"Commonwealth was very professional and did a great job with our bathroom.  It was only about a week from the time we first contacted them to the start of work.  The workers were courteous and did a great job of cleaning up after the work was finished.  The bathroom looks great and is exactly what we wanted."

"We met with several contractors before choosing Creative Bath & Kitchen.  We needed someone with a vision to change the layout of our kitchen.  Eric came  up with by far the best option.  He has a great vision, and was extremely creative in the design he came up with, as well as helping us choose all of our kitchen cabinets, counters, tile, paint, fixtures.  The kitchen turned out exactly how we expected, and we are very detail-oriented people.  The process did take longer than expected, HOWEVER, I have worked with so many contractors for residential and commercial jobs, and the process always takes longer than expected.  I certainly would not hold that against them.  We are truly happy with our creative and beautiful kitchen, and give all of the credit to Eric for having the vision for the major layout change.  Thanks Les & Eric!

"We called Machen for an estimate to tear off our old roof on our house and detached garage. They were very responsive and Jodi even came out on a Saturday to give us an estimate. He was very knowledgeable regarding the materials and products we needed, and we were impressed that he actually climbed the roof to take all of the measurements, where other contractors we had contacted did not. The estimate we received was fair considering that the roof deck would need wrapped and the amount of ice guard we needed. Jodi and his team were on time every day and got right to work. They took their time on the job and were very conscientious about the work performed to ensure it was done correctly. Jodi takes a lot of pride in ensuring the job site remains neat and takes a lot of care to ensure they thoroughly clean up before leaving for the day. We ran into heavy rain halfway through the project and Jodi even came out on the weekend to ensure that the roof was water tight before the rain hit. The new roof looks great and we are very pleased with the end result!"

"The work was very professionally completed. The floors and stairs hardwood elevated the feel of the entire house. Contractors did a great job of prepping and cleaning up after themselves. Also, the owner was always reachable by text or phone. Good contractor."

"They did pretty good. There were a couple of fumble here and there. They did not organize getting the breeze taken away very well. They did the work 2 or 3 weeks ago and I think it was $4800. They will be doing the interior of the kitchen and the cabinets."

"Tom at Spectrum Renovations came out in the evening to give an estimate for overhead lighting install. His was one of 3 estimates I received, and he offered the lowest rate. I had several follow up questions later in the week and he was always quick with an answer. He was able to schedule the project just a day or so after I approved his bid. He and an associate completed all the work in 1 day and were very respectful, did not make any messes in the house whatsoever. I had some concerns early in the project that things might be a little more involved than I had anticipated, but they were able to work things out very nicely."

Glass Block questions, answered by experts

Glass block windows aren’t fire hazards; fire-rated glass block windows can increase your home’s fire safety. Modern glass blocks are made with materials that can resist high temperatures and prevent fire spread. Most offer a 45-minute fire rating, while some increase it to two hours. Compared to the typical 20 to 90 minute rating for a double-pane window, glass block can increase your home’s safety in the event of a fire.

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. 

Options include tempered, laminated, and tinted glass for various needs.

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.

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.
