"Their price was good, not the cheapest, but also not the most expensive. Adrian was great at getting back to me and scheduling. The part I was most unsatisfied with was his and his crews professionalism and quality of work. The first day when his crew showed up to take old tile out they left drops of white water down my stairs. Now, they did clean that up, but only after I mentioned it later. They used foul language, left garbage in my garbage, and played loud music. This is partially my fault since I was not home during that portion and my teenagers after school were working on homework, but didn't feel comfortable saying anything. In regards to the garbage, it wouldn't be so bad except the small can became full. When working in the master bathroom they left grout all over the handrail, let a ton of grout go down the drain and it dried. The window surrounding the shower in my bathroom was clearly not wiped down after they were done with their work. They broke a tile on a spot they were not even working. They tried to deny that they broke it, but did end up fixing it. I had to have Adrian come back twice to fix sloppy work on the grout. There was air bubbles and missing grout entirely. After we paid him, I noticed outside the bathroom window was this red substance all on the outside of the window, down the outside of my house. To top it off they ruined the boxes of tiles as they were opening them and opened unnecessary boxes, therefore making it impossible to return unused tiles. Now, I take responsibility for this next part, but I made an assumption that the expert would let me know if I needed to do something. Aidan never told me I should have picked out new hardware before he put the tiles on and now we can't update them since it only fits certain kinds. I would not hire this company again, especially if you are wanting high quality work. Maybe if you have a rental."

I initially contacted MS Railing through Angie's List and Serge was quick to respond. Because Serge needed more details we continued to communicate through texting so I could send him pics of the studs in the wall so he would know it would hold the heavy glass door. I was told (by several glass companies) that they wouldn't come out to measure until the tile was installed. However, Serge did give me a rough estm via text just so we'd have an idea of the cost. As soon as the tile was installed I texted Serge about coming out to measure to give us a solid quote. He came out the very next day and was punctual! We also got other estm for the glass from companies off of AL as well. What set MS Railing apart from the rest was the respect that Serge gave by taking off his shoes when he came into our house, MS Railing also had the lowest price and the quickest install turn around time (a week and a couple of days) compared to the other estms we received (3 weeks). The actual estm Serge gave us before he left was even lower than his rough estm he sent me via text! Since we were still waiting on a company to send us their quote, just to make sure, so we waited to let Serge know we wanted to go with his company to install the glass. When we finally got the other quote it was much higher so, I texted Serge to let him know (that was on a Fri evening), I was concerned maybe we should've waited until Mon morning to tell him. However, he did respond right away even though it was after hours. That following Tues I texted Serge to see about our order. I didn't need to worry b/c Serge had remembered and in fact on Weds he texted me to say the glass was ready!! They also had available an apt for 10 am apt spot the next day or I'd have to wait until the following Mon. I chose the 10 am appt.! The guys showed up on time, installed the glass within the hour and cleaned up! We have not used the shower yet as we are still adding some new fixtures and all to the bathroom but we love the look of the doors! We did pay extra for the glass stain protection that was applied to the glass before it was installed. The protection last 5 yrs and the price that was quoted was well below the other companies and worth the extra cost to us. A clear "plastic" strip was attached to the bottom of the shower door to help keep any water from coming out. I was told we could take it off but you can't really even see it plus it's nice to have the extra protection against any potential water that may get splashed onto the door and out onto the floor. Again we are super happy with the service that MS Railing provided and the glass looks wonderful!

"I sent an email to Kenny Anderson and told him what I needed.  Angela came to the house and made notes of what I wanted done, took measuresments, pictures and made sketches   Kenny called the next day and we discussed exactly what I wanted done and the materials that I wanted.  The start day for the job was July 11, 2011.  John and another worker came to the house on time and ready to work.  They were working under adverse conditions as we were having a problem getting the power on.  They were basically working in a dark cave, but since they are professionals they knew how to hande the situation.  The tub was installed and the cement backer board was installled.  The next day Jesse arrived to start the tile work in the surround.  The whole job was completed midday Friday.  The tile surround is perfection.  I gave them a sample of the tile that we had used on a previous house as a color reference.  The tile Anderson's brought out was perfect.  It was a better tile and color than the one that I gave them.  Jesse is a master with tile.  The surround is absolutely beautiful.
The window is a large window, approximately 8 feet wiide.  One half of it had what looked like a beebe hole in it.  It is on order and will be replaced when the new one comes in.
Anderson's workers are professional all the way.  They have worked together for years and are in sync when they are working on a job.
Thanks Kenny, you came through again."

Glass Block Windows questions, answered by experts

Options include tempered, laminated, and tinted glass for various needs.

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

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.

Glass walls are more expensive overall than their brick or drywall counterparts. However, if you need walls for a building with more than two or three stories, glass walls are the more budget-friendly option.

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.
