The work went well. Over the phone I gave Todd the approximate dimensions of my window that needed to be repaired and he gave me a preliminary quote for the work pending a site visit to verify everything. My home is a two story townhouse, and the window that needed to be replaced was on the back of the house on the second story. Like many townhomes, space between the back of the house and the fence was narrow and Todd was not going to be able to use a ladder to install my window.
After verifying all the dimensions, Todd went back to his shop to finalize the cost of the replacement window glass and to figure out how to work on my difficult job site. Within a day or so, Todd called me up with a way he could replace the window by renting a cherry picker to lift him up and over to the broken window. The rental of the cherry picker lift was not cheap, but it was the only way to safely get Todd to where he needed to work.
Todd met all his scheduled appointments and also provided a "on my way" message so that I was certain to be home and ready to let him get to work.
The window has been repaired for a couple of weeks and all seems well. Shortly after installation we had some torrential rains and I am happy to report that there were no issues with the window, including no leaks.
I would certainly work with All American Glass again and recommend them to friends.

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.
