"Tom did a wonderful job. He tore down our existing porch and hauled it all away. He cleaned up everyday before he left. Very Professional. Our new porch is beautiful, the quality is excellent. He made sure everything was done top notch. The price was very reasonable. He actually did extras that we weren't even expecting. We would definitely recommend him!!!!!!!! He even made friends with our dog. She ate lunch with him everyday.."

Glass Block questions, answered by experts

Most installations take 1-3 days, depending on the number of blocks and customization requirements.

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 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.

Options include tempered, laminated, and tinted glass for various needs.

Installing glass block windows has benefits and disadvantages, as with most materials. The pros and cons can vary depending on the type of glass block and the window location.
