Glass Block Windows questions, answered by experts

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

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

Glass block windows cost about $710 to install, ranging from $460 to $980. The cost factors of installing this type of specialty window include the opening size, design, layout, height, glass block type, installation type, and location. There are many block styles to choose from, including colored, clear, wavy, diamond, and frosted.

Consider the following price ranges of installing glass blocks based on size:

  • 25-by-25 inches: $60–$300

  • 31-by-31 inches: $65–$350

  • 36-by-36 inches: $85–$475

  • 48-by-48 inches: $155–$840

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.

Although glass block windows are made of multiple layers of thick glass, they’re still susceptible to breaking. If your glass block window shatters, contact a window repair professional to remove and replace the glass block. Don’t attempt to handle it yourself because the broken glass can be dangerously sharp. A window repair pro will have the tools and expertise to replace the broken glass block quickly. Before hiring, be sure to confirm the repair pro has experience with repairing or replacing that specific type of window.
