Energy-Efficient Window Replacement and Improvement

Even if your current windows appear adequate, energy‑efficient replacements can reduce heat loss, lower utility bills, and boost comfort without jeopardizing safety. You'll obtain measurable performance by combining Low‑E upgrades with gas fills and warm‑edge spacers to lower U‑factor and solar heat gain without sacrificing visible light. We analyze orientation, local climate, and code requirements to specify glazing that satisfies ENERGY STAR targets for Burien.

The framing around your windows is just as critical as the glass itself. We advise insulated vinyl, thermally broken aluminum, or fiberglass frames, sealed with backer rod and low‑expansion foam to prevent air leakage and condensation. Correct anchoring, shims, and flashing incorporate units with your weather barrier, safeguarding both structure and occupants. We provide clear performance data, precise installation timelines, and warranties matching manufacturer specifications.

Personalized Shower Enclosures and Glass Components

As you upgrade your home's glass, custom shower enclosures offer precise fit, clean lines, and safe performance customized for your space. We take precise measurements of openings, verify wall plumb, and designate tempered or laminated safety glass to meet code and minimize flex. You select frameless enclosures for less hardware and simple maintenance, or semi-frameless systems for defined edges and budget control.

We calculate door swing clearances, hinge loading, and anchor points to fit tile, stone, or acrylic surrounds. Low-iron glass enhances visual clarity; protective coatings limit water spots. For aesthetics and privacy, we offer patterned interlayers and decorative etching with slip-resistant textures on thresholds. We seal with mold-resistant silicone, ensure even reveals, and regulate sweep compression to prevent leaks. Your enclosure fits, functions, and lasts.

Quick Repair Services, Urgent Board‑Ups, and Protection Standards

When glass is broken, you require a rapid, safe response that secures the breach and safeguards occupants and assets. We show up equipped with cut‑resistant gloves, eye protection, shatter‑collection tools, and measured panels to protect the location. After isolating the area, we clear loose pieces, document the scene, and install solid board-ups or temporary glass to restore weather resistance, security, and thermal control.

You receive clear timelines: triage within hours, followed by precise measurements for replacement. For storm damage, we assess frame plumb, seal integrity, and hardware alignment, then recommend insulated, tempered, or laminated glass matched to performance specs. We anchor boards to structural members only, preserve drainage paths, and label hazards. Our technicians verify safe egress, pet/child zones, and alarm sensors. You leave with a stabilized opening and a confirmed follow‑up plan.

Understanding Building Permits, Codes, and HOA Rules

Since code compliance safeguards safety and resale value, we start your project by mapping the exact approvals your address demands: city permits, energy codes (Washington State Energy Code), safety glazing standards (tempered/laminated near doors, wet areas, and low sills), egress dimensions, and wind/seismic requirements. We verify scope, assign responsibilities, and publish permit timelines so you know when work begins and inspections take place. We process submittals, drawings, and calculations, then coordinate HOA approval, aligning design elements with community standards to prevent delays.

You'll get clear Code updates concerning glass placement and opening measurements. Prior to installation, we run Inspection checklists: tempered markings, fall‑prevention, safety rails, and emergency egress. Throughout work, we maintain jobsite compliance and schedule inspections. Upon approval, we archive permits for your records and future resale.

Choosing the Right Glass, Hardware, and Warranties

Before ordering a single pane, we match glass types and hardware to your home's exposures, safety zones, and performance requirements. We select tempered or laminated safety glazing where code requires, then calibrate U‑factor, SHGC, and visible light. For coastal glare and clear views, Low‑iron glass delivers true color; for privacy, we offer acid‑etched or switchable options. In wet zones, we choose corrosion‑resistant hinges, rollers, and fasteners, then match Hardware finishes with your fixtures for lasting durability and visual cohesion.

We document spacer type, gas fill, and sealant system to guarantee warranty integrity. You'll be informed about what's covered: glass breakage, seal failure, stress cracks, and finish durability. We document warranties, supply care protocols, and schedule follow‑ups, securing your investment and safety in the long run.
