There are two facets to Ridley‘s business: the supply only segment for new home construction, addiâ€" tions, or the doâ€"itâ€"yourselfers; and the total installation and warranty segment for the homeowners who want to replace windows, doors, create new bay windows, change a window into a patio door, add moldings etc. The company has an extensive product line and manages its own installation crews. This approach allows Ridley to retain control and total responsibility for the job. Windows and doors have a tremendous influence on the archiâ€" tectural appeal of a home. When selecting these products, there are numerous aspects to be considered such as the architectural integrity of the structure, the curb appeal, the lifestyle expectations, as well as, overall proportion (width to height), coordination with others on the same face, glass content proporâ€" tion to room size and geographic onientation. (Continued from page 1) to be a customer‘s aidâ€"to let them see and touch the product in appliâ€" cations they are buying. These products are installed throughout the complex. It helps the customer envision the product in their own home. Advance tickets are $10 or $12 at the door and are available in Oakville at The Added Touch, 132 Trafalgar Rd. and Walker‘s Chocolates at 1011 Upper Middle Rd. As an example, let‘s take the architectural integrity of the strucâ€" ture. The sales representative helps in the design process to maintain the integrity of the home‘s appearâ€" ance. The selected products should look as if they were a part of the original structure. If the window concept looks like a new style in an old home: the character of the concept looks like a new old home; the charac home is disturbed and it common in Victorian decor, would tend to close in the walls, making the room look smaller. The traditional marble fireplace is enhanced by a handsome Victorian mirror, while the classic leather arm chair, contemporary leather sofa and acrylic tables, add an eclectic look to the room. The "Brebeuf Red" is from Para‘s Canadian Heritage Colors collection which includes 80 interiâ€" or and 34 exterior colors. The full range of Para paints is available through independent paint dealers across the country.

The same is true of a frame that looks too heavy for the size of the openings. The appeal to a new home buyer could actually lessen and cost of the renovation might not improve the saleability of the home. but actually lessen it. home, but actually lessen it. The measure of a good replaceâ€" ment is that it doesn‘t look like one; the measure of a good design is cohesiveness; the measure of a good addition is integration with the parent structure. However, all these facets must satisfy the cusâ€" tomer‘s expectations. All windows and doors are not created equal. Most customers are aware of this so now it becomes a matter of wise choices. Many homeowners today know the basics of what they want to achieve but find very little help available to guide them in achieving it. Ridley‘s sales approach is to design and then sell. But before they design, the sales rep. must first ask questions. He then listens to those issues that are important to the homeowner. Then the sales rep. will help the consumer select a product to fill those needs. The wide product range allows the sales. rep. to be creative in his sales. rep. to be creative in his design approach. Any technology is available. For example, Ridley offers two wood window lines, as well as, aluminum or vinyl.

Our customers are more selective. They know what needs livin maintenance, stainability and budâ€" get. Our sales staff are trained to listen to the customer‘s needs first and then give them the options and fill those needs. Ridley has another approach that customers may also appreciate. If they have selected Ridley‘s installaâ€" tion option, we send out an installaâ€" tion manager who measures the product and dictates the detailing to be ordered. He will, also, review the contract with the homeowner and interface with the actual instalâ€" lation. In this way, Ridley mainâ€" tains control of the whole job and Ridley guarantees both the product and the workmanship for five The trend in the construction industry is toward maintenance free products. Architectural moldings have now reached this technologiâ€" cal stage. Ridley‘s moldings are made of a high density polymer. Unlike wood, they will not rot, warp, or swell. To the human eye, you cannot tell the difference. The interior moldings are as intricate as a plaster moldings. but are much vears warp, or swell. To the human eye, you cannot tell the difference.
