"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."
If you are not feeling the love then you are not experiencing the Higgins way. It is our aim to be sensitive to how every aspect of a remodel project effects your life. We ask these questions of every project we are undertaking: • Is this project aligned with the homeowners long-term goals as it relates to real estate values, family size etc? • Is this project economically feasible? • How do we do this in a way that minimizes impact on the homeowners daily routine? • Is it feasible for us to meet all of the homeowners expectation at this price point? • Are we dealing with issues as they arise so the homeowner knows what we know? • When the project is completely done does the homeowner feel totally taken care of?
"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! "

"Some other companies wouldnâ t come out to fix one glass. Glass Guru didnâ t hesitate when I called. Awesome job, couldnâ t even tell the glass was replaced on the door."
"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
"We replaced the windows in our 1933 home through the services of MadCity Windows. From the initial contact with their sales representative to final installation, the company provided top notch professional work. With the draft from the old windows and the cold of the glass, we are already saving on our energy bills. Our house had old, large windows, so they had to be custom made. As an industrial designer and interior designer, we find our windows to be of excellent quality."
Shower doors can shatter on their own in rare cases. Glass shower doors are manufactured to high standards to ensure their durability. If you’d prefer a shower door that’s less likely to break, opt for laminated glass rather than tempered glass.
If you have glass shower doors, inspect them regularly. Check that all the hardware is in good shape and the glass has no chips or cracks.
Yes, WD-40 can remove stickers from glass thanks to its chemical properties that can break down adhesives. Be sure to wear protective gloves when handling WD-40. Spray the window or glass item, and let it sit for 10 minutes before scraping it with a plastic scraper or credit card.
Cutting glass yourself can be dangerous, as the edges are sharp and can easily cause lacerations if you’re not careful. Working with larger pieces of glass is especially dangerous, as they can be cumbersome and difficult to handle without shattering. If you’re uncomfortable doing the work yourself, you can hire a professional to get the job done safely.
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 fences are extremely strong. You can drop 10mm thick tempered glass on concrete and it wouldn't break. Considering that certain types of glass are bulletproof, glass has the capacity to be exceptionally durable and resistant to breaking. Certain types of glass, like laminated glass, are designed to not shatter at all, but rather break into giant pieces.
