Best glass block installation pros near Ashtabula, OH

"It went okay, except for three problems. One window had been measured incorrectly and had to be completed at a later time. Another window was not measured or replaced, despite reminding them that it still needed to be done. Finally, they broke a sliding glass door insert and didn't completely clean it up. I had to call them back to do it properly, and when they came, they had a bad attitude about it."

"Extremely knowledgeable and experienced which made choosing the right glass for our project easy. They know their stock and everything that is available. The quality of the workmanship is perfect."

"The installation team arrived promptly at 9am to begin work.  The installation team had the old window out and surface prepared within a the first half hour.  When the second truck arrived with the glass block panels the group installed the window.  There was a bit of a challenge with the vertical angle of the wall and one of the panels fell out on to soft dirt while being shimmed into place.  These guys are excellent bricklayers, and not only can you not tell where the vertical joints are between the panels, you cannot tell where they had to reset the rows as well.  Long story short, they did a terrific job, the window looks like one unit and the side of the garage looks great.  The total time for the job, arrival to departure was 2 hours.  The installation crew was professional and cleaned up the area leaving nothing behind.  The Ice pattern allows for the security and privacy we wanted AND allows a significant amount of daylight into the garage.  I will use Global Glass Block on my next glass block project.

"Very pleased with contractor and windows. Dan met with us personally to discuss the Interstate windows, and Aaron and crew did a great installation. Aaron kept us informed throughout the installation as to what was being done, what was next, and answered any questions. We like the look and features of the new windows vs our old aluminum windows. Quieter and a/c seems to run less. Looking forward to reduced energy bills, especially this winter."

"I had recently bought a used car which had very a very cheap and distorted windshield previously installed. It was so bad I would get dizzy or get headaches while driving. I called around looking for different prices, and not only was Guardian Auto Glass the cheapest, they were the only company that had a kind, knowledgeable person answering the phones to give me information that I needed. 

I had called around to get quotes, and when I mentioned I had their coupon from Angie's List, they saved the quote under my name so if I could call around some more and come back to them if I wanted. A few weeks went by before I decided to go through with getting my windshield replaced, and they still had the quote saved under my name when I called which was very convenient so I could set up an appointment right away.

They set up my appointment for the next day, in which the mobile service was going to come to my house to do the installation. The employee was right on time, and it took him less than an hour to replace the windshield. The glass is crystal clear, no distortion or imperfections whatsoever. While he was installing the windshield, he was very professional and courteous, and answered all my questions with intelligence and honesty. 

I was very worried about having my windshield replaced, especially considering it had been replaced before with very cheap and dangerous glass, but Guardian Auto Glass exceeded my expectations, and I will definitely do business with them again if needed."

"Great work. On time and professional. Only had one window that stress cracked. They come and repaired it no problem."

"The quality of the windows is excellent.  The crew was very quick and professional."

"We had new windows and siding installed in our 1967 house in the early fall. They did a wonderful job, siding lays beautiful, clean and smooth, you can barely see the seams. Installers were polite and cleaned up everything, every day. Could not be happier with how the finished product looks!"

"Quick Summary:
Mr. Siders did what he said he was going to do.  He did it on time and within the budget that he proposed.  He communicated well during the entire process.  The finished product worked without fault and looked great.  Absolute Kitchens and Baths has my unqualified recommendation.
Details:
Mr. Siders came on site and provided an estimate for the work to be done (remove old cast iron bath tub and convert to a walk-in shower for a first floor bath) within one week of being contacted about the work.  He arranged a mutually convenient time in the early evening.  He brought a number of catalogs with him as well as photos of his past work.  He thoroughly explained what he would do (in detail including the type of drywall he would use, how it would be taped, primed and finished).  The plumbing in the house was all copper and he explained that he would replace the copper from the shut-off valves in the basement (and install new  shut-off valves) up to the bathroom.  He also explained that he would replace the exterior wall insulation (which was blown-in) with new insulation and a vapor barrier. 
We received a in initial written estimate within the week.  The family discussed various options (styles of glass, types of fixtures, colors, etc).  We wanted a slightly different combination of accessories from what we originally discussed.  Mr. Siders went back to the manufacturer and verified which options were available and compatible with each other.  I usually emailed Mr. Siders and he normally responded by calling me the next day (even on the weekends).  He was able to get the style of glass for the shower doors desired by my mother.  We added grab bars and a hand shower to the original estimate.  Once we confirmed the details, he had a written estimate emailed back to me within a day.  His proposal included good quality Delta plumbing fixtures (not some of the cheaper products found in the big box stores).  The prices he charged for the additional fixtures that
we requested were inline with the best prices that I could find for the parts online. 
Mr. Siders was booked for two months our when we signed the proposal but he started within a few days of the original estimated starting time.  His original estimate was for three full days of work and then several partial days for the finish work as he had to wait for plaster/mud primer to dry.  His estimate was again very accurate and allowed my mother to plan around the
renovation activities.  When the work began, he took precautions against damaging the floor by putting down floor protecting boards.  He cleaned up after himself each day and a more thorough cleanup once the project was completed. 
As with any renovation in an older home, one runs into unexpected issues. This project was no different.  Mr. Siders dealt with each issue as it arose.  One issue was that the new shower had a much larger drain which was unfortunately located in such a way that it ran into one of the floor joists.  He contacted a local plumbing supply and got an offset floor drain to remedy the problem.  When it came time to put the finishing coat of paint on, it became apparent that even with the same color paint that matching the colors between the new and old paint would be an issue.  To make it look right, he washed all the walls in the bathroom and then primed and painted the entire room.  The final paint was to be provided by us (it was custom color that my mother wanted from Sherwin Williams).  Mr. Siders again worked with my mother so that she could wait a day to purchase the paint when it was on sale.  Mr. Siders did not charge (nor even discuss additional charges) for these issues or services.  It is apparent that he takes pride in making his jobs turn out right and look professionally done.
The bottom line is that Mr. Siders did what he said he was going to do.  He did it on time and within the budget in his proposal.  He communicated well during the entire process.  I never waited more than 24 hours (including weekends) to get my questions answered.  He explained to my mother what was going on each day during the construction.  He protected the house from damage during construction and cleaned up after himself.  The finished product worked without fault (no leaks) and looked like it had always been installed (rather than a new installation) to the point that my mother said that the bathroom hadn't looked as good since it was brand new (more than fifty years ago).

"The painting and dry wall in our 1600 square foot Bay
Village home is now wonderfully completed. 
I truly appreciate the attention to detail, as well as the courtesy and
professionalism demonstrated by Kevin and his team.
I changed my mind a number of times and was always treated
with respect .  Every one from Teppo Interiors
demonstrated a desire to go the extra mile in order to give me the altered
result I needed.  Specifically  I used the same ?vanilla ice cream? neutral
paint in  a bathroom, family room and
spare bedroom.   When I was quite confused
by the difference in the finishes (because of the various rooms? lighting),   Kevin worked
with to me to resolve my  to find
solutions.   Upon reflection I stuck with the original
color and had the trim on all the windows and floor boards repainted a bright
white.  I now love the result.   .  
I strongly recommend Teppo Interiors for their dedication
and tenacity to make their customers happy. 
The team under Kevin?s direction is knowledgeable, very professional and
reflect Kevin?s mission to get his projects done well and on time.  I recommend Teppo Interiors and plan to
exclusively use them for all my upcoming projects.
