"The crew members were very nice. They came on time. Everything went well till they found mold behind our shower stall then everything go down the drain. Originally, they told us the whole job only took one week and we took 2 days to fixed the mold problem. At the end of the first week, they only did 1/10 of the job. They were very behind! And then they told us that they have a very tight schedule so they could only come whenever they were available--that's like one or two days a week and the worst was they only let us know the date like couple days ahead of time. It took them THREE months to finished our bathroom! We had paid for diamond fusion coating on the shower stall glass but they forgot to put that in the contract. Well, they did do a good job as our bathroom look great!"

"Made an appt. with Castle Rep, James, for 17 windows and vinyl siding. He spent 1 hour talking about how great his company and windows are before finally getting down to the issue. We were told that CASTLE makes and services their own window, with all the best technology and technicians available. The price per window for energy efficient came out to over $1,200 per double-hung window! And since they make their own products, we could not find a way to compare quality and price with other manufacturers. But his per-window price exceeds the average price of $500-700 by A LOT! When we balked, he made a call to his "manager" to see if we qualified for a "special promotional" discount. If we were to commit right there on the spot, we would get an additional 10% off! Still way to high. We said we would think about it (he got sad and snippy), and that we wanted to hear about the vinyl siding quote before we made any decisions. He told us he could not give us a siding quote until his company did an "eagle view" measurement, which would require another appointment! We had no intention of sitting through ANOTHER high-pressure appointment. High pressure, long-drawn out presentation and he would not leave us with anything in writing! No brochures, prices, nothing! He refused to put anything in writing and we could not have a break down of labor and costs. I even asked him if I could have a copyhh of the window warranty and he said "only if you purchase right now." And they did not come prepared with references or previous job locations! When we further researched the company, we found they did make very excellent products, but the #1 complaint was by far that they did not honor their lifetime warranty and that customer service was horrible. In the end, we chose not to do business.."

"They had very good availability. They came and did everything as fast as they could. It was very convenient that way. The bad would be that they painted the window seal white. It had previously been a dark color, and I am not sure if they primed it good enough. You can still see the dark color through it. If we used them again we would go over our specifications a little more carefully before hand."

"I have a Cape cod Style house that before we bought it an old chimney had been torn down and a very bad patch job was done. They ground it down, blended it in, and patched some holes around the windows in the basement, and repaired concrete on concrete block walls for walk out steps from basement. They painted the stucco around the basement. They had to get behind the bushes and they took their time and did a very good job and were very thorough."

"Once we got in touch with each other (my emails were going to spam), things fell into place pretty quickly.  He sent an estimate, which looked good, and started on the work quickly in order to complete it before we moved into the house.
The popcorn ceiling removal was a hot, demanding job in the summer.  What made it more difficult was the fact that under the popcorn, a lot of the ceiling had not been taped or sealed.  Lots of finishing and repairs were required before they could prime and paint it.  They repaired nail pops as well.
The underlayment, flooring and trim went in afterwards.  All of it looks terrific and very professional.  The stairs look great as well, as the carpenter was very detail-oriented.  
Jim and his crew are really nice people and very helpful.  I will be hiring them again to put in windows and paint inside.  I highly respect his work."

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 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’ll need to repair them before beginning the project, increasing your bottom line. 

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

Most installations take 1-3 days, depending on the number of blocks and customization requirements.

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.
