"Our glass shower door seized up and would only open part way. Bruno came over the day I called him, assessed the problem, sourced a glass door replacement hinge and installed it. Excellent customer service. Thank you, Bruno."
"Our experience with Capital was fantastic from start to finish. Tim was great about matching the specifics of what we wanted with our budget and space. Jeff was very professional and thorough about explaining to us our choices when it came to picking out a window and type of glass and he was great about communicating with us throughout the entire process. Bryan did a phenomenal job of installing our window -- we feel lucky to have had him work on our house. He knows what he is doing and paid attention to every detail. He installed a window that has transformed our kitchen and first floor. We are very happy with our experience."
"My project was a bathroom remodel. ( onyx shower, onyx vanity, toilet and lighting. From the start I knew I made the right decision on hiring Handi Rite for this project. Last year I hired Handi Rite for a kitchen, hallway painting and replacing electrical outlets. In my review you can read why I hired Handi Rite for this project. Staci was always pleasant on the phone and made sure all calls were forwarded to Ben. Ben was always and I repeat always was on time. That in itself speaks volumes on how he operates his business. Ben's precise attention to detail on this project and previous project is something that all companies in this type of business should operate. There were no shortcuts at all. He also gave me direction in hiring a plumbing company and glass ( shower door ) company for this project. And, I am very pleased on their work they preformed. If I have any future projects I will again use Handi Rite. Again, I want to thank Ben for his work and Staci for her role."
"Called Beissel Windows & Siding and left a message for John. When he returned my call, John explained what was needed on my part to have a warrantied piece of glass shipped to them for installation. When the glass arrived, an appointment was made and a glass technician came to my home and did the replacement. All the Beissel employees were very professional and pleasant, and the work performed was top notch! "

"Both installers did a very good job, they were polite, respectful, and diligent. There is still a very tiny piece of debris in between the glass of one of the window windows. There needs to be better quality control when these panes of glass are put together to make sure they are completely debris and smudge free. This has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of work that the technicians did"
"This is our third project with Champion. In our old home on Minneapolis- we had a complete replacement project. It was an amazing experience. In our new home, we this will be our second project- which when done equals, 13 windows replaced and an entire front entry (door, 2 side lites, 1 transom). From our sales rep, Wes, to the team that does the final measurement, to installations, it is nothing but professionalism. I also cannot say enough about how great the comfort 360 glass is and how easy the windows are clean! Thank you Champion Windows and Wes!"
"It went great. I'm pretty sure the old windows were the house's original ones (circa 1934) , and they were in very bad shape. Drafty, single-paned, lots of rot and decay in the frames. This was a job that couldn't be put off any longer. TCSP repaired ALL the frames, installed new double-paned thermal windows for most of the old ones. In the bathroom where the window frame was a particular disaster because of moisture, TCSP repaired the frame and installed a glass block window that lets in light but still provides privacy. On four windows which I did not wish to replace because I wanted to retain certain architectural features, TCSP, again repaired frames and then installed new screens and storms. From the beginning of the project, I was impressed by TCSP's focus on customer service. I interviewed and received estimates from several potential providers. Frankly, TCSP was the one I felt safest with. They gained my confidence that the job would be done well. Throughout the project communications and questions were responded to promptly. As a matter of fact, questions were encouraged. Answers and explanations were offered clearly (sometimes repeatedly) and always patiently. Here is what I wrote to Terry Stammen after the project was finished: Hello Terry, I want to thank you and everyone at Twin Cities Siding Professionals for my new windows. They're great. I'm very pleased. The project was completed in a timely fashion. All the workmen were able, pleasant and courteous. Curt was particularly helpful in tying up loose ends. The windows themselves are wonderful. I will have no hesitation about recommending TCSP to others in the future. Thank you again, very much. Tim Cope

The cost of adding glass to your kitchen cabinet doors depends on the number of cabinets, type of glass, and labor costs. Glass typically costs between $5 to $20 per sheet and you can expect to purchase complementary hardware materials for $2 to $50 each. If you’re hiring a cabinet professional to install glass in your cabinet doors, ask them for a specific estimate before hiring.
When glass shatters, larger shards quickly drop to the ground, but smaller particles can go on an airborne journey up to 15 feet from the point of impact. So check under furniture, along the edges of rugs, and in dark corners for glass fragments. When in doubt, vacuum the entire room a few times after thoroughly cleaning.
Whether it's better to repair or replace a broken mirror depends on its size, value, and the extent of the damage. For small, inexpensive mirrors, replacement is often the better choice, as the average repair cost of around $200 can be close to the price of a new one. However, for large mirrors—like those over a bathroom vanity or large floor mirrors—repair is usually more cost-effective. A new large mirror can cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars, while repairs typically range from $50 to $200. You should also consider the mirror's age and sentimental value. Antique mirrors and family heirlooms are often priceless and irreplaceable, making repair the most sensible or only option.
Just how long it takes to install a wall mirror depends on the size of your wall, the type of mirror, the installation method, whether you decide to hire a professional, and the number of installers. For smaller walls with multiple trained professionals and acrylic mirror sheets, you can anticipate having your wall finished within an hour. Larger walls comprised of several custom mirrors can take upward of four hours to complete.
Prior to the middle part of the 1900s, glass manufacturers used a technique that involved blowing glass into cylinder shapes that were then flattened out to create sheets used for windows and doors. This technique often left behind ripples and inconsistencies in the glass.
