Had this company replace the caulk around windows on my house. They did a great job and left no mess to clean up. The two gents that did the work were very nice and appeared to know their stuff. Would use them again hands down.
This first class family run business uses old fashioned business practices that really resonate with us----on time, polite, straight talk about options and costs, happy to answer questions and demonstrate product uses. No loud music, swearing or mess to clean up. These folks bring the window cleaner and the broom to the job site!
We have used them twice now and will continue to do so in the future. They have quickly become our 'go to' contractor for household projects.
It was a pleasure to work with Anita and Steve of Brako Building Cpncepts who recently replaced some windows in my home in which the seals had failed. They provided me with excellent windows and installation in a very timely fashion. I have hired them three times now and have been very pleased with their service. Steve and his crew were here on time and completed the work very quickly and efficiently.
My wife and I contacted Anita and Steven early in the summer of 2016 to replace all of the windows and doors in our home. We had interviewed over a dozen window and door companies a couple of years prior to this and recalled clearly that Brako Construction really stood out from the other companies. In particular we recall Anita's attention to the specific details of our project and the manner in which she conducted herself when establishing our requirements.
We contacted Anita just before Summer of 2016 once we were ready to proceed with our project. Just as we had observed previously she had a penchant for details and recalled the specifics of our prior meeting precisely. Within less than a week of that conversation we had the pleasure of meeting her husband when both Anita and Steven met with us to confirm measurements and assess the best product for our application.
In addition to a request to widen our door openings, our project had some additional complications due to the fact that we had delayed this project several years and the wooden window frames had become quite soft / rotten and we were anticipating significant water damage to our walls.
We openly shared our concerns unsure if Steven and Anita would accept our project, however they were very receptive and consequently advised this was a normal matter of business and they would address these matters accordingly as necessary.
Following the advice we received during that consultation we agreed to install fiberglass windows and doors from long time manufacturer Berdick Windows and Doors ( 1969 ) located in Winkler, Manitoba. We wanted a high quality maintenance free product with modern styling to replace the original wooden windows and doors which were installed at the time our home was built (1989) and these certainly fit the bill.
Our project proceeded mid-October 2016 due to unforseen delays in the manufacturing process. Steven and his sons Andrew and David arrived to our home and began the process of removing and replacing our windows and doors.
As suspected, there was significant water damage to the front exterior wall in which a large picture window had been mounted necessitating complete replacement of the wall. Conveniently, this work was compounded by the typical October rain and cold temperatures. Steven and his sons maintained complete composure and focus while professionally and methodically completing our project exactly as discussed.
We are incredibly happy to have completed our renovation with Brako Construction !!!
We look forward to working with them once again during the 2017 construction season as we continue on with our home renovations.
Most sincerely,
Ian and Marcela
Prior to the installation, Anita called us a week before and informed us that Steven and his crew will be measuring the window to be replaced. On the day they came , they went straight to work and made sure that the heat in the house was not wasted by taking out the whole window, scrap the tidbits of wood and glue and install the new window right away. Their efficiency at what they do is impeccable. I though that was the end of it....But Wait!....There's more!
You know how some contractors after doing their job, they just pick up their tools and go? Steven and his crew were completely the opposite. Knowing that its a brand new window, they took the time to educate us on "not to touch its for the next couple of hours". They were also very detailed. They cleaned the glass of any smudges or marks and any caulk residue.around the window.
Aside from being professionals, they also had great "positive" attitude. With in the one hour they worked, Steven's sense of humor (which kept us in stitches) also brightened our day!
Great job guys! highly recommended!
I was VERY pleased with the installation of replacement windows by the Brako crew. The work began on schedule. The crew was effecient, professional and knowledgeable. Work was completed in one day. I was impressed by the care and detail to workmanship as well as their consideration to clean up after completion of work. An excellent job. We are very pleased with the choice of windows and Contractor. I would certainly hire Brako Inc in the future.
I would highly recommend Brako Inc to everyone.
We are extremely pleased with the Berdick fiberglass windows supplied by Brako that we chose. They are of very high quality and we were very impressed that we could get any Benjamin Moore color on the outside and a different colour on the inside. Consequently they match our house exterior and interior perfectly and they are of very high quality for this sun baked location.
Brako Building Concepts did a great job on the installation especially given the large size of these windows. We felt that we had an ally looking out for our best interests. Finally, the price was much less than Home Depot for just painted PVC with minimal fixed colour selection .....no comparison in products.....fiberglass vs PVC
A highly recommended combination team.
Brako building was a great company to work with. They were helpful and got the work done in one day to not disrupt our household further. The quality of work was excellent and when it was all completed and the invoice was presented to us, there were no surprises. I didn't realize I had to go buy new door locks and key pads but Steven was very helpful as our previous key pads would not fit the new door.. Anita is knowledgeable and explained the process of the window/ door ordering so we were aware of how long it would take to complete. We are very happy with the work done by Brako and would absolutely use them again!!
