Energy-Saving Window Upgrades and Replacement

While your current windows seem fine, energy‑efficient replacements can decrease heat loss, decrease utility bills, and enhance comfort without sacrificing safety. You'll gain measurable performance by combining Low‑E upgrades with gas fills and warm‑edge spacers to reduce U‑factor and solar heat gain without sacrificing visible light. We evaluate orientation, local climate, and code requirements to specify glazing that fulfills ENERGY STAR targets for Burien.

Glass is only part of the equation—window framing enhancements are equally important. We recommend insulated fiberglass, vinyl, or thermally broken aluminum frames, sealed with backer rod and low‑expansion foam to prevent air leakage and condensation. Proper anchoring, shims, and flashing integrate units with your weather barrier, safeguarding both structure and occupants. You'll receive clear performance data, precise installation timelines, and warranties consistent with manufacturer specifications.

Personalized Shower Surrounds and Glass Components

When you're enhancing your home's glass, custom shower enclosures deliver precise fit, clean lines, and safe performance designed for your space. We take precise measurements of openings, confirm wall plumb, and designate tempered or laminated safety glass to meet code and reduce flex. You select frameless enclosures for reduced hardware and easy maintenance, or semi-frameless systems for defined edges and budget control.

We design door swing clearances, hinge loading, and anchor points to fit tile, stone, or acrylic surrounds. Low-iron glass improves clarity; protective coatings limit water spots. For style and privacy, we feature patterned interlayers and decorative etching with slip-resistant textures on thresholds. We seal with mold-inhibiting silicone, create even reveals, and calibrate sweep compression to prevent leaks. Your enclosure functions, fits, and endures.

Rapid Restoration Work, Urgent Board‑Ups, and Security Standards

When glass shatters, you require a fast, safe solution that reinforces the opening and shields people and belongings. We arrive equipped with cut‑resistant gloves, eye protection, shatter‑collection tools, and measured panels to secure the premises. After isolating the area, we clear loose pieces, record the situation, and install rigid boarding or temporary glazing to restore weather, security, and energy control.

You get 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, protect drainage paths, and label hazards. Our technicians verify safe egress, child/pet zones, and alarm sensors. You leave with a stabilized opening and a confirmed follow‑up plan.

Managing Codes, Permits, and HOA Requirements

Because code compliance protects safety and resale value, we commence your project by outlining the exact approvals your address demands: city permits, energy codes (WA State Energy Code), safety glazing standards (tempered/laminated near doors, wet areas, and low sills), egress dimensions, and wind/seismic requirements. We establish scope, assign responsibilities, and set permit timelines so you know when work starts and inspections take place. We handle submittals, drawings, and calculations, then coordinate HOA approval, aligning design elements with community standards to minimize delays.

We provide clear Code updates impacting glass placement and opening sizes. Before installation, we run inspection checklists: tempered markings, fall‑prevention, safety rails, and emergency egress. Throughout work, we maintain jobsite compliance and schedule inspections. Once we receive approval, we maintain permits for your records and future resale.

Picking the Right Glass, Hardware, and Warranties

Prior to ordering any single pane, we pair glass types and hardware to your property's exposures, safety zones, and performance requirements. We designate tempered or laminated safety glazing where code mandates, then calibrate U‑factor, SHGC, and visible light. For coastal glare and clear views, Low‑iron glass delivers true color; for privacy, we supply acid‑etched or switchable options. In wet zones, we specify corrosion‑resistant hinges, rollers, and fasteners, then align Hardware finishes with your fixtures for cohesion and durability.

We document spacer type, gas fill, and sealant system to maintain warranty integrity. You'll understand what's covered: glass breakage, seal failure, stress cracks, and finish durability. We record warranties, deliver care protocols, and schedule follow‑ups, protecting your investment and safety in the long run.
