"This was phase 2 of 3 of my window and door project. I installed another patio door and 2 bathroom windows with privacy glass. Gus had his team replace all the rotted wood and add new aluminum capping on the exterior. The products came in earlier than expected and they were able to install everything well ahead of schedule. Again, I am so pleased my neighbor referred Lifetime to me as Gus was unbelievable to work with."

"The results are really nice, but just took too long to complete, otherwise our project would have been rated "A". The process started in late September 2019 when we were asking for estimates. We really liked working with Teresa and selected Excel for the project in November 2019. We got scheduled for January 6th, 2020 to start a project which was to take 2 to 3 weeks. Roman did the remodel and he was fantastic. Great workmanship and easy to schedule with. While 95% of the project was completed in three weeks, delays with the walk-in shower glass and the linen closet doors pushed that remaining 5% completion out weeks. Covid-19 then added to the delays. The linen closet doors were finally delivered on May 5th, 2020. We are happy with the end result, even after the delays."

"We are finishing our basement, and while we've never had any seepage, we wanted to repair any cracks that were going to be behind the drywall. Both the estimator and the repairman were honest, knowledgeable, respectful of our home and thorough in their work. We had a minor scheduling hiccup that the office immediately addressed, and everyone could not have been nicer."

"Great experience. Came promptly and finished the work (adjust a shower door that was hitting the pane b/c out of whack) in as little time as he could in a totally professional manner, providing a solution for a problem we had had for long and that a number of other glass door repair companies had told us wasn’t solvable. Fantastic service and very nice treatment as well. All around someone you should hire if you have a repair problem of the sort glass and mirror."

"I hired Ultimate Remodelers because they had previously installed the front window of our townhouse. UR were quick to respond and their quote was very reasonable. They were also very patient when working with our HOA who were one day late in approving their proposal. UR courteously honored the original estimate. After instillation, the city inspector failed our inspection as "no one was home" despite me taking the day off to be there (and having heard no attempt to knock). Heather of UR contacted the city to allow me to submit photos of the installations that were then approved. The only problem we had was that the depth of one of our basement block windows wasn't fully accounted for, so it doesn't fully open which was disappointing. Mike, our salesman came to our house to talk over potential solutions and we ultimately decided to take a small but fair rebate. Overall, I would highly recommend Ultimate Remodelers if you're looking to get your windows replaced for a very fair price!"

Glaziers questions, answered by experts

Bathroom mirrors weigh between 6 and 13 pounds, depending on the size. A 16x20-inch mirror weighs 6 pounds, while a 24x36-inch bathroom mirror weighs 12.5 pounds. Large mirrors, such as a 30x40-inch mirror, weigh 46 pounds. When installing or hanging a bathroom mirror, have a neighbor or partner assist you in lifting and holding the mirror in place. A second set of eyes can also help ensure the mirror is centered and level. 

You don’t want to put anything on top of your mirror when you move it. You also want to limit the possibility that something heavy will fall on the glass and shatter it. For this reason, it’s not a good idea to lay a mirror flat in the moving truck.

If you decide to forgo your old windows and upgrade them to modern day technology, there may be some people interested in the old windows. You can try selling them on an online marketplace for around $50 to $100 each (so long as the window wasn’t damaged during the removal). This can also help off set the overall price to replace them.

Cutting glass yourself can be dangerous, as the edges are sharp and can easily cause lacerations if you’re not careful. Working with larger pieces of glass is especially dangerous, as they can be cumbersome and difficult to handle without shattering. If you’re uncomfortable doing the work yourself, you can hire a professional to get the job done safely.

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.
