"Mr. Parker responded to our inquiry within two hours. My husband texted him photos of the damaged glass in our front door. Mr. Parker quickly scheduled an appointment and rendered services. He did exceptional work, leaving our front door in stellar condition. I highly recommend Parker's Custom Stained and Etched Glass."

"Very professional.  Arrived on time.  Spent a lot of time with us talking through our options and helping us understand everything.  Answered lots of questions!  Ultimately we ended up purchasing a different house (what we really, really, really wanted to do with the house would have put us very much over budget).

"Dennis arrived on time for the measurement of the blinds, and left me to order the blinds on-line. When they arrived, I called him out for the installation. He and a helper arrived 1 hour early, while I was sleeping. Luckily, he had his cell phone, and called me to say that he was there. When I opened the door, they came in and proceeded to install the blinds. They also removed old curtains (they were too high for me to reach, due to my disability). They were efficient, and when there was a slight problem with the vertical blinds length, they were able to fix this problem with a little adjustment. They finished within an hour and disposed of the old curtains. Overall, a good job with a relatively simple job."

Glass Block questions, answered by experts

Regular cleaning with non-abrasive cleaners helps prevent buildup and maintains clarity.

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.

You can still see vaguely into some types of glass block windows at night. Although there won’t be clear definitions, passersby may still see shapes, shadows, and movement through the glass. If you want complete privacy, consider installing diamond glass block windows rather than the typical clear or wavy glass blocks.

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

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.
