Get matched with top glass block installation pros in Carpinteria, CA

"Wow. Reliable, affable, a real problem solver. Mike showed up when he said he would, and did a beautiful repair and protective glass install on our double front doors, sidelights and upper windows. He is very genuine and a true pleasure to work with. He listened to us, gave great advice and explained everything in detail. Very impressed."

"It went fine. They removed double sliding patio doors, replaced all wheels on doors and installed new track on bottom. Old track was so bent we could barely move the doors. They now glide easily. At first they were noiseless, but a couple of weeks later they got a little noisy, although they still glide smoothly. This may have been due to pressure put on the door when we later had a safety laminate put on the glass. I wish I'd done it years ago, as the struggle to open & close them was really annoying.
We initially planned to replace the doors, but they're 60 years old, no one makes them any more and it would have cost many thousands of dollars to replace. We're quite happy.

"Great! They arrived within the time they had given us, and were done in 30 minutes. Only complaint was that we found small pieces of glass on the bed and floor in the room where the window was located, in spite of their vacuuming afterward. But job looks good."

"The job was during the first half of March 2019 for a 35 year old, 28 two- and three-story townhouse unit complex in Pasadena, California/trendy Playhouse District. As the current and prior/numerous years condo association president, I have had many experiences with contractors, including roofing, painting, plumbing, landscaping, and Chris Coyle is by far the most competent, reasonable, reliable, cooperative, fair and most professional of all the contractors. I would most highly recommend his services. During the plus two-week installation, Chris as company boss was "on top of job" because actually he himself and his assistant were installing/"doing the heavy lifting" for all of the new windows. This clearly illustrates his commitment/pride in his craftsmanship. Also, he is very knowledgeable about the window product/Milgard because he thought it best for this job to actually remove most of the old window frames, not customary for a/this "retrofit" versus "replacement" window installation. He was willing to do the extra work at no additional cost in order that the new window frames were not wide/distracting but thinner/minimal/open/clean/more open/glass configuration to enhance the overall modernization of the complex. I "gambled" with this new look for improving the complex, and Chris made not only the complex look good but me as president as well. Every- one is thrilled by the windows results, even asking "why didn't 'we' do this earlier?' I and the other homeowners do not hesitate at all in recommending Christopher Coyle and his Alta Sierra Windows company to any other homeowner. Richard, president, Oak Knoll Village homeowner association. (Thanks Chris!)"

"There are always businesses that stand out from the rest, and that describes Foothill Painting very well. After seeing their excellent work on a neighbor's home, as well as other positive reviews on Angie's List we contacted them for a complete repainting of our house, including a detached three car garage and some interior walls and trim. From the very first meeting with Kevin, one of the co-owners, we knew we were in good hands. All their crew members are regular employees, not sub-contractors. One painter told us that he has been with Foothill for eleven years. The estimate was detailed and professional. They not only painted... They also did quite a bit of stucco and window glazing repair. The prep work was meticulous. What we appreciated the most was their attitude that they would do whatever it took to make sure we were satisfied. Too bad so many businesses don't understand the value of that! Also, they were very careful when moving things out of the way and the cleanup was great. We're sure that there are some other painters who would have submitted a lower bid but, as always, you really do get what you pay for. We feel that we chose the best, and they didn't break our bank."

"We initially hired them to do a complete bathroom remodel and also added some other things such as installing recessed lights in one of the bedrooms and den, and replacing some windows in the kitchen and one of the bedrooms. We first met with Shay from Precise Home Builders and we liked the pictures, especially the tile work, and his description of the work. His bid was not the cheapest compared to other companies but it sounded like they knew what they were doing so we hired them. Overall, the project got done but it was a hassle from beginning to end. They initially promised it would take 5 weeks (also written in the contract), but it took 8 weeks instead. Communication was very difficult although Shay was responsive. However each day we would find something that would need to be fixed or redone and had to point it out. For example, if we left it up to them, the door to the bathroom would open directly against the sink, and we would not have a medicine cabinet installed which we really wanted. They wanted to charge extra to demo the door frame just to change the swing direction of the door, so we had someone else do it. We also had bought a medicine cabinet which they told us they could not install recessed because of a pipe in the wall and they didn't tell us that until halfway through the project. After much debate, they finally agreed to surface mount it. They were finally able to install it. The shower niche was also not centered in relation to the window so had to be redone. There were many other small imperfections such as gaps in the paint, gaps in the grout left unfinished, and dry wall that had to be fixed along the way. We felt that many things were not done right the first time, and they had to be go back and fix them. Although the project was finished and the bathroom looks nice, there were still several things that we noticed that had to be fixed. The toilet was not secured to the ground and wobbles back and forth when sitting down. The air vent in the ceiling was found to be loose. Thankfully, they came back and were able to fix everything without any questions. The owner, Moshe, also got involved to address our previously complaints with the experience. I’d say overall the end product and the customer service were satisfactory."

"Granted, the work isn't completely finished, but I wanted to update my review to post how impressed I am. Danny Gold and his crew just completed the tile install phase. They did an extremely complex "wood" tile pattern which looks beautiful in photos and EVEN better in reality. In addition, the bulk of the work and hassles and noise was done remotely while I was out of town. Luis was great an explaining things and even though I wasn't there, I felt everything would be handled with the utmost care and attention to details. Talk about trustworthy!!! Such a gift in a contractor. The tile work cost me a bit more than I expected, but the work was well worth it. They are handling all the extremely annoying inspections (City of Santa Monica slows everything so much!) My shower glass guy was super impressed with the precision of the bathroom. "Like laser crafted" In all, HIGHLY recommend their work!!"

"The owner Jim came to provide us a free estimate and was there within the scheduled time frame provided.  He measured and got back to us with a price.  All the windows and doors are custom ordered to your specification, so don't expect to get an estimate over the phone... let someone come out - it's worth it!  When I called they were able to fit me in the next day which was really nice!  Once we agreed on the scope of services - we had to prioritize and do our order in pieces due to our budget - and Jim and his team were patient with us as we did one job at a time.  Each time we gave a deposit and Jim orders what we commit to - remember these are custom made to order, so we were OK with that.  As soon as the sliding doors were in, his office called to schedule the installation.  Same with the frameless shower door in the master bathroom and the new windows all around the house.  The work was done efficiently and his crew did a great job on cleaning up. His guys work super hard - there's no wondering, what are they doing now moments.  Our windows and doors made a huge mess because we had all the old wood framing pulled off at the same time.  And since we have dogs, we were very particular about the yard clean-up and Jim was very thorough and did not disappoint.  Compared to others, Jim's estimate was very competitive and we felt comfortable with the fact he has been licensed in the desert for so long - he knows his stuff.  The company seems to keep their overhead low and they do not have a storefront, so if you like to touch and feel things before purchasing like I do, ask them for referrals and/or pictures of local jobs.   I'm surprised there are not any reviews here yet as I found they have done so many jobs and have many happy customers willing to have you see his work.  I think probably like myself, many people in the desert don't use Angie's List because many of the contractors here are from out of the area even though they come up as local.  So Cal Sliding Door is truly local with an office in Palm Desert.  We highly recommend So Cal Sliding Door for any of your door & window needs."
