"They are an excellent and reliable company. We have used them to replace siding on our house, to install triple glass sliding doors, and most recently they replaced our roof. Highly recommend."
"Zen windows provided my wife and I with a great first-time window replacement experience! After shopping around and receiving 5 quotes from local installers that all felt like they were giving us sketchy sales tactics, Zen gave us the best price with a zero pressure quote over the phone within an hour of contacting them. Scott was always responsive, helpful, and patient guiding us through the process and following my HOA's requirements. The install team worked like a well-oiled machine and completed the project with zero issues. Thanks again, Zen!"
"Spectacular! In the driving snow Jeremiah replaced 2-8x11 window panes, one behind a large storm window that need to be removed, for installation. Been staring at the broken glass for years trying to figure out how it came apart, one look and Jeremiah knew it had to be done from the outside...and that is why I hired a pro."
"I’m really impressed with Michael Anthony from ARHT Home absolutions, his professionalisms and sincerealism on every step of the roof work process from the beginning to end was amazing. He called me most every day to give an update on the work. This is my first time hiring someone for this large of a project I had so many doubts to do it or not but Michael explained so well and gave the confidence to go head with the roof project. My roof looks so beautiful that I am getting complements from my neighbors every time that I am outside. Our next project are windows/bay window install.. and yes by Michael which actually will be install really soon before Christmas ?. ...Thank you Michael and your team. From a happy costumer and homeowner Alex Altamirano"
"A. R. Glass did a fantastic job. Instead of having to replace my windows, they were able to come in and replace the glass for considerable savings. I would definitely have them come again. In fact, I had them come for a second job already."
"I had two old sliding glass doors where the wood around the glass was rotting. The needed to be replaced. I went to the Germantown Home Show and got three companies to come out and do an estimate. Presidential was easily the best choice of the three. The doors got ordered and a month or so later they arrived and were installed the next day. The crew from Presidential was professional and courteous. The door installation went quick and they cleaned up like they weren't even there. I am very pleased with my new doors."
"I am very pleased with the communication of this company. I reached out to them at a job site and met Leaha's their project manager. The properly got me setup for an estimate of services. I did decide to replace 4 front windows. Deposit was easy to make. Windows came in timely. Yesterday my project manager was also Leah who came first advised me what was going to happen, whom was coming and when. My window team came, two great guys that amazed me how quick they got my windows out. They were upmost polite and respectful of my home and myself. Very little dust and they cleaned up everything. My windows were put in 1982 and I had cracks and they were unsafe. This team worked wonders.....new easy to be clean tilt in windows ...even easy for a woman to move. The window guys the caulking is the best Ive ever seen....so sealed and straight. The went over how to remove screens, clean windows. Kudos to the entire team. Project Manager Leaha drove back...spoke with me, inspected"
"They did an awesome job!!!! Would highly recommend and would use them again for another leak or a total roof replacement. Very impressed!! Thank you!!"
"The Premier Windows and Glass has provided an excellent service for me! A frame of one of the windows in my condo was broken, and I looked for a company that would fix it and prolong the life of the window. So, I was very happy to discover The Premier Windows and Glass. Their technician was very polite, professional, and knowledgeable. Not only did he do a quality job on fixing the frame, but he also explained to me what needs to be done to prevent the window from breaking down again and avoid paying a lot of money for its replacement. In addition, the manager and technician responded to my service request in a prompt manner. The problem was solved on the day when I called the company. Last but not least, the company offers competitive service rates and does not push people to spend more money than is absolutely necessary. I would strongly recommend this company to anyone who needs a window to be fixed or replaced."
Smart glass may still work at night, but it depends on the type of smart glass. Some options, smart tint, are controlled by outdoor heat and light and therefore will turn back to transparent at night. Other types can provide a frosted look for some privacy at night. For example, you can turn PDLC smart glass completely opaque any time, day or night.
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.
Replacing window glass instead of the entire window is more cost-effective, maintains the frame's aesthetics, and reduces waste. It improves insulation and energy efficiency and can be completed more quickly with minimal disruption to the home.
Smart glass doesn’t use a lot of electricity, and you can expect a standard window to add between $1 and $2 per year to your electric bills. Smart glass is proof that energy-efficient windows work. Although your smart windows may consume a little energy to operate, they can save enough energy to offset the costs. If you’re concerned about the minimal bump to your electricity consumption, you can opt for smart tint, which doesn’t require electricity to work.
Costs range from $150 to $500, depending on size, framing, and labor.
