"This was a very involved plaster repair and remediation job, in a very old house. Grady is the only person (or company) who was willing to take on the job and drive all the way from Pennsylvania to our home in Northern Virginia. There are very few people who do this kind of work anymore (we really searched) and he is an expert in his field. We needed to work around his schedule, because he is in demand in the tri-state area, so it took awhile to schedule the work to begin... but it was worth it."

"Overall the process was pretty painless. My bathroom remodel had been dragging on due to contractor issues so I was ready to get things finished up. Chris came over with another employee (who actually installed the glass later on) and they took measurements. We discussed options and the fact that I wanted the glass to go higher then the average height (72") due to the fact the regular shower head was installed at an abnormal height. We reach a compromise at 78" which actually turned out really nice (it's flush with the top of the door jam) and the fact that the shower door was 30" wide made for a really heavy piece of glass so I'm glad they still got it up the stairs!
It took about a week to get the glass in and that fell over Thanksgiving so had to wait another week to get it installed. Installation took a couple of hours. Shower looks beautiful with brushed nickel finish hardware. I also got the Cardinal 10 protection so hopefully that holds up to keeping the shower glass clean(er).
The main reason I went with this company was that they had one of the lower bids and they only use hardware on the sides of the glass and not the bottom to hold it. You get a really clean look all around the shower with less hardware. Also they didn't have to put any holes in the travertine stone.
Great job, thanks!"

"I am very happy with the work performed by Advanced Glass. We solicited multiple bids, they were the lowest cost. Also, they were very helpful with design ideas (what works and does not). Install was on time (3 hours); very nice work. Cleanup and low noise. Excellent! Now we have a very fancy glass shower. Wife is very pleased and we saved several hundred dollars over other other bud prices."

"oThis was a great experience start to finish. The price is solid, beating out my insurance company's provider by a good $80 - $100, the work was scheduled and performed quickly and the windshield looks good.
I used the $25 off coupon I printed  from Angies list without a problem, which brought the cost from 255 down to 230.
My insurance company's placed wanted $298 plus tax plus $29.95 to come out
to me to fix it. Royal did all that for the flat $255.
Definitely would use them again if I needed to replace any of my car's glass.

"The shower door is beautiful! They were prompt, professional and responsive. And, they really stand by their work. They originally installed a small chrome connector at the bottom of the door which was aesthetically pleasing, but after some time the door had some slight movement. River Glass Designs came right back out, removed the connector and installed a different type which is guaranteed not to move at all. We couldn't be happier and definitely recommend this company."

Glass Block questions, answered by experts

Most installations take 1-3 days, depending on the number of blocks and customization requirements.

Their thickness depends on application, but most glass walls are typically 3/8 to 3/4 of an inch thick. Although it’s not as common, single panes of glass can also be 1 inch thick.

Glass block mortar is the best choice for glass block window units. It is specifically formulated for glass block window installation. Glass block mortar is usually a mixture of Portland cement, sand, and special chemicals. It is a white mortar that is applicable inside and outside your home. Do not use regular tile mortar because it may not have the binding strength and flexibility required for glass block windows.

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. 

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.
