"The call to my insurance company was very simple and only took about 10 minutes. The technician who installed my glass was very professional and friendly. They came to replace my windshield at my work that way I did not have to be inconvenienced. I recommend Family Auto Glass to anyone who needs a windshield replaced."

"They showed up when they said they would and texted me when they were close. Had all the equipment to do the job. They even pointed out some windows with cracks that I missed they replaced. The rates were reasonable considering the work involved. They charged close to what one company wanted to charge for the first window .Vision Glass results are great. I checked the line of window glaze they applied (wood windows) nice and straight all the way around. The most difficult I think were the aluminum windows in the breezeway but they took care of them and they look great now. I will recommend to others ."

Regular cleaning with non-abrasive cleaners helps prevent buildup and maintains clarity.

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.

Cons

  • Costly to install

  • Challenging installation

  • Challenging repair

Although glass block windows are made of multiple layers of thick glass, they can still break. If an individual block shatters, it can be removed and replaced, but this is a job for a window repair professional. The project is often complex and may require breaking the block further for removal. Do not attempt to handle it yourself, as the broken glass can be dangerously sharp. A professional will have the necessary tools and expertise to replace the broken glass block quickly and safely. Before hiring, confirm that the repair pro has experience with this specific type of window.

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.

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.
