Dundas Woodwindows and Specialties Inc.

builds success in the Toronto area
with solid family business values
CANADA'S Canadian Design and Construction Report special feature
Over its 31-year history, Toronto based Dundas Wood-
windows and Specialties Inc. has grown from a small cus-
tom wood window manufacturer to one of the largest
dealers of Andersen windows and doors in Canada.

Vice-president Nelson Pereira says the company’s ca-
pacity has grown over time, but its values as a family run
business remain. Working alongside his two sisters, sales
staff, several installation crews and an administrative sup-
port team, the company strives to maintain the values their
father built Dundas on so many years ago.

As the company evolved, adding vinyl windows in the
90s and other products and lines since, Pereira says the
focus has always been to partner with firms who can pro-
vide quality and unique products.

“Only quality brands such as Andersen, Lepage and Os-

taco are sold here,” he said. “We work with our clients to
select the best option for their particular project – whether
it is a whole home renovation or single window replace-
ment – so offering what we consider the best in the indus-
try is critical.”
Selecting the best option means discussing not only cli-
mate considerations, but also longevity and maintenance
expectations. “When you start with quality product, com-
bine skilled installation and dedicated after installation serv-
ice, you know you’ll do right by your customer.”
He says the company primarily serves the Greater
Toronto Area. It has also supplied its product to clients for
use in cottage country, and has also shipped product to the
Caribbean and overseas at the request of clients. “We pride
ourselves on our relationships and the fact that we have a
lot of repeat business and a lot of referrals is a testament
to that,” Pereira said.
