Our Process

 

There is nothing standard about Tyee windows and patio doors.

We customize every element to suit your needs, from the size, style and shape to the glass and muntin bars.

We’ll even have the vinyl frames painted any colour you desire using long-lasting, environmentally friendly waterborne paint.

As a result of our plant efficiency and control over every aspect of the production process we are able to deliver a high quality custom product for a very competitive price.

Quite simply, you get exactly what you want for less than you’d expect.
