Still waiting for a response

Order was placed in August 2022, deposit taken on October 25,2022. I've been trying to get a status update on if and when we can get an installation date but sales rep doesn't respond to phone calls, voice mail or text messages. Call head office to get some action and only get promises to get sales rep to reach out, no response. Call to speak with higher up and can only get a voice mail. Not exactly a bell ringer with respect to customer service. I'm on the verge of pulling the plug but fear getting my deposit back will be a nightmare. Be for warned. Consider a deposit only if and when they can provide a real commitment.

Received a response and corrective action has been taken. We expect installation in the near future and will update the response based on the final work. I appreciate the effort and understand the issues with supply the supply chain. This was never the issue. We simply would like to stay informed and we were not getting any responses on our requests for information (very frustrating). I look forward to the final stages. Thanks

Hello Alain,

Thank you for reaching out, your review is very important to us and we apologize for your inconvience. We must also apologize for the lack of communication between our sales rep and you. We are sorry and very disappointed to see that you feel your recent experience with us was a 0-star-rating. Unfortunately, we cannot control the wait times on patio doors, we ourselves are not the manufacturers of the patio doors, and we are at the mercy of the suppliers. Since the Covid-19 impacted all our lives product delays are very common and are beyond our control, we try very hard to accommodate all our customers quickly and efficiently. There is an industry-wide shortage of some key raw materials and this supply disruption has affected the timely production of windows and doors causing late deliveries and installations. We assure you that we are doing everything possible to resolve the situation and avoid delays. We have reached out to the supplier and your local branch manager will contact you to update you on the status of your order. We hope after the installation of your doors that you will reconsider your 0-rating and give us a chance to earn your confidence again. We value your business and would like to retain you as a customer.


We wish you the best!

Follow up service after installation

I had a big order of new windows in 2015 from Clera. Most of them were casement windows which require a hand crank to operate the opening mechanism. I am generally happy with the windows so far. However, I was having some issues with the opening gear stripping and therefore no longer working to actually open the windows. I contacted my local Clera rep for some time (over 6 months) to get the repairs, but no luck / no response. I then contacted Clera Head office, and they were able to send me the parts needed at no charge because of the Lifetime Warranty. Thanks to Clera Head Office for helping me out.

Windows and doors

The windows and doors themselves are great. The installation and trim work are just OK. We believed that all of the windows purchased were energy star rated but found our during our energy audit that one did not qualify. It would have been nice to know this ahead of time.

Hi Private User,

We are incredibly grateful that you took the time to leave us this note. We are very pleased to hear that your new windows and doors are great. We are sorry to hear that one of your windows did not qualify for the rebate. The reason your window did not qualify for the energy rebate is because you requested for the bathroom window to be frosted for privacy. Frosted windows do not qualify for the energy rebate.
Thank you again for your feedback and for your business!

Best regards to you!
