Glazing Services and Glass Replacement for Property Owners in Greater Vancouver

At Sky Windows Ltd. we provide all kinds of glazing and glass replacement services for the property and building managers and owners.

Call us any time at 604 657 0381 for a FREE QUOTE!

Common types of glazing that are used in architectural applications include clear and tinted float glass, tempered glass, and laminated glass as well as a variety of coated glasses, all of which can be glazed singly or as double, or even triple, glazing units. Ordinary clear glass has a slight green tinge but special colorless glasses are offered by our manufacturers.





Float Glass
A sheet of glass made by floating molten glass on a bed of molten metal, typically tin, although lead and various low melting point alloys were used in the past. This method gives the sheet uniform thickness and very flat surfaces.

Toughened or Tempered Glass
Type of safety glass processed by controlled thermal or chemical treatments to increase its strength compared with normal glass. Tempering puts the outer surfaces into compression and the inner surfaces into tension. Such stresses cause the glass, when broken, to crumble into small granular chunks instead of splintering into jagged shards as plate glass creates. The granular chunks are less likely to cause injury.

Insulating Glass (IG)
More commonly known as double glazing or double-pane, and increasingly triple glazing/pane, consists of two or three glass window panes separated by a vacuum or gas filled space to reduce heat transfer across a part of the building envelope.

Glazing can be mounted on the surface of a window sash or door stile, usually made of wood, aluminium or PVC. The glass is fixed into a rabbet in the frame in a number of ways including triangular glazing points, putty, etc. Toughened and laminated glass can be glazed by bolting panes directly to a metal framework by bolts passing through drilled holes.

Commercial Storefront Window and Door Glass Repairs Near Me in Metro Vancouver BC

Sky Windows Ltd. team of professionals will fix your commercial storefront window or door glass fast and at a great price anywhere in the Lower Mainland.

Call us any time at 604 657 0381. We are open 24/7!

There are many types of glass we can use for your storefront. Many of the common types of glass have features that make it a great choice for any type of business. If you are considering updating your storefront with a new design, then there are many types of glass you can choose from. Clear glass is the most commonly used option for the storefront of any type of business, which allows anyone to see what is inside the building or business.



Tinted Glass
There are many different grades, shades, colours, and thicknesses of available window films built to offer solutions to a variety of challenges. Window films are a retrofit upgrade for existing glass that can be used to address problems inherent to glazing, including:

- Heat and glare reduction
- Thermal insulation
- UV filtration
- Safety and security
- Privacy
- Decoration, Signage and branding
- Protection from graffiti

Window films are an extremely cost-effective method to reduce heating and cooling costs in existing buildings by reducing the amount of heat transfer through glazing.

Security Glass
This type of glass is becoming more popular for storefronts because of its ability to resist shattering. If the glass does break, then an external film or an internal laminate holds the window together.

Toughened glass
Toughened glass is processed by controlled thermal or chemical treatments to increase its strength compared with normal glass. Tempering, by design, creates balanced internal stresses which causes the glass sheet, when broken, to crumble into small granular chunks of similar size and shape instead of splintering into random, jagged shards.

Laminated glass
Laminated glass is layers of glass and plastic. When laminated glass is broken, it is held in place by an interlayer, typically of polyvinyl butyral (PVB), between its two or more layers of glass, which crumble into small pieces. The interlayer keeps the layers of glass bonded even when broken, and its toughening prevents the glass from breaking up into large sharp pieces. This produces a characteristic "spider web" cracking pattern when the impact is not enough to completely pierce the glass.

Tempered Glass
Glass that is tempered is another type of safety design used for a storefront. This glass is treated with a chemical or thermal application to give it increased strength. The result is glass that breaks into chunks instead of sharp pieces.

Broken Window Seal and Fogged Glass Repairs in Vancouver BC

If you have noticed fogged glass in your windows or doors then you have a problem with the broken seals. Sky Windows Ltd. will fix that for you fast and at an affordable price.

Call us now at 604 657 0381 even it's an emergency!



Unfortunately there is no good solution for windows with blown seals you can do on your own. The glass needs to be replaced. Luckily the window itself doesn't need replacement.

If you look between between the sheets of glass in your windows you will see a spacer. That is the thing keeping the glass panes apart. It is also the source of the leak that is allowing moisture between the panes.

There are a number of different materials used for spacers and a number of methods for sealing the insulating glass unit, some are very good and some are not very good. The best ones will have a seal failure rate of well below a fraction of 1% over 20 years. The not so good ones are closer to 6% or 7% (or more) over 20 years.

