"I don’t often do reviews. I found trying to research replacement windows online to be quite the chore and I hope to help guide others if they are in a similar situation. I did a lot of research into window brands. I now know more about windows then I ever wanted to. Once you were able to compare apples to apples by brand name and model numbers a few things came to light for me. All window manufacturers think they are the best. Lifetime warranties are not lifetime in many cases (You must read the fine print). Installation matters a lot. Service after the sale also matters a lot. I decided to get 3 quotes including Window World as they seem to be the benchmark for pricing everywhere. Not only was Hometown Windows prices competitive, the window they offered was better than most, had a real lifetime warranty including glass breakage and had experienced installers. I eliminated one installer because the windows he offered didn’t have true lifetime warranties (he said he would honor it for life but I like knowing the manufacturer will stand behind their products). I eliminated WW because of the great detail and service Hometown Windows gave me in the bidding process and I liked the product offered at Hometown Windows more. I liked that the owner Jimmy would answer the phone when I called. He also answered my emails quickly. I had a lot of questions and I appreciated him getting me every answer I wanted. Some people may not like that he is a smaller company compared to WW. I do. I like that the owner is involved in the process. There were a few very minor things that needed to be addressed after the install and he came out himself quickly to take care of the problem. That is a service level I really appreciate. The installation crew was also fantastic. They were fast and clean. They had a great eye for detail. The windows have been in for about two months now and everything is great so far. I am very happy and would recommend Hometown Windows to anyone. I will do my best update my review if something ever changes."

"It is with deep satisfaction that I recommend Grady?s Painting and Plastering & Construction. Mr. George Grady is a skilled craftsman. He was hired to correct long neglected and extensive masonry and window issues on a large, beautiful Presbyterian Church built in the Civil War era in Philadelphia. The property was neglected with only minimal maintenance performed over the last 40+ years. The building was in severe decline and in need of stabilization and restoration on many fronts. Cracked ledge plates were chipped out and reestablished, internal walls damaged by leakage were broken out and repaired, brickwork was repointed and in severe cases reestablished to original strength and beauty. Leaks around the base of the building were addressed to stabilize deterioration of the foundation. Large rotted window sills under beautiful stained glass windows were restored after significant masonry reestablishment due to water damage under the rotted out sills. Broken and missing stained glass windows are in the process of repair and replacement. The process started with new metal frames cast by Mr. Grady. The new frames will hold clear painted replications of the original stained glass, also crafted by Mr. Grady. Regular windows all around the church and manse were also repaired and restored. Roof leaks were accurately identified and repaired. A sagging plaster ceiling has been torn out and restored. All this work was done by Mr. Grady alone or with an occasional helper. He worked with care, expertise and respect for the original structure. The results far exceeded our expectations and have injected new life into a building on the brink. This building, owned by the Presbytery of Philadelphia, now houses a new urban ministry in a newly gentrifying area of the city. We are happy to have had the good fortune to be connected to Grady's Painting and Plastering & Construction"

"Many thanks to Robbie Pierce for quality repair on the sliding glass door. I have to help my mom in Roanoke long distance from another city. Robbie responded to a sudden request for help within the next day! His honesty and expert repair has put my mind at ease for my elderly mother. I am also grateful to Angie's List, where I found this company!"
"I am extremely happy with AJ's service, start to finish. We initially reached out for an estimate at the beginning of 2015. A representative came to our house to explain all the different products as well as pricing and timing. I had reached out to 2 other companies before hand but was not comfortable their high pressure selling. AJ was very patient with us regarding our timing and budget. I received an estimate on the spot and was able to take my time to review and get back to them. We scheduled the work for May and was able to have 7 Windows removed and replaced in only a few hours. We are very impressed with the quick respond time, professionalism and quality of work including cleanup. We plan on using AJ to replace the remaining Windows as well as a sliding glass door in early 2016. "

Glass block windows come in various patterns and styles that offer privacy and unique aesthetics. Frosted or textured glass diffuses light and enhances privacy. Wave-pattern glass blocks imitate ocean waves with flowing lines. Ice-glass blocks resemble cracked ice. Fluted glass blocks feature parallel vertical grooves, adding texture and depth. Clear glass blocks, similar to glass Coke bottles, offer transparency with some distortion and may have smooth surfaces or subtle textures, adding visual interest.
Yes, you can hire someone to hang a mirror in your home if you’re unable to tackle the job yourself. You can search for nearby mirror installers, but often, your best bet is a local handyperson. If you’re having other work done in the same room, such as plumbing, drywall, or electrical, those contractors are likely able to help hang the mirror as well—no need to hire someone else.
Wall-to-wall mirrors have fallen out of popularity in recent years and have several drawbacks. They take up a lot of space, which can overwhelm small bathrooms. If you like the look, a wall of reflective medicine cabinets can add storage. Just keep in mind that a wall of mirrors requires more maintenance because smudges and splashes are more visible than on a wall.
You can purchase standard mirrors up to 98 by 80 inches or larger custom mirrors. However, larger mirrors often need to comprise more than one piece of glass.
Some stained glass window pieces could have significant value depending on their artistic and historical impact. Stained glass windows dating back to the 1800s or early 1900s may be worth $2,000 to over $150,000, particularly for prestigious brands like Tiffany. But most stained glass used in residential settings will not have exponential value, particularly if the stained glass is a more modern reproduction of classic styles.
