"A couple of minor adjustments had to be followed up on. This was done in a timely fashion. The one complaint that I have is the crew left broken glass and nails in my driveway and walkway"
"Great! Our sales rep, Dennis, was a great guy: low pressure, attentive, he went over all my options and listened to what I wanted; then he told me exactly how the process would work. Everything came in when he said it would come in and the price was exactly what he said the price would be. The crew that installed everything was prompt; they worked quickly and did a great job of making sure everything was installed with as little muss and fuss as possible. We had a glass block window that had been poorly installed in a tile wall; Dennis told us this window would be tricky to take out and a new window to be installed. The crew did a great job though; they were careful and only barely cracked one tile (which other salesmen told us it could turn out disastrously; and Dennis warned us that the way the window set no matter how careful the crew was the tile was at risk). So it was a huge relief that it turned out so well, and of course a testament to how care the crew was. A few days later Brenda, one of the owners, followed up, and she did a great job of making sure I was happy with the work and that everything had gone well."

"Called & made an appointment. Was timely. Gave references. Set up date to install windows, was a little late for appointment. Was effecient taking out and replacing windows, except for large picture window. Had to break glass to remove. Though they protected the floor still found shards of glass on floor and table top. A return call to see if satisfied with wondows. Will use them again to replace smaller picture windows."
"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."
"Ken and Carlos from Top Line Glass were great. They are primarily in the business of installing glass shower doors but accepted my job for hanging mirrors and artwork. They had the tools needed, collaborated with me, made good recommendations and even vacuumed up the minor dust. They treated my home like it was their own."
"The workers were very professional and did an excellent job. They changed the rollers on the sliding glass door. They did what they said they would do and charged exactly what they said they would charge. I definitely would hire them again should I ever need them."

You can still see vaguely into some types of glass block windows at night. Although there won’t be clear definitions, passersby may still see shapes, shadows, and movement through the glass. If you want complete privacy, consider installing diamond glass block windows rather than the typical clear or wavy glass blocks.
Broken glass cannot usually be recycled. Most recycling programs state that glass must be intact in the form of bottles or jars in order to be recycled. You may be able to recycle broken glass at a drop-off recycling facility—contact the facility to see if they accept broken glass.
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.
To tell if a window is single or double-pane, focus on the edge. Double-pane windows have two glass layers separated by a spacer, which you can usually see around the edges. For single-pane windows, it’s just one sheet of glass. Another easy trick: shine a light at the window—single-pane glass reflects once, while double-pane glass reflects twice. Lastly, if you feel both sides of the glass on a cold day, double-paned windows will feel warmer because of the insulating gap between the panes.
Yes, you can resilver old mirrors without any issues, and in many cases, it’s is the only way to maintain and preserve old, antique mirrors. Resilvering involves stripping the old silver off of the mirror, replacing the silver, and adding a protective backing to the glass. The process costs around $15 per square foot of glass, making it a relatively inexpensive solution for making older mirrors functional again. You can buy a DIY resilvering kit, but we strongly recommend hiring a professional to avoid additional damage and mistakes.
