"I wish I had hired them first! I hired another company to fix my moving bowed and shearing basement walls. They were primarily a waterproofing company, but said they had the solutions to my issues. 3 months after they were complete, my walls cracked and shifted again. (Note, in the attached photos, the patchwork quilt on the walls was the OTHER company.) OBA fixed my issues the correct way. And they were great at every step. The work crew Caleb, Delontae, and Dylan were fast, efficient, and cleaned up when they were done. Caleb made sure to explain what was happening as they did the work and ask if I had questions. The work was thorough, and I feel good about it. And even better, they'll be out in 6 months to ensure everything is working as it should and make adjustments if needed."

In business since 1990, Arnolds Home Improvement is your local roofing and remodeling contractor serving Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan. We specialize in roof repair and replacement, bathroom remodeling - including our One-Day Bath remodeling services, siding, windows, and much more.
"We responded to the promotion on TV by JacuzziBathRemodels (JBR) and Arnold's was the contractor who responded to our inquiry. Arnold's representative showed up on time but was never enthusiastic about our needs to have a shower installed, just flat affect. But since they had a good rating with the BBB, we didn't mind until he emailed us the wrong contract the following day. First off, their quote was outrageous: $8,996. This for a walk-in shower without doors. Second, the contract was open-ended, said nothing that was anywhere near to being customer-focused, and included only jargon and stipulations for a roof install: Nothing about our shower. Third, it said nothing about the promotion we responded to from JBR. In other words, nothing was itemized or disclosed in the contract regarding JBR's promotion details, just Arnold's quote. Fourth, when we contacted the representation, who I won't name in this review, was suddenly defensive and responded with callous remarks when we asked for clarification. In fact, when we read some of the contract to this rep, he actually told my 73-year-old mom that she was "nitpicking". He had absolutely no regard for our concerns! (And we were ready to spend this $9,000, in cash and up front, to have the shower installed, despite the Rep's attitude!). But this Rep was nasty and drove our decision to cancel the contract that we already signed when he visited. On top of that, Arnold's cancelation policy was a loaded disclaimer and scare tactic. WOW, I guess Arnold's Home Improvement out of Toledo, Ohio has so much business that $9,000 does not matter to them. My advice for residents who live in northwest Ohio: RUN from Arnold's Home Improvement and don't look back."

"I ordered a small replacement window February 8, 2023 and was told the order would take 4-6 weeks to come in. I'm on my 8th week and the person answering the phone will only tell me, " we will call you when the order comes in". They refuse to call the manufacturer to ask when my order will be delivered. A simple phone call would rectify the situation but they refuse to do so."

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.
