"This contractor was hired by my 67 year old mother. Contractor was very attentive at first. Paid for 1/2 the project up front. He then started missing a day here or there. Would not return phone calls. Then would just show up one day, work for a few hours thenhen disappear again. Sometimes for weeks at a time. He was to redo my brick fireplace and after the 3rd try, me guessing he had know idea what or how to do what I was wanting and instead of telling me this he just kept getting deeper into trouble. He then asked for additional money for the carpet. I have not heard from him since. A 7-10 day project has turned into 90+ days and it is still not completed. My aluminum outlets were replaced by him with Copper and the special glue that is to go on the wiring was omitted! FIRE HAZARD. He was to hang a ceiling fan and there was no ceiling fan support box installed. It would have fallen if he would have installed. Stay away from this contractor. I have had another contract try and contact him for my carpet that I paid for and he will not return that phone call either."

"Contacted this company three months ago. For removal of a beehive and masonry work around the chimney, the company came out twice to to review the work needed to be done, sent a contract to our company and then waited on an appointment to get the work completed. The company was unresponsive and finally scheduled the work to be completed. The contract sent reads money would be paid upon completion of the project and sent an invoice prior to the job being completed. I called this company all week, sent an email and they failed to show up for the job nor did they bother to respond to our emails and phone calls. Unprofessional and lack of communication led us to secure another contractor."

Typically, glass block windows last about 15 to 30 years, slightly less than regular windows, which last 20 to 50 years. Resealing glass blocks can help extend the lifespan of this bathroom feature. The key to ensuring that glass block windows last as long as possible is to have a professional glass block installer place them. Glass block pros will have the skills, tools, and knowledge required to install these special features into any space, noting obstacles like damaged windows or too-cramped areas during the consultation.
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
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.
The average cost to install glass block windows is about $710, ranging from $460 to $1,000, depending on the size and design of the window, installation type, and location. Different styles of glass blocks also impact the cost:
Clear glass blocks: $10–$30 per block
Colored glass blocks: $25–$40 per block
Acrylic glass blocks: $15–$25 per block
Wavy glass blocks: $10–$30 per block
Alpha glass blocks: $15–$25 per block
Ice glass blocks: $20–$35 per block
Diamond glass blocks: $20–$75 per block
Frosted glass blocks: $30–$35 per block
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.
