I called a number of glass companies and Lone Star was the only one that promised they would be out THAT DAY to put in a temporary piece of commercial plastic that would protect our home while permanent glass was being cut. Lone Star recommended that we use "laminated glass" to replace the...
Lone Star GlassThis company was only one of two glass companies willing to come out to my Midtown loft on a weekend to replace a small single pane of glass on a street-facing window located on the 4th floor. Other companies I contacted either would not book a weekend appointment or could not be bothered...
We remodelled our bathroom. Of the several providers used in this process, M.I. Glass was the best. First, they patiently came out twice to measure, as my husband and I had not conferred on how high to make the glass walls. When it was time to install, the group before them had created a...
I have used Bobbitt Glass for many years, and sent many customers to this business. Never again. A broken, tempered glass tabletop was cut to the wrong size twice, over a period of almost 2 months. Yesterday I returned the table and the glass top, telling them it was the wrong size, ...
The two technicians arrived early for our appointment, immediately explained what they needed to do, and then started working. The lamps did not have a nozzle that regulated gas appropriately leading to glass breakage. The new "maple leaf" nozzles look great and they replaced the existing...
TRU-LITE GAS PRODUCTSEvery time my kids or their friends would accidentally break one of the patterned glass panes to either side of my front door, I would always call FreeBird Glass. They were prompt and professional. It was $90 per pane, which I thought was a little high. But, they matched the glass patterns...

Klein Glass is located in Spring and we have over 50 years combined experience. We are known or our great work and prompt turn around. We do work for all kinds of contractors and remodelers. We accept cash, check, and all major credit cards.
"After spending half a day looking for a company that would install a replacement window, I found Klein Glass & Mirror. Most companies I spoke with would not install a single window - they do full home remodels. I already had a replacement window from the manufacturer and just needed installation. Jose was quick to give me an estimate (within 30 minutes) and scheduled my job for the next day pending good weather. The two installers, Ricky and Jimmy, called ahead and showed up with everything needed to do the job. It took a little over an hour to complete the work and they did a good job protecting our floor from the debris while they worked. The window looks exactly as it did before (except no crack), and they did a great job cleaning up and wiping everything down. Very reasonable prices and above average attention to detail and cleanup. Highly recommended!"

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 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.
The average cost to install glass block windows is about $710, ranging from $460 to $1,000, depending on the size and design of the window, installation type, and location. Different styles of glass blocks also impact the cost:
Clear glass blocks: $10–$30 per block
Colored glass blocks: $25–$40 per block
Acrylic glass blocks: $15–$25 per block
Wavy glass blocks: $10–$30 per block
Alpha glass blocks: $15–$25 per block
Ice glass blocks: $20–$35 per block
Diamond glass blocks: $20–$75 per block
Frosted glass blocks: $30–$35 per block
Typically, glass block windows last about 15 to 30 years, slightly less than regular windows, which last 20 to 50 years. Resealing glass blocks can help extend the lifespan of this bathroom feature. The key to ensuring that glass block windows last as long as possible is to have a professional glass block installer place them. Glass block pros will have the skills, tools, and knowledge required to install these special features into any space, noting obstacles like damaged windows or too-cramped areas during the consultation.
Luckily, glass block windows need minimal maintenance. Other than regular cleaning, the only maintenance involved in having a glass block window is inspecting for cracks every year and applying sealer to the mortar joints if the blocks are set in masonry mortar. Glass block windows hold up well against wind and moisture better than traditional windows and are not prone to rot.