Company That Will Repair Window Condensation and Mould Problems in Greater Vancouver

One of the biggest problems in every household is mould or mold caused by window condensation or leaking windows. Sky Windows Ltd. specializes in window and glass replacement. We will advise you the best and least expensive solution for your property.

Call us now at 604 657 0381 for a FREE CONSULTATION!

There are several types of window condensation like Interior Condensation, Exterior Condensation, Condensation Between Window Panes we can take care of.



Mold (American English) or mould (British English) is part of the natural environment. Outdoors, molds play a part in nature by breaking down dead organic matter such as fallen leaves and dead trees; indoors, mold growth should be avoided. Molds reproduce by means of tiny spores. The spores are invisible to the naked eye and float through the air. Mold may begin growing indoors when spores land on moist surfaces. There are many types of mold, but all require moisture for growth.

Studies have shown that people who are atopic, already suffer from allergies, asthma, or compromised immune systems and occupy damp or moldy buildings are at an increased risk of health problems such as inflammatory and toxic responses to mold spores, metabolites and other components. The most common health problem is an allergic reaction. Other problems are respiratory and/or immune system responses including respiratory symptoms, respiratory infections, exacerbation of asthma, and rarely hypersensitivity pneumonitis, allergic alveolitis, chronic rhinosinusitis and allergic fungal sinusitis. Severe reactions are rare but possible. A person's reaction to mold depends on their sensitivity and other health conditions, the amount of mold present, length of exposure and the type of mold or mold products.

Some molds also produce mycotoxins that can pose serious health risks to humans and animals. The term "toxic mold" refers to molds that produce mycotoxins, such as Stachybotrys chartarum, not to all molds. Exposure to high levels of mycotoxins can lead to neurological problems and in some cases death. Prolonged exposure, e.g., daily workplace exposure, can be particularly harmful.

We get hundreds of inquiries every week and here is our top list:

Double Glazing for Thermal Insulation
Glass used in double glazing window for thermal insulation is known as Low E, or low-emission glass. It has a transparent metallic coating that works in two ways to economize heating energy. The dual action coating reflects heat back into the room, whilst allowing heat and light from the sun to pass through.

Laminated Glass
Laminated glass is comprised of one or more inter-layers, sandwiched between two or more sheets of float glass. The inter-layers are composed of a PVB (polyvinyl butyal) laminate, or cast resin.

Glass Against Vandalism and Infraction
Security glass offers protection against aggression and can act as an important deterrent against vandalism and infraction.

Acoustic Glass
Acoustic glass considerably reduces outside noise, especially near busy areas such as motorways, main roads and airports. When used in overhead or roof glazing, double glazing window also provides insulation from rain impact noise. It can be used for interior sound insulation needs, such as office partitions and meeting rooms.

Toughened Glass
Toughened, or tempered, glass is four to five times stronger than ordinary float glass. If it is broken relatively harmless fragments, known as ‘dice’, are formed which are unlikely to cause injury.

Safety Glass
Safety glass is now mandatory in some areas of the home, as well as throughout some types of buildings such as schools. Glass used in roofs must also meet safety requirements in case of an object falling on to the double glazing window which could cause fragments falling below.

Colorful Glass
Decorative glass for glazing can be manufactured in a variety of ways to give a wide choice of patterns, textures, colors and opacity. Decorative glass effects can be created on double glazing window panels by silvering, tinting, acid-etching or applying ceramic paints. The design can offer partial or total coverage, for improved aesthetics and privacy.

Who Can Fix Broken Skyscraper Window or Door Glass in Greater Vancouver BC

What to do when you or someone else in your household breaks a window or door glass in the skyscraper or tall building you live? Don't worry and call Sky Windows Ltd. at 604 657 0381 anytime 24/7.



A skyscraper is a tall, continuously habitable building having multiple floors. When the term was originally used in the 1880s it described a building of 10 to 20 floors but now describes one of at least 40–50 floors. Mostly designed for office, commercial and residential uses, a skyscraper can also be called a high-rise, but the term "skyscraper" is often used for buildings higher than 50 m (164 ft). For buildings above a height of 300 m (984 ft), the term "supertall" can be used, while skyscrapers reaching beyond 600 m (1,969 ft) are classified as "megatall".



One common feature of skyscrapers is having a steel framework that supports curtain walls. These curtain walls either bear on the framework below or are suspended from the framework above, rather than resting on load-bearing walls of conventional construction. Some early skyscrapers have a steel frame that enables the construction of load-bearing walls taller than of those made of reinforced concrete.

