Q: Can you see through glass block windows at night?

• <div><p>You can still see vaguely into some types of glass block windows at night. Although there won&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to install glass blocks?

• <div><p>Installation costs range from $400 to $1,500, depending on wall size, design complexity, and labor.</p></div>

Q: What kind of mortar do you use for glass block windows?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Do glass block windows need maintenance?

• <div><p>Luckily, glass block windows need minimal maintenance. Other than regular cleaning, the only maintenance involved in having a glass block window is inspecting for cracks every year and applying sealer to the mortar joints if the blocks are set in masonry mortar. Glass block windows hold up well against wind and moisture better than traditional windows and are not prone to rot.</p></div>

Q: Do glass block windows come in different patterns and textures?

• <div><p>Glass block windows come in various patterns and styles that offer privacy and unique aesthetics. Frosted or textured glass diffuses light and enhances privacy. Wave-pattern glass blocks imitate ocean waves with flowing lines. Ice-glass blocks resemble cracked ice. Fluted glass blocks feature parallel vertical grooves, adding texture and depth. Clear glass blocks, similar to glass Coke bottles, offer transparency with some distortion and may have smooth surfaces or subtle textures, adding visual interest.</p></div>

Crew worked hard and did a good job on the house. My house has some weird angles and is pretty high in some places, but it didn't phase the guys at all. The rust removal on the chimney had limited effect so probably won't have that done next time.

"Portland Glass Hooksett NH Location. I had an entire bay window done by Robert and His co-worker on 4/25/2018. I have worked with a lot of companies and had tons of work done to my house and yard. This is by far the most professional, friendliest, highest quality work at the lowest amazing price. How can I sum up into words how amazing this company and the two gentlemen that came to my house are. This will not do them justice but simply the best I have ever seen in my 49 years around. Everyone that is out there that can not trust a review or wonder who is writing and why well I am just a hard working guy who wanted to make his wife happy since we couldn't even see out this bay window for 18 years.
