"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."
"Juan-B and Brett did a FANTASTIC job helping us replace a weather strip on our 26 year old sliding glass door. I did not want to take a chance ruining the door after I realized how amazing the engineering is on the weather stripping. I wasn’t sure if the aluminum cladding went over the stripping keeping it in place or not. The Juan and Brett team were extremely knowledgeable, experienced, confident and professional. They also assisted with helping us assess other door parts that we had questions about. I would recommend Pella doors and windows to anyone looking to replace them. We replaced every single door and window in our house and garage with Pella windows starting back in 1997. I would also strongly recommend having this duo do any installations and or repairs to your windows and doors. Mark M. , Edina, MN"
"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! "

"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

"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."
This happens when condensation forms due to your room temperature being lower than its dew point. You can clean the glass with a combination of baking soda, vinegar, and warm water to wipe away the fog from the doors.
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.
Using caulk is one of the simplest and most recommended methods to finish glass tile edges. It creates an elegant seam between the glass tile and the adjacent area, along with a waterproof seal. With this method, you want to use a caulk color that matches the grout and, along with the grout, compliments the tile. Make sure the caulk line is smooth and even. Alternatively, you can use a bullnose or tile trimming to edge, however, that will also require caulk to seal.
You can clean the oven window the same way you clean the oven walls. Make a paste of baking soda and water and let it sit on the window overnight before wiping it off with a damp cloth. You might find it helpful to rub the baking soda paste in with an old toothbrush.
