"Excellent…..Excellent……Excellent. We have used Apex on four different jobs in the last five months. After they replaced three bay windows, we tried them on realigning two heavy sliding windows that would not shut properly because the house had sunk over the last 100 years. We had to stuff insulation into the one inch cracks each winter to keep the cold out. Then we fixed two windows with seals broken so that they fogged up. Lastly some wooden framing had rotted out in two windows over the years; they were repaired as good as new. The price quotes were fair; the work was done on schedule; and my wife and I are delighted that our home windows now sparkle."

"Next Door and Window easily exceeded my expectations. We had a front door and sidelight replacement and a Bay window replacement. The removal was done with great care and the new installation was seamless. Both the window and door crew's were neat, speedy and obviously experienced. I would highly recommend them."

"A lot more to discuss about this than I would like. Drain tile construction seems fine, which is the most important part of this project by far! We will learn more upon a rainy season in the fall or spring. Demo was not as clean as we would have liked. We have steel studs in basement, so they pushed out walls to put drains to window wells behind electrical conduit for outlets. This ripped the drywall off of studs and pulled framing away from windows. We had to rerun electricity around the new drains and do some repairs because of this. If we had wood studs, we do not think that they would not have been able to cause as much damage, so this shortcut cost us some work. There is also a small dent in our ceiling on the main floor from when they were carrying materials. Dust was everywhere. They left the door to the basement open during demo and construction so dust was all over our main floor. Also, they mixed the concrete in our garage, so everything we move out of the basement to avoid dust is now covered in concrete dust. This is very difficult to remove since mixing with water will form more concrete. They asked what we need from them to fix this, but we do not see a good solution other than wiping down each individual item ourselves. It's a lot of work we spent a lot of time trying to avoid by following Alex's recommendations. There was a miscommunication and Reliable Basements did not put the new sump pump in, plus the check valves were put 2 inches from the lid of the sump pit leaving the pit inaccessible to us. After several attempts at communicating with them, they responded and replaced it and fixed the check valve placement in a timely manner. They missed a crack in the foundation, but were quick to come out and fill it for the same price they offered during the drain tile installation."

"Fantastic! Arrived on time, work performed efficiently and perfect. We already notice the huge difference in the temperatures on that side of the house so we know that our AC costs will be going down. We're planning to do the 2nd floor windows soon."

"Estimator Cathy came on time, as scheduled, discussed work to be done, made some suggestions and wrote up a detailed Scope of Work and contract, sending it promptly. Unfortunately, was not able to complete work before Winter, but as soon as the weather improved, was put on the job board and the work scheduled. Office called to reconfirm date of work and time. Team arrived on time with foreman on scheduled day. Hooked up hoses to external water lines and covered plantings, grass, and sidewalk around house. Excellent work with team walking around the house and catching all cracks, openings and areas where mortar had loosened from brickwork. Chimney and front limestone was drilled out, as was the mortar under all window sills and replaced. The resulting work was neat, matched the existing mortar, so now a week later, you cannot tell where the tuck pointing was done. I've already recommended Arrow to colleagues who were looking for a professional and careful tuck pointer. Highly recommended. Cheerfully applied the Angie's List discount which had been missed in the billing process."

Glass Block Windows questions, answered by experts

Options include tempered, laminated, and tinted glass for various needs.

DIY is possible for small projects, but professional installation ensures proper sealing, structural integrity, and a precise finish.

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.

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.

Luckily, glass block windows need minimal maintenance. Other than regular cleaning, the only maintenance involved in having a glass block window is inspecting for cracks every year and applying sealer to the mortar joints if the blocks are set in masonry mortar. Glass block windows hold up well against wind and moisture better than traditional windows and are not prone to rot.
