"I had used Roofs by Rodger before and they came same day after 1 phone call and did a good job. This time it was totally different. My first phone call I left a message, no one ever called me back. My second phone call a spoke with a person who said someone would call me back about coming to do an estimate. No one ever called me back. After my third call someone came and did an estimate that same day, now a week after my first call. The estimate was left on my door and I was told I had to sign and mail it back. I couldn't approve the estimate over the phone. So I mailed it, and another weeks goes by without hearing from them. I call again and finally someone comes and fixes the roof. But they use light grey shingles on my dark grey roof. It's hard for me to believe they could not do a better color match. In the end the roof got fixed but I'm not very happy about the process or the end result."

Glass Block Windows questions, answered by experts

Glass block windows aren’t fire hazards; fire-rated glass block windows can increase your home’s fire safety. Modern glass blocks are made with materials that can resist high temperatures and prevent fire spread. Most offer a 45-minute fire rating, while some increase it to two hours. Compared to the typical 20 to 90 minute rating for a double-pane window, glass block can increase your home’s safety in the event of a fire.

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.

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.

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.

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
