ranges
What window and door replacement costs in Etobicoke
Nobody should walk into a quote blind. These are the ranges most Etobicoke homeowners see in 2026. Your exact price depends on size, material, glass package, and the condition of the openings, but these numbers give you a solid baseline.
Window replacement cost per window
| Window type | Typical installed price |
|---|---|
Standard vinyl windows The most popular choice in Etobicoke: insulates well, never needs painting, and costs less than wood or fiberglass. | $800 to $1,800 |
Bay, bow, and custom shapes Larger and specialty windows need more material and more labour. | $2,500 to $6,000+ |
Basement and egress windows Cutting or enlarging an opening for an egress window adds concrete work. | $2,500 to $5,000 |
Door replacement cost per door
| Door type | Typical installed price |
|---|---|
Steel entry doors The workhorse choice for front doors. | $1,500 to $3,500 |
Fiberglass entry doors Better insulation and a wood look without the upkeep. | $2,500 to $6,000 |
Patio and sliding doors Garden doors and French doors sit at the higher end. | $2,000 to $5,500 |
Quotes far below these ranges usually mean thin frames, no-name glass, or an underinsured crew. A fair number beats a cheap surprise.
