Tillsonburg is a thriving town in the tobacco and agricultural heartland of southwestern Ontario, immortalized in a famous Stompin' Tom Connors song. The community features a charming downtown along Broadway, historic homes from its prosperous tobacco era, and a welcoming atmosphere that attracts retirees and young families alike.
Tillsonburg's position in the agricultural heartland of Norfolk and Oxford counties experiences cold southwestern Ontario winters with temperatures regularly falling below -20C and persistent winds across the flat farmland.
Tillsonburg's older homes from the tobacco boom era of the early-to-mid 1900s often retain original windows that are well past their service life. The region's cold winters and exposure to flat-land winds make triple-pane window upgrades one of the most cost-effective improvements homeowners can make.

Our brick home near Lake Lisgar in Tillsonburg had windows from the 1940s. Panes replaced every one with modern triple-pane units and the change is incredible. Our home is warm, quiet, and our heating costs have plummeted. — Dorothy P., Lake Lisgar
