"Excellent customer service! Prompt response to my request & very very fast completion of project. I only wish the replacement piece was a closer color match to the original piece, but I think the color chosen is very complementary."

"Queen City Glass block replaced our two pane glass basement windows with vented glass block windows. Every interaction during installation was warm and professional. The basement is now more secure, and will have cross ventilation.

"Ordering and purchasing windows from Zen is perhaps the easiest and most satisfying purchase experience I have ever had, especially when it comes to home maintenance. I received a quotation within minutes of requesting one. Payment is made when the job is completed. Someone came out to measure and the windows were installed in one day. I purchased half of my windows in 2016 and the other half in 2017. Perhaps the best aspect of Zen window purchasing is that it is all online, but a quick phone call away if needed. Prices were considerably more reasonable than the other two companies I considered using. Furthermore, Dan Wolt, the owner took immediate action on any questions/concerns and exhibited such integrity in business practice! Case in point, when I was quoted a lower price (through no fault of his) he insisted that he give me the price quoted because of his business ethics. Truly, I would recommend Zen Windows to any person looking for high quality windows, NO sales rep. visitations and personal service. I have been very happy with my triple pane windows and resulting reduction in utility bills."

"JFK provided helpful advice on choosing kind of windows and type of glass, etc. This company was not inexpensive, but we think it was very good quality. Work was done in a timely way and they did not make a mess. We are very happy with our new windows."

"I called an received an initial quote over the phone.  Upon receiving the quote, I arranged a time for a representative to come out to my house to verify measurements and to provide me with an official quote.  The representative did not show up due to "being tied up in traffic."  I re-scheduled the appointment for the very next day and the representative did not show up nor did he call.  The next day I left a message with the company requesting that they give me a call to re-schedule the appointment.  The company did not return my call.

Glass Block questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Glass block mortar is the best choice for glass block window units. It is specifically formulated for glass block window installation. Glass block mortar is usually a mixture of Portland cement, sand, and special chemicals. It is a white mortar that is applicable inside and outside your home. Do not use regular tile mortar because it may not have the binding strength and flexibility required for glass block windows.

Glass walls are more expensive overall than their brick or drywall counterparts. However, if you need walls for a building with more than two or three stories, glass walls are the more budget-friendly option.

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.
