"Glass impressions provided us with size and price options that best for our wants and needs. It was installed very efficiently. We love it, and it's perfect for our space!"
"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 immediatly contacted Royal Glass and they quickly scheduled me at a location near my job (Beltsville, MD). The chip repair took about 40 mins and cost $70. I completely forgot to use my Angie's List coupon, so it would've been $25 less! The customer service was EXCELLENT and they even vacuumed the inside of my car free of charge! Ask for Russ....he's the best! "
"William from Boston Windows was exceedingly professional and up front. I called him for a quote to replace the windows in my townhouse. He was able to come to my house the next day to take measurements. He has been doing installations since he was 16 and had alot of knowledge. Prior to the visit, he had me send some photos of my windows to try to gage the price of the job better as well. Long story short, Mr. Boston tried to price match one of my quotes for me, but there ended up being a problem with the way my windows were cut in the townhouse on the outside, which would have increased the cost of the job by several hundred dollars because he has to pay staff to do it (vs. the other company, whose labor is all in-house). In other words, he couldn't match the price after all because I was already offered a discount from the other company and the job was so complicated. The other window companies would not have paid attention to the level of detail Mr. Boston had specified, but I ended up making my decision due to budget reasons. Mr. Boston even went and looked at my neighbor's windows to compare the architecture (since town houses are supposed to be built the same). Mr. William did not pressure me in a sale like some other companies and was up front about the cost and what I was going getting myself into if I went with X, Y, or Z. He told me flat out, that if the other similar company could keep everything in-house and could cut me a really good deal, I should go with them. Because of that, I really appreciate it. I would recommend giving BWD windows a chance if you are on the market for windows; he will try his best to work with the prices, being a one-man shop. If you have a really complicated job that would significantly affect the functioning of your house however, I would also recommend having his expertise on the job. I will be calling him if I ever need a repair on a window or door down the line."
"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. "
"It was an overall great experience!! I called old line glass explaining my dilemma. They came to give me an estimate 2 days later. The best part of all was they were able to do most of the work that same day. I thought they were going to have to order glass or at least the screens, but to my surprise he cut the glass right then and there and made the screens. Very happy would definitely recommend them."
Everything went well. Workers came and cleaned up. No problems with installation.
If you want your windows done, call them. If you are "thinking about it". Don't call. They will call you daily afterwards. I had to block them from my phone as they continue to call me every 2 days for what I don't know. Work was well but the phone calls are annoying.
"We used the Mega Kitchen and Bath in Silver Spring. We worked with Abrihim who helped us design our bathroom remodel. Grover and his assistant did the work. They came in the morning and worked until late afternoon, sometimes until 6pm. The work was excellent and completed in a timely fashion. We are very happy with the finished product and I would highly recommend Mega Kitchen and Bath, Silver Spring location."
