"We replaced the windows in our 1933 home through the services of MadCity Windows. From the initial contact with their sales representative to final installation, the company provided top notch professional work. With the draft from the old windows and the cold of the glass, we are already saving on our energy bills. Our house had old, large windows, so they had to be custom made. As an industrial designer and interior designer, we find our windows to be of excellent quality."

"From start to finish, Durante service was outstanding. They tested for lead paint (old house), found it, and took care of disposing of everything (for an additional charge). I was thoroughly impressed with how efficient and speedy their work was, and they showed up exactly when they said they'd be done, and didn't waste any time finishing the job. Workmanship was excellent, they cleaned up every day of the job (3 days), and their whole crew was very conscious of keeping the house clean, despite how much tearout was required. The original salesman also followed up to make sure we were satisfied with the windows. The windows themselves were a premium grade choice, more expensive than their standard by a small amount. After two years of ownership now, I'm impressed with how tight and sealed they are. No pane failures, and they are all so very easy to open top or bottom. Low-E glass is also excellent. The exterior trim was covered with aluminum, and they did an excellent job fitting each piece in place, and ensuring the flashing was properly installed. They also foam-filled the sash weight cavities to prevent air leakage. Overall, I will be using them again. "

Most bathroom mirrors last 10 to 15 years with regular maintenance. The actual lifespan is determined by the quality of the mirror, its materials, the way it was hung, and the overall ventilation and humidity level in your bathroom. Meanwhile, LED bathroom mirrors tend to have a lifespan of 30,000 to 50,000 hours.
Never put glass in the garbage disposal. It can damage your disposal or eject shards of glass out of the disposal and cause injury. If you get broken glass in your garbage disposal, turn it off and cut the power from the breaker, use a tool like pliers or tongs to remove the glass, and use a wet-dry vacuum to remove the remaining glass pieces. If you can’t access the disposal safely, call a garbage disposal repair pro.
For small cracks, glass-bonding glue that can be pressed into cracks may be able to save a broken mirror. If a corner of a mirror has been chipped, you may be able to conceal the fact by adding a border or frame to the mirror. Deeper cracks and chips should be addressed by a glass-restoration professional if you're trying to preserve an antique or heirloom mirror.
The average mirror has a lifespan of 10 to 15 years. After that, the coating begins to deteriorate, losing its reflective properties. Acrylic mirrors have a slightly shorter lifespan of seven to 10 years. Higher-quality acrylic sheets with UV-resistant properties have lifespans similar to those of your average mirror. By maintaining your mirrors and keeping them out of direct sunlight when not in use, you can extend their lifespan. Some mirrors can last for decades.
Heavy glass tends to be more expensive than thin glass because it is stronger and more durable. In most cases, ¼-inch-thick glass is ideal for mirrors, and ⅛-inch-thick glass is ideal for residential windows. Heavier glass isn’t always necessary, and can be more challenging to hang or install. Work with a local window installation pro for replacement or new construction windows.
