"My initial call was returned in a timely manner.  Three young men arrived promptly at the scheduled time.  I was given an estimate of the charges for washing my windows inside and out plus the screens.  Very reasonable.  They started work immediately and completed the job in a very professional manner.  I will definitely schedule this company in the future.

"From the salesman to the project manager to the workers, this was professional pleasurable experience. The company's culture was evident as everyone bent over backwards to ensure that the customer experience was optimal. They brought their own portable toilet and were very gentle with plants and bushes. The salesman Steve and foreman Jay communicated through the phases of project and most importantly of all, my house looks better than my neighbors' who used what looked like "two guys and a truck". I called the office and the owner Bob Ruele picked up the phone - hands-on service. I would highly recommend this firm."

"People have actually asked me where I got the slate!  Both the driveway and the backyard look brilliant.  They showed up when they said they would, did the job in a timely manner and were incredibly professional.  From now on whenever I have any jobs in my house that need concrete I will not hesitate to contact them.

"My experience with him was good.  The quote amount was between $2500 and $10000; it was a wide range.  He was honest.  I think he would have done a good job.  My only thing was that he had to hire an electrician and two other guys.  So it was going to be three separate bills.  He was 30 minutes late."

"Like any big job, some things changed as we went along. Andres had some personal appointments that we had to work around. We figured out how we would do the tile work on the fly. I had some supplies on hand...others he had to go out and buy. But he did the job for the price he quoted, and added on a couple of stucco repairs for a small upcharge. I think I could have had this job done for a bit less money, but I can't imagine it would have come out as nice as what he did. He's worth it. Totally pleasant to work with, he put down protective sheets so he never muddied up the floor, and he brought a helper that was good natured and competent. D*** right I'd use him again!

Glass Block questions, answered by experts

Glass walls are more expensive overall than their brick or drywall counterparts. However, if you need walls for a building with more than two or three stories, glass walls are the more budget-friendly option.

Their thickness depends on application, but most glass walls are typically 3/8 to 3/4 of an inch thick. Although it’s not as common, single panes of glass can also be 1 inch thick.

New glass costs anywhere from $3 to $100 per square foot. More specifically, tempered and insulated glass—a common option for sliding glass doors—costs between $10 and $14 per square foot.

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.

Pros

  • Maintains privacy while letting light into the bathroom

  • Energy efficient

  • Sealed to prevent drafts

  • Aesthetically pleasing

  • Strong and secure

Cons

  • Costly to install

  • Challenging installation

  • Challenging repair

Although glass block windows are made of multiple layers of thick glass, they can still break. If an individual block shatters, it can be removed and replaced, but this is a job for a window repair professional. The project is often complex and may require breaking the block further for removal. Do not attempt to handle it yourself, as the broken glass can be dangerously sharp. A professional will have the necessary tools and expertise to replace the broken glass block quickly and safely. Before hiring, confirm that the repair pro has experience with this specific type of window.
