"This is the second bathroom that I’ve had Miguel and his team come out to install the glass shower door. They were very professional throughout the process and the price was very reasonable. Great service just like they were with my first bathroom project 7 years ago! Thanks for the great work. Highly recommend Installers DMV"

"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'd like to give 15 stars. Stop searching for a stained glass studio. HIRE TERRAZA NOW. I had what I thought was a simple stained glass project, and I knew exactly what I wanted. After contacting a dozen studios, I found that Terraza was the most willing to take a shot at the project, and it offered the best price by far. Donna sat with me, brainstormed and shared her expertise. What I came away with wasn't a thing like I thought I wanted, and yet it was PERFECT. The project wasn't simple. It required engineering outside-the-box for a stained glass studio, and with Donna's eager, enthusiastic advice and involvement, the project was a total success. Along the way, there was a glitch, but Terraza handled it with aplomb. In fact, when the project was delivered personally by Terraza, we were told that unless we liked it, it was going back. Donna was unhappier than she thought we might be with the way something played out, and she practically demanded the opportunity to improve it. All was made right, and now, every time I enter my living room where the project resides, a get a happy feeling about it and my dealings with Terraza. I have another stained glass project at hand, and a simple, quick note to Donna brought Terraza right on board."

"Made an appt. with Castle Rep, James, for 17 windows and vinyl siding. He spent 1 hour talking about how great his company and windows are before finally getting down to the issue. We were told that CASTLE makes and services their own window, with all the best technology and technicians available. The price per window for energy efficient came out to over $1,200 per double-hung window! And since they make their own products, we could not find a way to compare quality and price with other manufacturers. But his per-window price exceeds the average price of $500-700 by A LOT! When we balked, he made a call to his "manager" to see if we qualified for a "special promotional" discount. If we were to commit right there on the spot, we would get an additional 10% off! Still way to high. We said we would think about it (he got sad and snippy), and that we wanted to hear about the vinyl siding quote before we made any decisions. He told us he could not give us a siding quote until his company did an "eagle view" measurement, which would require another appointment! We had no intention of sitting through ANOTHER high-pressure appointment. High pressure, long-drawn out presentation and he would not leave us with anything in writing! No brochures, prices, nothing! He refused to put anything in writing and we could not have a break down of labor and costs. I even asked him if I could have a copyhh of the window warranty and he said "only if you purchase right now." And they did not come prepared with references or previous job locations! When we further researched the company, we found they did make very excellent products, but the #1 complaint was by far that they did not honor their lifetime warranty and that customer service was horrible. In the end, we chose not to do business.."

Glass Block 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.

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

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.

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.

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.
