Installation of New Back Screen Door

I love my new back screen door that was just installed today. The installation technician came right on time and the job was done in an hour! I liked working with the original sales representative, but have to say between the time I put the deposit down and got the installation done, there was quite a bit of time between getting my door installed. I was not kept up to date on the progress of the installation of my screen door. I was the one that had to keep calling GEM Windows and Doors and that was a bit upsetting for me. Their communication could be better. However when I did call GEM Windows the representatives were polite. I wasn't always able to speak to the person in charge of installation as they were busy, so there was a lot of telephone tag going on! I am very happy with the outcome, albeit a bit of work on my part to get connected to a representative between my initial deposit and installation. Thank you!

Thank you for taking the time to write this review.

We're glad that 'smilingsuzie' is happy with her new screen door. We were delayed in getting the opening remeasured due to catching up with all the postponed non-GreenOn installs from 2018. So, we had limited info to pass on early on after the order was placed. There was no shortage of polite, friendly people to answer the phone at GEM where we take pride in not sending our customers down an automated rabbit hole!

Regards,
Team GEM!

Windows and Entey door

Gem Windows and Doors did an amazing job. Right from the start with my sales Rep and the office staff were very helpful with picking out the right products and didn’t oversell me. The installers came promptly on the day of installation and did an amazing job, they were polite, professional and friendly and they also cleaned up after. Thank you Gem window and Doors for a great experience.

New windows, front door and patio door

We had initially purchased two doors from Gem last year and were very happy with the customer service in store and after purchase (Tas was very patient and informative). We were also very happy with the quality of the product and the professional installation (Ziggy and his team are very good at what they do). When we decided to replace all of the windows and patio door for our home last fall, we didn’t hesitate to go back to Gem, and work with Tas again! Once again, Tas was extremely helpful and was always quick to answer any questions we had along the way. The windows and doors look beautiful!

New Windows

The staff at GEM Windows & Doors were a pleasure to work with from start to finish and made the whole process a positive experience. I received excellent customer service, great attention to detail, and good communication from the company. All appointments with sales rep and installers were honored and punctual. The windows were expertly installed, and the house was left with minimal clean-up. The new windows are a beautiful addition to my home and I would highly recommend this company to family and friends.

Windows Replacement

Most of the window salesmen I talked to had a long list of discounts if I signed immediately. Gem gave me a quote and waited until I could sit down with them and get my questions answered. It was a good experience and I bought from them.

New Windows

I had GEM windows and Doors come out and give a price on replacing some rather lager office windows. The weather was a factor for the installation so it was delayed but the windows were measured incorrectly so that delayed things a little further. Luckily the old windows hadn't been taken out yet. They were quick to correct the issue and now the windows are in. They look great and we notice the difference in temperature inside now is much warmer.

5 windows and 1 door

From start to finish, we have been very happy with Gem Windows and Doors. Tas was very helpful, kind and patient with us, whilst we worked out what we needed to do to our house. We highly recommend you speak to her for all your window and door needs! Lily was great at arranging our installation, and happily worked around our busy schedule to find a time that suited us. We had our windows and doors installed this week, by fabulous fitters, and they look brilliant. We are really happy and will be back to get the rest of our windows and doors replaced. Thank you Gem.

Substitution of brand - 26 Windows

Finalized an order for 26 platinum series armor windows (brand stated on written and signed contract) in late Dec 2018. Asked for an update in Jan 2019 and was told product was in production. Got an email a few days ago stating GEM is unable to provide that brand and is forcing me to change to a different brand that has only been around for "several months".

GEM has stated that if I don't follow through with this order and change that I would be violating the contract and forfeiting my deposit.

I placed my order with a specific brand that has been around for over 25 years. I did not accept this change and they (GEM) is refusing to refund my deposit.

I have filed a complaint with the Ministry of Government and Consumer Services.

Building a new home and now facing a big delay due to this.
Buyer beware.

Dear readers,

Not exactly the whole truth. At GEM we are not in a position due to pending legal actions to provide complete details, but here are some points to consider. The customer indicates that the order was finalized in December 2018. It was actually signed on Labour Day weekend at the beginning of September. There were many delays because of issues that our customer apparently had with his project. Even though the original quote had expired, we honoured the original pricing and also amended the contract as per the customer's request. While delays occurred at the customer's end, the situation with suppliers changed. Yes, GEM has offered the customer a better window that costs us more at the same price because we believe it is in the customer's best interests. Is this offer being turned down because the company is relatively new? We don't believe it is. We believe the customers overall issues make it likely that they simply want to get out of their contract completely. Their behavior suggests to us that they are simply trying to break their commitment.

Regards,
TEAM GEM
