"I needed stucco repair work on an old chimney (and other spots). Grady was meticulous and thoughtful on what approaches and materials would work. Throughout the project they allocated sufficient time for each treatment to cure and inspected the work before proceeding to the next step. Grady started the project with no money down and only required ongoing payments for materials until the project was well underway. The final payment was due only after they did a final inspection. Total project cost was also below other bids."

"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 called Advanced glass on monday the 7th for a quote for my newly remodeled bathroom. I spoo to Sam over the phone and he gave me a quote how  much approximately it'd cost. The price was reasonable so I requested an appointment to do the measurment. after that Youness came over the next day he took the measurment and gave me the final estimate of $1175, I approved the quote and payed the deposit right away. On the 17th the installers (i guess one of them was albert) came to my house and install the glass shower door in about one hour and a half, and they told me to not use the shower for 24h. Now i'm using the enclosure and it's fine with no issues. the only thing is when i open the door, the water drops from the door, but i guess that has nothing to do with the job they did.

"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."

"We hired Paul Bender, owner of The Tile Artisan, to remodel our master bathroom and were very happy that we did. His price was competitive and his entire team was professional, courteous and hardworking. We were very pleased with the work done and with the professionalism and communication that occurred throughout the process. Paul frequently made suggestions which improved the final outcome. We are thrilled with the finished bathroom and would not hesitate to recommend the Tile Artisan!"

Glass Block questions, answered by experts

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

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

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.

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.

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.
