"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."
Window replacement in Minnesota is often a crucial investment for homeowners, especially considering the state's harsh climate with cold winters and hot summers. Upgrading to energy-efficient windows not only helps improve comfort and reduce energy costs but also enhances the overall value and curb appeal of homes. With a wide range of window options available, from low-maintenance vinyl to classic wood frames, homeowners in Minnesota have ample choices for replacement windows to suit their needs.
"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! "

"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

Yes, selecting double glazing or low-E coatings to reduce energy costs.
There are a couple of different mirrors that can make a small bathroom look bigger. If you need a functional mirror in the space, choose a frameless option instead of a mirror with thick or intricate framing. Heavy frames can make the space feel cluttered. Additionally, you can swap a large mirror with small frameless mirrors to create the illusion of more wall space.
Yes, you can replace just one pane of glass in a sliding glass door, but you may need to contact the door manufacturer directly to get the proper dimensions of the pane. It’s also worth checking your door’s warranty, as various parts may be covered for a particular timeframe, so you may not have to pay for the replacement pane. But consider the condition of the rest of the door. If the door is old or in bad shape, replacing the entire door is probably more cost-effective.
The methods outlined here are intended for surface scratches—ones that don’t cut into the glass very deeply. For deep scratches, you should consider a more comprehensive glass scratch repair kit. These kits come with abrasives, polishing compounds, and specialized tools designed for removing deep scratches from glass. If you feel uncomfortable tackling a deep scratch on your own, consider calling a local glass repair contractor.
Clean regularly with glass cleaner and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive materials to prevent scratches.
