"My husband and I purchased the house in last August and needed to get windows tinted to block the direct sunlight since there was no second floor above the living room and half the windows were placed very high without any window coverings.  We met with a few people for free estimates and decided to go with Robert of Tint San Diego since his estimate was in our price range and he seemed knowledgeable about his trade.  Robert and his assistant arrived on time on the day of installation and started prep for the job.  Since there was no window covering on most of the windows, it was easy for them to install the films.  They efficiently worked and finished the job in about four hours.  He installed tint films on three small windows for free, and there was no charge for removing existing films.  My husband and I are very pleased of their work and will hire them again if we need to tint more windows in the future.

Palm Construction gave me competitive price and they were available in very acceptable time and that was very important to me. Mike and his team did accurate and high quality job, there were no issues and they finished within their promised time. My new roof looks fantastic, I am completely satisfied with final product and overall experience to work with Palm Construction is excellent! I strongly recommend them!"

"The agent, John, was very personable and professional.  The window for my appointment for set  for 1-3pm, and at 2:30 John called to inform me he was in traffic and apologized for potentially being late.  He arrived before 3pm, and I really appreciated his heads up. 
I am still in the process of investigating my options and getting quotes for the job of replacing/fixing the sewer line, as it is a very expensive project, however, Edrooter's price was very competitive, and if I decide to replace the sewer line, I will definitely hire them to do the job.

Glass Block Windows questions, answered by experts

Glass walls are more expensive overall than their brick or drywall counterparts. However, if you need walls for a building with more than two or three stories, glass walls are the more budget-friendly option.

Glass block mortar is the best choice for glass block window units. It is specifically formulated for glass block window installation. Glass block mortar is usually a mixture of Portland cement, sand, and special chemicals. It is a white mortar that is applicable inside and outside your home. Do not use regular tile mortar because it may not have the binding strength and flexibility required for glass block windows.

Glass block windows aren’t fire hazards; fire-rated glass block windows can increase your home’s fire safety. Modern glass blocks are made with materials that can resist high temperatures and prevent fire spread. Most offer a 45-minute fire rating, while some increase it to two hours. Compared to the typical 20 to 90 minute rating for a double-pane window, glass block can increase your home’s safety in the event of a fire.

Installing glass block windows has benefits and disadvantages, as with most materials. The pros and cons can vary depending on the type of glass block and the window location.

Pros

  • Maintains privacy while letting light into the bathroom

  • Energy efficient

  • Sealed to prevent drafts

  • Aesthetically pleasing

  • Strong and secure

Cons

  • Costly to install

  • Challenging installation

  • Challenging repair

Glass block windows come in various patterns and styles that offer privacy and unique aesthetics. Frosted or textured glass diffuses light and enhances privacy. Wave-pattern glass blocks imitate ocean waves with flowing lines. Ice-glass blocks resemble cracked ice. Fluted glass blocks feature parallel vertical grooves, adding texture and depth. Clear glass blocks, similar to glass Coke bottles, offer transparency with some distortion and may have smooth surfaces or subtle textures, adding visual interest.
