Quick Set, Inc.

Glass Block, Windows

About us

Quick-Set Panels was established in St. Paul, Minnesota in 1981. Using classical technique, glass blocks were laid piece by piece with a brick layer. In 1987, Quick-Set Panels started laying glass block panels down and utilizing a quick-setting mortar. This method was used exclusively until 1999. In 1999, Quick-Set Panels started building glass block panels with silicone. Silicone creates a stronger and more durable window. From 1999 until 2001, Quick-Set Panels offered both silicone and mortar glass block windows. In 2001, silicone became the primary material used by Quick Set Panels. Quick-Set Panels offers a 15 year warranty on everything used to build custom glass block windows. The warranty covers the glass block, silicone, installation, and vents.

I'd like the work to be completed as promised.
Description of Work: He inspected the basement and I ok'd work. His last communication with me was by email on 11/30/15 where he said he was going to contact my tenant at the rental home to install the windows. I found out from my tenant a few days ago he never installed the windows or contacted him

Response from Quick Set, Inc.
I needed and asked the customer to dig out the window wells to do the work. We showed up to do the work and could not complete our work due to no window wells being dug out. I told the tenant who I spoke with at the house. I then emailed you to dig the window wells out and never got a response. I am sorry about the miss communication but there was nothing I could do to install the Windows.

Overall it was a very pleasant experience. They showed up on time, explained what they were doing and got right to work. They cleaned up after themselves and left the work site very neat. It did take them longer than they estimated but as I work from home it wasn't really major issue. I would use this company again.

I was truly impressed with this no hassle job. They came and measured, and then produced the window. They returned a week or so later, removed the old window and disposed of it, and installed the new. Fast, professional, and the final results are amazing. If you have some old nasty window in a basement, this is the perfect replacement. It looks so clean and nice, the fit was perfect. I only wish I had thought to do this sooner. This company did exactly what I expected, no mistakes, problems or hassles. The final product exceeded expectations by quite a large margin. I absolutely recommend this company.

Description of Work: Everything was great besides for the actual quality of the install. Mortar was uneven and window was not completely centered in opening. I will hire again to do the other 3 basement windows I have.

Description of Work: I had four old basement windows replaced by glass block windows with screen openings. The windows look so great and allow more light into the basement without allowing a view into my home. I've shown these to a number of friends. Everyone thinks they are a great improvement.

My experience with them was good. They did it as advertised. My interaction with them was good. They are professional. They showed up as they said they would on that date. They were on time. They got right to work and then stayed until it was done. They are personable. It’s a pretty standard job. They came out, slapped off the windows and left.

We looking to put a glass block window in our bathroom, but it just turned into a big job. We would have had to remodel our whole bathroom to put in a glass block window. We decided not to do that. We called them and they came out promptly. They gave us a good bid. He came out in the middle of winter. He did it quick and he did bring some pamphlets. There's different kinds of glass block. He had different styles and options that we could use. It was a free estimate. I will call them when I decide to do it.

The installation was easy and quick. The installers were quite professional and I will use them again in the future for another window in another bathroom. My only complaint was that the caulking around the window could have been a bit neater. I ended up filling a couple of spots the next day on my own. However, this was incredibly minor and likely only due to my own perfectionism. I will definitely use this service again in the future.

Description of Work: glass block for all basement windows and bathroom window...all with air vents. |there was a mix up on the glass style..originally we wanted wavy then during the signing of the contract we decided we would prefer the clear |but the change was not made so we ended up with the wavy. long story short |probably as much our fault as theirs.

Our contractor had used Quick-Set to build custom glass block windows for our basement five years ago. We needed to get another window. I called on Sunday and left a message with my request. On Monday morning I got a call saying that they could make a match to the other windows and it would be done no later than Wednesday morning. I got a call that the window was finished Monday afternoon and I could pick it up anytime the next day. I was there to pick up the window when they opened (at an amazingly early time of 7:30) and it was perfect. The window was an identical match to the others.
