"Initial response was quick, estimate was professional, the higher end of the estimates I got, but they were not a bunch of kids just starting out, and were quite professional. Their estimate came with a copy of their insurance and contractor license, which was very impressive. It took awhile to get the work started, and I felt they could have stayed in touch a bit better. But once the work started it went quickly, professional, everyone knew what they were doing. We recently had other work done here, and got screwed by the contractors we hired. After 3 flakes, we were a bit nervous getting this work done. On The Geaux handled things much better and provided a much higher quality of work than the others we used. We also own rental townhouses and will be using On The Geaux for maintenance and repairs there. Once the work was done, clean up, which was in the estimate, took 2 1/2 weeks to get done. Form boards with rusty nails we had to move ourselves from the backyard to a safer place, due to our having dogs (wife is a trainer) and very young grandchildren. After a couple of calls they finally got someone here to take care of it, and it was done properly and professionally. No one is perfect, and this type of work is full of bad apples and criminals, but On The Geaux was by far the best experience we've had so far. They weren't perfect, cut no one is, and they actually tried very hard to accommodate us professionally. That meant a lot to us. I would hire them again, but I would stay on top of things a bit more aggressively on my end. They are the best we've used, and as said before, after using several very shady contractors who've left us with huge regrets. On The Geaux should be at the top of anyone's list of go-to contractors."

Glass Block questions, answered by experts

New glass costs anywhere from $3 to $100 per square foot. More specifically, tempered and insulated glass—a common option for sliding glass doors—costs between $10 and $14 per square foot.

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.

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.

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.

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.
