We have been in the foundation, waterproofing, and drain tile business since 1961. Our other business- 'Tri State Concrete" has been installing foundations for over 50 years. Warm and Dry, LTD was started on our 51st year to provide professional basement and crawlspace waterproofing and repairs. We came to see a real need for top quality repair work for homeowners that have problems with their foundations. There are a lot of companies out there doing really shady work. We have re-repaired so many jobs that other companies have already done, which is why we decided to start this business and do it right.
"Good fast efficient,."

Family owned and operated since 1944, Wallside sells directly to the homeowner, manufacturing and installing its own products. With a factory/showroom located in Taylor, Mich., the vinyl window manufacturer services two thirds of the lower peninsula of Michigan and northwest portions of Ohio.
"Had a couple windows installed on Tues. June 20th. The screen on one was ripped, the installer said they would put a order in right away and have it out this week. There was no signoff's on work. Some of the caulk jobs around the windows are a little sub-par for my liking. Not the best quality work. Called the office for clarification on when my screen would be here this week. They had no knowledge of it, and it had to be ordered. Now it'll be July 8th before they can get out here. Had used their competitor (Hansons) for my last house. The comparison between the two is much different. Will probably go back to Hansons for the rest of the house here."

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."

Prior to founding Radiant Windows in 2001, my wife and I traveled around the country and different parts of the world designing windows, equipment, and factories for the window industry. We know windows. We are truly experts when it comes to helping people to make the right choices when deciding to purchase new windows and doors and all the little details that go with them and within their budget.
"Everything exceeded expectations. From sales to installation, the experience was great. The windows are well made and attractive. There was no sales pressure and everything was explained. The installers were awesome. Polite, courteous, and professional, they worked quickly and quietly. They were very respectful of our property and cleaned up when the job was completed."

"The contractors who came out to install our new windows were very unprofessional. They showed up and hour late from the latest time they told us with no heads up or warning. They also worked about 2 hours longer than anticipated. The biggest problem though was the hazardous mess left all around my home! Broken glass left all around the inside of my kitchen, dining area, sink, and yard! Look at the pictures! These people spoke unprofessionally at my house around my family and didn’t bother to clean the large mess left inside and around our home. The “new” windows we bought were dirty and left looking messy and smudged with caulk on the glass, screens, and siding. All around, we are very disappointed being that we payed a premium for a professional company to come out and leave this mess for my wife and I to deal with. Especially since the mess they left was dangerous!"

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.
