"Left 3-4 phone messages (1 with an employee, 3 on answering machine) and 2 email messages before I got anyone to call me back. I got an appointment the next day and the rep came on time and assessed damages. I was told I would receive an email estimate the next day. I was obviously eager to have my window repaired/replaced as soon as possible. Did not hear from company as promised. Again left messages. Finally received an estimate via email 1 week later. By that time, I had lined up another glass company and agreed on their price. Window has since been replaced."

"After gutting the bathroom and removing all of the old stuff he insulated the walls, hung new sheet rock & painted it, added new door & window trim, installed an exhaust fan, new lighting, vanity, toilet, etc.  We did away with the old tub and had him put in a new shower, which is beautifully tiled and has a nice sliding glass door.  He also tiled the floor, which looks great.  He does great tile work!  Kenny was a pleasure to work with throughout the whole job.  We did have a few delays, but that was due to the suppliers (Weinstein Supply & H. Winter Tile) getting things in on time and not due to Kenny.  Kenny was always very punctual and showed up when he said he would (ready to start sharp at 8 AM each day).  He did lose his one employee near the end of the job, but these things happen and Kenny made up for it and completed the job within our expectations.

Everything went well.  Workers came and cleaned up.  No problems with installation.

If you want your windows done, call them.  If you are "thinking about it".  Don't call.  They will call you daily afterwards.  I had to block them from my phone as they continue to call me every 2 days for what I don't know.  Work was well but the phone calls are annoying.

Glass Block questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Glass block windows typically last for 15 to 30 years, which is slightly less than the 20- to 50-year lifespan of standard windows. You can extend their life by resealing them every few years. Professional installation is also key to ensuring the windows are placed correctly and will function properly for years to come. A professional installer will have the necessary skills, tools, and knowledge to install these features and can identify potential issues like damaged frames or cramped areas during a consultation.

Glass block installation can be relatively expensive due to the range of material costs and the labor time to assemble this type of specialty window. The process proceeds slowly as the glass does not absorb moisture from mortar and silicone caulk takes longer to harden, leaving spacers to hold up the structure until the caulk or mortar begins to cure. Plus, if your current windows have structural issues or damage, you’ll need to repair them before beginning the project, increasing your bottom line. 

Heavy glass tends to be more expensive than thin glass because it is stronger and more durable. In most cases, ¼-inch-thick glass is ideal for mirrors, and ⅛-inch-thick glass is ideal for residential windows. Heavier glass isn’t always necessary, and can be more challenging to hang or install. Work with a local window installation pro for replacement or new construction windows.