Modern skyscrapers' walls are not load-bearing, and most skyscrapers are characterized by large surface areas of windows made possible by steel frames and curtain walls. However, skyscrapers can have curtain walls that mimic conventional walls with a small surface area of windows. Modern skyscrapers often have a tubular structure, and are designed to act like a hollow cylinder to resist wind, seismic, and other lateral loads. To appear more slender, allow less wind exposure, and transmit more daylight to the ground, many skyscrapers have a design with setbacks, which are sometimes also structurally required.

Split-level type homes
a design of house that was commonly built during the 1950s and 1960s. It has two nearly equal sections that are located on two different levels, with a short stairway in the corridor connecting them. This kind of house is quite suitable for building on slanted or hilly land.

A thief climbed the roof of the adjacent building, then got on to the building of a high end merchandise store, and then smashed the skylight glass with a brick. That’s how the thief entered the store. As the result the thief stole merchandise valued at $10,000 before VPD officers showed up. In the picture you can see a temporary cover that is placed there until the unbreakable specialty glass is received and installed.

There are many types of glass doors we work with, but these are the most common ones:

HINGED SINGLE GLASS DOORS
A hinged door is the most traditional option, with a swiveling hinge on one side of the door frame enabling the other side of the door to swing open from the wall. A single hinged door can open inwards, outwards or both and can be for internal or external use.

FRENCH GLASS DOORS
French doors are basically a pair of singled hinged doors that open away from each other. Traditionally, they have multiple timber-framed glass panels and swing inwards, but today, anything goes. Used for both interior and exterior doors, they provide an elegant transition between rooms and spaces.

BI-FOLD GLASS DOORS
Bi-fold doors are made up of a series of individual folding door panels that, like the single hinged doors, can be framed or frame-less. They are generally made up of two or more hinged panels that fold or concertina along a sill track, and can be pushed to one or both sides of the structural opening.

PIVOT GLASS DOORS
Pivot doors have hinges mounted at the top and bottom of the door, often at a center or off-center point. This means that when the door is open, it is both inside and outside. Pivot doors can be singular or multiple, as as in the example pictured here.

SLIDING GLASS DOORS
Sliding glass doors open sideways rather than inwards or outwards, gliding alongside another glass panel or the framework of the house. Sliding doors allow for expansive glass walls to maximize views, offering a transition between indoor and outdoor spaces.

STACKING GLASS DOORS
Stacking doors look like sliding doors, but contain more moving panels. They are often comprised of two or more panels that slide behind one fixed panel or structural element. Each panel collects and interlocks with the next panel, causing it to slide.

Here is the most commonly used glass we work with:

Clear Float Glass
Float glass is a sheet of glass made by floating molten glass on a bed of molten metal, typically tin, although lead and various low melting point alloys were used in the past. This method gives the sheet uniform thickness and very flat surfaces.

Tinted Glass
Tinted glass is produced by adding metal oxides to float glass during manufacture. Tinted glass absorbs and re-radiates solar energy reducing heat and in can provide cost efficient climate control. Tinted glass also reduces sun glare and is aesthetically appealing.

Reflective Glass
Reflective Glass achieves offers greater solar control than standard tinted float glass and can be used to create a specific visual appearance in a building.

Toughened Glass
Toughened or tempered glass is a type of safety glass processed by controlled thermal or chemical treatments to increase its strength compared with normal glass. Tempering puts the outer surfaces into compression and the inner surfaces into tension. Such stresses cause the glass, when broken, to crumble into small granular chunks instead of splintering into jagged shards as plate glass (a.k.a. annealed glass) creates. The granular chunks are less likely to cause injury.

Laminated Glass
Laminated glass is a type of safety glass that holds together when shattered. In the event of breaking, it is held in place by an interlayer, typically of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), between its two or more layers of glass. The interlayer keeps the layers of glass bonded even when broken, and its high strength prevents the glass from breaking up into large sharp pieces. This produces a characteristic "spider web" cracking pattern when the impact is not enough to completely pierce the glass. In the case of the EVA, the thermoset EVA, offers a complete bounding (cross-linking) with the material whether it is glass, polycarbonate, PET, or other types products.

LowE Glass
Low Emissivity glass has a thin metallic coating on the glass that reflects thermal radiation or inhibits its emission reducing heat transfer through the glass. Low E glass reflects the radiation rather than absorbing it, improving insulation. LowE glass is available in a range of colours including, Clear, Neutral, Blue, Green and Grey

Double Glazing
Insulating glass (IG), more commonly known as double glazing (or double-pane, and increasingly triple glazing/pane), consists of two or three glass window panes separated by a vacuum or gas filled space to reduce heat transfer across a part of the building envelope.
