"The work was completed in a timely manner. The gutters were rehung using extra hangers every 12 inches instead of the original 24 inches. There was a strong downpour the day after the work was completed and the rainwater flowed in the downspouts correctly."

"CW shows up on time. He does everything very quickly but detailed at the same time. If you have a list of "honey do list", stop fighting with your spouse regarding who should do what, and just have CW do them for you. I count myself pretty handy, but what would take me an hour would only take him 20 minutes to do. I have started writing down a list of things needed to be done around the house, and then will just call him up when we have a good amount.

"We had a list of things that we needed done.  Al contacted us promptly and visited to look at the scope of the issue with our bathroom.  We thought the damage we had was from the water coming from the shower, but he readily diagnosed it as cracks in the exterior wall.  Someone came and did the tuckpointing on the next warm day, and the following week Al and his team did the rest of the work.  They were quick, communicative, and affordable.

Crew showed up on time each day and went right to work.  Cleaned up each day before they left.  They were great to work with and delivered what they promised.  This was a small job but they treated it as if it were the only job they had.


It is to my shame that I took so long to write this review.  I've ben too busy enjoying the patio (maybe not so much during current season).

"This is an older job, but since Angie's List requested feedback for this contractor and we had them accomplish a substantial amount of work (over $34,000) we figured this would be worth writing about.
Had a walk-through listening to what we wanted in the basement in Autumn 2009.  About 7 days later had an appointment where we had a computerized view of what they had designed for us.  Payment was very well spelled out - at different milestones, a percentage was paid.  Very professional and almost exactly what wife was looking for.  Perfectly followed their timetable...even dealing with finicky subcontractors for different aspects of the basement finish.  Clean-up every night was immaculate.  No complaints about the long-term quality of work except the dry-walling and shower area...where after 24 months, we noticed significant cracking in the drywall and separation of the paneling in the bathroom.  Tiling was good except around the sliding glass door, probably due to some water intrusion the grout is cracking.
Our house was built by Fulford.  We have many complaints about what we consider to be mediocre construction of the house (especially our lousy carpet laying), but the basement, especially the carpet seems to be of sound materials and worksmanship.  If we didn't have the issues in the bathroom with the panels and caulking, I'd probably have rated them close to straight "A"s."

Glass Block questions, answered by experts

Glass block windows aren’t fire hazards; fire-rated glass block windows can increase your home’s fire safety. Modern glass blocks are made with materials that can resist high temperatures and prevent fire spread. Most offer a 45-minute fire rating, while some increase it to two hours. Compared to the typical 20 to 90 minute rating for a double-pane window, glass block can increase your home’s safety in the event of a fire.

Glass block mortar is the best choice for glass block window units. It is specifically formulated for glass block window installation. Glass block mortar is usually a mixture of Portland cement, sand, and special chemicals. It is a white mortar that is applicable inside and outside your home. Do not use regular tile mortar because it may not have the binding strength and flexibility required for glass block windows.

Heavy glass tends to be more expensive than thin glass because it is stronger and more durable. In most cases, ¼-inch-thick glass is ideal for mirrors, and ⅛-inch-thick glass is ideal for residential windows. Heavier glass isn’t always necessary, and can be more challenging to hang or install. Work with a local window installation pro for replacement or new construction windows.

DIY is possible for small projects, but professional installation ensures proper sealing, structural integrity, and a precise finish.

Glass block windows typically last for 15 to 30 years, which is slightly less than the 20- to 50-year lifespan of standard windows. You can extend their life by resealing them every few years. Professional installation is also key to ensuring the windows are placed correctly and will function properly for years to come. A professional installer will have the necessary skills, tools, and knowledge to install these features and can identify potential issues like damaged frames or cramped areas during a consultation.
