"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."
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?
"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! "

"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."
"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!"
Storm door panels are typically made from tempered or laminated glass, and each type has its benefits. Tempered glass goes through a special heating and cooling process, increasing its strength and durability. It’s known for its safety features—when it breaks, it shatters into small, relatively harmless pieces rather than sharp shards. Laminated glass is made by sandwiching a layer of plastic between two layers of glass. This interlayer holds the glass pieces together even when shattered, preventing them from scattering.
Yes, you can replace just the glass pane in a window without affecting the surrounding frame. This is a complex process, so it is best to hire a window repair professional to handle the task. A technician will cut the seal, remove the old glass, install the new pane, and properly seal it. For double-pane windows, this includes creating a vacuum between the panes and filling it with insulative gas to restore energy efficiency. Professionals can also help you choose the right type of glass for your window. This repair process is almost always more affordable than replacing the entire window unit.
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.
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.
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.
