We’re called Norc Windows and Doors, we design and manufacture custom vinyl and laminated windows and doors, providing high-quality residential products for home renovations and new construction.
What made you want to do this work?
I’ve always had a passion for craftsmanship and working with my hands. After years of working with window manufacturers, I realized there was a real need for trustworthy, local experts who could provide both great products and honest service. That’s when NORC was born.
What problem did you want to solve with the business?
We wanted to offer a better experience — one that is transparent, quality, and a personal touch. We aim to offer energy-efficient, accurate, and aesthetically pleasing windows and doors that meet and exceed Canadian standards for performance and durability.

What is the best part about what you do? What is the worst part?
The best part is seeing the transformation of a home and hearing how happy our clients are after a job well done. The worst part? Probably working through a Canadian winter — those -30 installs are no joke!
What is your favourite joke about your own profession?
I told my friend I work in door manufacturing.
He said, “Sounds boring.”
I replied, “Yeah, it has its ups and downs… mostly hinges though.”
