"Beckwith Glass is the best. Brian is very particular regarding the small details that are probably never apparent to the consumer. He is a very neat and meticulous craftsman who genuinely puts quality first as he knows his name is attached to every job he does. He installed a somewhat complicated 2-sided glass shower enclosure with the door hinged on a fixed panel. It came out beautifully both in appearance and function. You will not go wrong by choosing Beckwith Glass. Brian Beckwith is an honest man."
"Quality firm that does great work. They put a new roof on 12+ years ago and recently came out to give us a "tune-up". Cement roof tiles. Looks like new. No issues and very responsive. Good folks."
"We had an amazing experience with Vera Glass and Mirror for our glass shower door installation. From the very first contact, the team was professional, attentive, and extremely knowledgeable. They helped us choose the perfect glass enclosure for our bathroom and guided us through every step of the process."
"James C was very professional in explaining his window product and we were very happy to move forward with Dabella to get our windows upgraded. Now the work has been done we are incredibly pleased with the result and the look of our new windows"
"If you are frustrated with trying to find a company that actually shows up to do your project, you really should consider Eagle Glass. The team at Eagle came out when they said, quoted my job, and did the install when they said they would. The installation came out great, I couldn't be happier."
The best tool for DIYers to use to cut glass is a glass cutter, which can either use a straight blade or a sharp cutting wheel to score glass. Once you score the lines you want to cut, elevate the scored line over a pivot point and apply light, even pressure to both sides. Make sure you wear protective gloves and glasses to stay safe during the process.
Costs depend on mirror size, mounting hardware, and additional features like lighting.
Installation typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on the mirror size and mounting requirements.
The average mirror has a lifespan of 10 to 15 years. After that, the coating begins to deteriorate, losing its reflective properties. Acrylic mirrors have a slightly shorter lifespan of seven to 10 years. Higher-quality acrylic sheets with UV-resistant properties have lifespans similar to those of your average mirror. By maintaining your mirrors and keeping them out of direct sunlight when not in use, you can extend their lifespan. Some mirrors can last for decades.
Standard mirrors come in many different shapes, sizes, and thicknesses, so you can often find a great fit for your space without adding customizations. Custom mirrors are ideal if your space has very specific constraints. For instance, you may need a much longer or wider mirror than you can find in a standard mirror. You might also want a custom mirror if you have particular styling preferences, such as a frame with a specific finish or a unique edge.
