Q: Do glass block windows come in different patterns and textures?

• <div><p>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.</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>

Q: Can you see through glass block windows at night?

• <div><p>You can still see vaguely into some types of glass block windows at night. Although there won&rsquo;t be clear definitions, passersby may still see shapes, shadows, and movement through the glass. If you want complete privacy, consider installing diamond glass block windows rather than the typical clear or wavy glass blocks.</p></div>

Q: Are glass block windows a fire hazard?

• <div><p>Glass block windows aren&rsquo;t fire hazards; fire-rated glass block windows can increase your home&rsquo;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&rsquo;s safety in the event of a fire.</p></div>

They guys worked very hard and stayed late to finish in one day. A stained glass window was broken but they replaced it with a perfect match. Good company.
