"We had lanai windows that had fogged due to gas leak. Ricky came out and took measurements and had no window pains made, and installs the new windows in a week.Ricky did a fantastic job installing the windows, and was very professional. I would highly recommend him for any window job you have and definitely will use him again in the future."

"Duane did a great job in enclosing our patio. We had some irregularities to our cement area and beams and Duane was able to adjust and make sure the enclosure fit really well. It took a bit longer since he was so busy but the results were worth the wait. Will definitely use him for future house issues!"

Glass Block questions, answered by experts

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.

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

Yes, many professionals provide custom-cut glass replacements for enclosures that require precise sizing.

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

Heavy glass tends to be more expensive than thin glass because it is stronger and more durable. In most cases, ¼-inch-thick glass is ideal for mirrors, and ⅛-inch-thick glass is ideal for residential windows. Heavier glass isn’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.
