"From the moment of our first appointment to the last window being installed, they never missed a beat. I had not idea, what an improvement it made to my home. They trimmed out everything perfectly, they look beautiful and the home has not used a heater or air sine they have been installed. We are thrilled with these windows and the service. Thank you so much"
"Michael loves glass and finds beauty in its many incarnations. He created an exquisite front door piece for my house 9 years ago. All that door has done is look gorgeous. Haven't had a lick of trouble with it. And, Michael repaired an old glass tile for me too -- at cost even -- because he appreciated it as much as I do. The company also made glass inserts for cabinet doors which are lovely - more banal than the dramatic entrance but equally trouble free. I would hire them again in a heart beat."
"Although this is my sister's home I have had good experiences with Angie's List so I researched and contacted 3 businesses that specialize in windows. I knew the cost would be more expensive but I wanted a company that built their own and had an established history. The decision was made to go with Brothers Home Improvement in big part because the Sales Rep, Curtis Hodding, worked so hard at explaining in detail the product, history of the company and the state requirements necessary to do business and guarantee their product. A good price was negotiated to compete with the other offers received. It was not the least expensive but the quality is outstanding, plus there is a fair lifetime guarantee. The meeting with Curtis took place 9/22/10 and the work was completed within 8 hours on 12/6/10. Depending on the order it can take 6-8 weeks to schedule installation. Communication with company representatives was easy and response timely. My sister wanted to add her input which is the following. "This is to let you know that I had recently had new Brother?s Windows installed in my home (Dec.6th.) and could not have been more pleased not only with the quality of the windows, but the quality of work done by the 3 gentlemen that installed them. Amir (I do hope that is the correct spelling of his name), Josh, and Brandon. They were on time, and were very prompt in starting their work. Their teamwork was extraordinary. What was also impressive was the great cleanup after the installations were finished, I couldn?t even find a wayward nail! Another person that impressed me was Kelly at the Sacramento office. She was very courteous, and took her time to make sure that she answered any questions I had regarding the time of appointment, and concerns I had regarding the possibility of rain. When you have people working for you such as these, I do hope you will recognize their contributions to the reputation of Brothers." There was some follow-up work that was scheduled for January. It was minor. A piece of tile was replaced in the bathroom when the original was accidently cracked, and the plastic lock on the screen door was not fitting properly so that was replaced too. When my sister called to inquire she was told that Brandon had reported it so it was in the system. That work was done as promised. My sister and her family are so impressed by the difference in outside noise and the heat maintained in the home. This was a sound investment. In following I took advantage of the half price subsrciption to Angie's List offered in December as an extra gift for my sister."
"Kyle Beym Home Improvement exceed all expectations! We hired KBHI to remove a very outdated looking wall attached to our fireplace, move the gas line, remove some outdated bricks in front of the fireplace and propose a solution for removal of the outdated wood. Kyle and his team were incredibly professional, clean and responsive. As an added bonus, he found the perfect compliment brick to replace the outdated wood that was wrapped around the fireplace. During the process, our flooring installers were behind and we needed Kyle's team to postpone a day or two--he did it without any issue and was right back to work instantly when the flooring people finished. His was amazing, kind, accommodating and very cost-effective. A+++ across the board and a true professional in everything he does. Thank you, Kyle! You made our remodel of our home that much more exceptional"
"Raul did the most perfect, artistic repair of the stained glass window in the door of our entry way. I made the window 40 years ago, in great detail in a stained glass class that I took. It was my second window and very challenging with beautiful colored antique glass with designs of ribbons weaving through flowers. My son accidentally cracked a piece of glass many years ago. I was afraid to have someone attempt to fix it because I thought it would be impossible. Raul's work was magnificent!!! He was able to match the different glass pieces that had broken over time. I couldn't be happier, just wish I would have called him years ago. Raul has my very highest recommendation. We are super delighted with the results."
"Gabriel installed 3 cabinets at my home. He was a perfectionist, quick and clean. Very friendly and warm. I look forward to working with him again on my next project."
"Great work. Everything was accomplished in the time frame provided. Price and quality very good. Installation crew went out of their way to ensure the mirror was spotless before they left."
Glass has one of the longest lifespans of any fencing materials, lasting anywhere from 10 to 30 years on average. Just how long your glass fence lasts depends on several factors, including how well you maintain your fence, the climate, and the type of glass you use.
If you live somewhere with severe weather like hail, tornadoes, or hurricanes, expect your glass to have a shorter lifespan. Pool glass is one of the thickest tempered glass materials and may last longer than other options—especially compared to laminated glass.
White vinegar, water, and baking soda create a natural cleaning solution that is highly effective against brown stains on the oven door. Mix one cup of baking soda, one-fourth cup of water, and one teaspoon of vinegar into a paste. Spread it evenly onto the oven glass and let it sit for 15 to 20 minutes. Then, scrape the mixture off with a plastic spatula. Wipe the glass with white vinegar to remove any remaining baking soda.
There’s no exact formula to calculate the cost of your mirror, but a few guidelines will help you estimate the price tag you can expect. The bigger the mirror, the higher the cost—and the same goes for thickness. Customizations will largely depend on the labor required, so think about how long your design will take and multiply that by your contractor’s hourly rate.
Installation typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on the mirror size and mounting requirements.
Contrary to popular belief, wavy glass in older homes isn't caused by warping. The blowing technique used to create windows in homes dating back to the 1700s, 1800s, and early 1900s left behind small bubbles that create a wavy effect. If a glass window is functional, there's no need to consider wavy glass damaged. In fact, many homeowners prefer the old charm of wavy glass.
