Cayuga is a small historic village and county seat of Haldimand County, situated along the Grand River. The community features the stately Haldimand County Courthouse, heritage homes from the 1800s, and a traditional village character that reflects its long history as a centre of local government and river commerce.
Cayuga's position along the Grand River in southern Haldimand County brings cold winters with river valley dampness and temperatures dropping below -15C, while the flat terrain allows winter winds to sweep through unimpeded.
Cayuga's heritage homes near the courthouse and along the Grand River have original windows that are thermally inadequate for modern comfort. The river's dampness accelerates window deterioration, and cold Haldimand County winters demand modern triple-pane glazing to maintain warmth and protect these historic properties.

Our heritage home near the courthouse in Cayuga had windows from the 1800s that were charming but useless against the Grand River cold. Panes made custom heritage windows with modern triple-pane glass. Our home is finally warm. — Phyllis O., Cayuga Village
