"I don't have a ladder to reach my second story gutters, and dirt had built up in them to the point of weeds beginning to grow in them.  I had been delaying this project, but saw Lake View's truck drive by yesterday (with "GUTTER CLEANING") written on the side and decided to give them a call.  
I spoke to someone in their office at about 8:00 a.m. and was told that for a two story house, gutter cleaning would cost $120, not including a $15 discount for first time customers.  So I provided my address and was told they'd finish the job "today or tomorrow."  
Sure enough, by the time I was home from work that day, the job was completed and an invoice was in my door.

"The measuring guys bent my screen and measured and left. The gentleman that came to install the glass fixed the screen, installed the replacement glass were extremely professional. So far the glass is working great without the whole unit replacement quote from another company of $$5000. I couldn’t be happier. I will hire again."

"I worked initially with Mike B at the Naperville showroom and looked at several models of windows.
A few days later, Mike G came to the house to take measurements and provided an initial estimate.
I went back to the showroom to take a closer look at the models and asked a few more questions.
I scheduled an meeting with Mike G to change a few items on the estimate and provided the downpayment.
I was contacted about a month later to bring in (to the Burr Ridge main office) the paint our townhome association requires on exterior trim.
A little over a week later I was contacted to schedule the installation date.
The installation was subcontracted to MVR Construction Group Inc (possibly because of the glass block windows not being one of Next's normally installed items). 
The installation took 3 days and involved removal of the 40+ year old windows/doors, full frame replacement, updated insulation, and replacement wood trim to meet association specifications. (No metal trim allowed)
Neighbors who observed the installation process commented about the thoroughness of the installation process and the cleanup that was done every day.

"Ronnie and his crew were fantastic. They were at my house within hours after I called. Ronnie explained exactly what needed to be done. The shattered glass was cleaned up and the replacement glass was ordered. When the new glass came in an appointment was scheduled and he came out to put it in the door and correct the four casement windows as I had requested. All work was spot on. I highly recommend LDS."

"Vince's foreman walked through the job's scope and his crew quickly and efficiently trenched the basement floor on the first day.  There was a miscommunication about the drain tile being a continuous circuit and the crew readily fixed the problem.  Day two was laying drain tile, weeping the cinder block and covering tile with concrete.  Initially the cinder block was not drilled twice- once through each core for weeping water- but after speaking with the foreman, he readily drilled each core. 
The crew outside paid attention to my concern that the discharge was in an aesthetically pleasing location and did a good job at preserving the lawn.  They were also kind to my garden.  With the plants they had to dig up, they did leave a nice root ball, but they did not replant the plants.  I did not realize this and one did die.
Per Vince's suggestion, our front gutter which handles the watershed for half of our house was tied into the drain tile discharge pipe.  This corrected an erosion problem plus removed more water from near our foundation. The gutter did end up at a slightly stressed angle but Vince said he would send someone by when they are next in the area and that it would be easy to correct.
Vince did recommend a basic pump back up and a more expensive NexPump back up.  We went with the more expensive Nexxt and love it.  Also the sump itself is wonderfully quiet.
After the job was completed, we did notice damp spots on the cinder block.  Vince and his warranty guy did come out and evaluate the problem.  His warranty guy reopened some weep holes which seemed blocked with silt plus caulked the plastic cove molding.  I appreciate Vince being willing to personally come back and check out his crew's work.
Reliable Basement's price was $2,000 lower than my second choice for a water proofing company.  The value for the dollar was excellent, but I did have to watch that the job was done the way we wanted.  Communication was somewhat hard since the foreman was not completely fluent in English.  However, the crew was polite, and more that willing to do what we asked.

"For the past 3 weeks I have had 1 window per week broken in my condo building by neighborhood troublemakers.  Each time I called Steve at Busy Bee in the middle of the night and he sent his workers out to board up the broken windows.  They arrived every time within 1 hour of my call.  Always very professional and competent in their work, they did some little extras like sweeping up small pieces of glass from the sidewalk before leaving.  I hope I won't have to keep having windows boarded up, but if I do, I am confident that Busy Bee will be there to protect the security of my home.

Estimator came right away and I didn't need to be home - everything was laid out in estimate!  Estimator also noticed how a previous small job had been done incorrectly. There is never answering machine and you always talk to a person.  We had a lot of water issues and have none now.  They matched our mortar and did a great job. Looks excellent.

I called this spring about an issue and was immediately called back by the foreman who was on our job.  Issue resolved immediately.

Would recommend Arrow to all.

Glass Block questions, answered by experts

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

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

Glass block windows typically last for 15 to 30 years, which is slightly less than the 20- to 50-year lifespan of standard windows. You can extend their life by resealing them every few years. Professional installation is also key to ensuring the windows are placed correctly and will function properly for years to come. A professional installer will have the necessary skills, tools, and knowledge to install these features and can identify potential issues like damaged frames or cramped areas during a consultation.

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

Their thickness depends on application, but most glass walls are typically 3/8 to 3/4 of an inch thick. Although it’s not as common, single panes of glass can also be 1 inch thick.
