Q: Is heavy glass more expensive?

• <div><p>Heavy glass tends to be more expensive than thin glass because it is stronger and more durable. In most cases, &frac14;-inch-thick glass is ideal for mirrors, and ⅛-inch-thick glass is ideal for residential windows. Heavier glass isn&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: Do services include custom patterns and designs?

• <div><p>Yes, professionals can install decorative or colored glass block patterns for a unique look.</p></div>

Q: Why is glass block so expensive?

• <div><p>Glass block installation can be relatively expensive due to the range of material costs and the labor time to assemble this type of specialty window. The process proceeds slowly as the glass does not absorb moisture from mortar and silicone caulk takes longer to harden, leaving spacers to hold up the structure until the caulk or mortar begins to cure. Plus, if your current windows have structural issues or damage, you&rsquo;ll need to repair them before beginning the project, increasing your bottom line. </p></div>
