I got a quote from Jeff Spurio at West Side Glass Block because I was so thrilled with the four glass block windows that the company installed. I had obtained other quotes on replacement windows, but what cinched the deal was when Jeff sent the window installer, Bob Gerk, Jr., to obtain measurements and answer my questions. My house had some unusual windows, and after talking to Bob, I was certain that he and his associate, Corey, were the right people to install the replacements. It is absolutely amazing how these new windows have transformed the look of the house (and the energy efficiency, too). Bob is a true professional and did a fabulous job. I highly recommend these windows and especially Bob Gerk, Jr. as installer.
Description of Work: Replacement of three existing double-hung windows and one casement window with privacy glass. The replacement windows are Polaris Ultraweld.

The salesman came over at the appointed time, gave us an estimate which was reasonable, set a time for the work to be done. The worker arrived on the appointed date on time and did the work. The worker was very, very sloppy in performing the work. He tracked up and left a trail of cement from the front door way down to the basement. In addition, he stained my driveway with the cement used to replace the glass block because he did not take any care what-so-ever in mixing the cement on my driveway. Very sloppy and the driveway is stained. I tried to clean it off but it didn't come off. I would not hire this company again.

This company's overall performance was excellent. Jeff Spurio came out to do the measuring and estimate. He arrived on time, was courteous and not pushy. He inspired confidence in West Side to do the job skillfully and with very good materials. The installer (Stan) arrived on the right day/time. He went right to work, seemed very skilled and organized with his removal and installation process. The windows are well caulked all around and very neatly done. Stan cleaned up his work areas too. He was very courteous and pleasant when I praised the job he did. The new windows reflect sunlight into the once dark basement without sacrificing privacy and allow fresh air to be circulated as well. I am so glad I had this done; worth every cent of the reasonable cost.
Description of Work: Removed six old original rusty basement windows and installed six vented glass block windows. The old windows were taken away by West Side Glass. Surprisingly, there were no old broken glass pieces to clean up either.

They came on time and did the job. They re-caulked another window that they were not installing. They were accommodating. I am physically not able to see the work to grade quality, but assume they did a good job.

Jeff, the sales rep, was extremely knowledgeable, polite and professional. He was patient in answering my questions and provided me with options and considerations (since these weren't typical windows). The installers did a terrific job, and I've received many compliments on their work and how great the windows look. This was not an easy job, but they worked hard and didn't complain. The company provided quality windows and followed through on their promises.
Description of Work: Replaced four old windows with glass block, two of which were in a garage and two in a laundry room (one was vented).

TODD WAS VERY HELPFUL IN DETERMINING WHAT TYPES OF WINDOWS (VENTS OR NOT) SHOULD GO WHERE, WORKED DILIGENTLY, AND CLEANED UP HIS WORK AREA WELL. THE PRICE OF THE JOB WAS CONSISTENT WITH OTHER ESTIMATES. THE WINDOWS LOOK GREAT.
