"Don made the drive out to my home to measure my existing basement window openings. He then sat down with me and explained to me what my options were as far as glass blocks and different features available. He was fully prepared to show me how MGB produces the windows and the install process. I thought the pricing was very fair and they had the block windows finished in just a few days. Both Don and Scott in the office were extremely professional and answered every question I had. I would highly recommend Maryland Glass Block."

"I called and he was able to come right away and pick up the table.  Promised to have it ready in one week, and true to his word, had it back the following Saturday.  Delivered the table, and reinstalled the medicine cabinet mirror.  I am very pleased with the service and the job.  Would recommend him and would use him again.

Glass Block questions, answered by experts

Regular cleaning with non-abrasive cleaners helps prevent buildup and maintains clarity.

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.

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.

You can still see vaguely into some types of glass block windows at night. Although there won’t be clear definitions, passersby may still see shapes, shadows, and movement through the glass. If you want complete privacy, consider installing diamond glass block windows rather than the typical clear or wavy glass blocks.

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.
