"Sales man sold us on a product the company did not have. When windows were installed we lost the size of the glass for larger frames, which we specifically DID NOT want as we have big windows facing a wooded backyard. We specifically told the sales man we wants MORE glass and we got less. The sales man also told us that we would be able to paint the outside of the WHITE frames to match our home. Found out that that wasn't true either as you would have to properly "prime" the frame with a solution that would have essentially melted the plastic so the paint could property adhere to it. Over all completely disgusted with the company. The ONLY reason giving 3 stars is because their installers are great and work hard. Otherwise, I'd give them zero stars and I not only wouldn't refer customers to them but I would make sure those I know do NOT use this company."

"We had our windows installed last year. Before I rated them I wanted to see how they performed over one of the northern Wisconsin winters. Made it thru the winter in great shape. I couldn't be more pleased with the 12 new windows that we had installed. I would gladly recommend them to anyone interested in a great rugged reliable and well insulated window, I think their guarantee is very good but I don't think I will have to use it. Again. I am very please. Fine window and find company."
"It took a while to get them to come but they had a very reasonable price for the original roof and did a very neat job. He left everything well and I have no complaints. They responded to my calls. The owner came himself and went up on the roof for the changes. They didn't charge me anything."
"At this time windows are on order. So far we are very happy with the process. We really like the idea of lifetime guarantee . Everyone has been very good at giving us their time explaining the process."

All of the things you use to help you get clean can leave your shower door looking dirty. Water can leave mineral deposits as well as unsightly spots when drops of water dry on the glass. Soap and shampoo can cause build-up and residue that leaves a layer of soap scum in your shower, which then attracts dirt. Mold and mildew can also contribute to dirty shower doors; these fast-growing organisms thrive in areas with poor air circulation, damp conditions, and residue from things like soap and shampoo.
Clean regularly with glass cleaner and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive materials to prevent scratches.
Yes, you can resilver old mirrors without any issues, and in many cases, it’s is the only way to maintain and preserve old, antique mirrors. Resilvering involves stripping the old silver off of the mirror, replacing the silver, and adding a protective backing to the glass. The process costs around $15 per square foot of glass, making it a relatively inexpensive solution for making older mirrors functional again. You can buy a DIY resilvering kit, but we strongly recommend hiring a professional to avoid additional damage and mistakes.
The easiest way for DIYers to smooth the edges of cut glass is to use sandpaper. Wearing protective gloves, gently sand the sharp edges smooth using low-grit sandpaper and working up to high-grit sandpaper. You can also use a multitool with a rotating sandpaper cylinder to make quicker work of the project.
Yes, it is possible to repair a damaged or cracked mirror, but whether you should do it yourself depends on the extent of the damage. For minor issues like small chips, cracks, and scratches, you can use a DIY approach. Resin-based repair kits can fix minor cracks, while scratches can often be removed with metal polish, nail polish, baking soda, or a glass polisher. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the best results.
However, for more significant damage, DIY repair is not recommended. Repairing and resilvering mirrors is a delicate process that can involve caustic chemicals and requires a high level of precision. The materials for a DIY attempt can cost over $100, which may not be a significant saving compared to hiring a professional. Since a failed attempt could result in more damage and higher repair costs, it is often better to hire a mirror repair expert from the start, especially for large, valuable, or extensively damaged mirrors.
