High-Efficiency Window Upgrades and Replacement

Even though your current windows seem fine, energy‑efficient replacements can reduce heat loss, decrease utility bills, and boost comfort without jeopardizing 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 compromising visible light. We assess orientation, local climate, and code requirements to specify glazing that fulfills ENERGY STAR targets for Burien.

Window framing enhancements matter as much as glass. We recommend insulated fiberglass, vinyl, or thermally broken aluminum frames, sealed with backer rod and low‑expansion foam to eliminate air leakage and condensation. Correct anchoring, shims, and flashing integrate units with your weather barrier, safeguarding both structure and occupants. You'll get clear performance data, precise installation timelines, and warranties consistent with manufacturer specifications.

Custom Shower Enclosures and Glass Elements

When you're enhancing your home's glass, custom shower enclosures provide precise fit, clean lines, and safe performance tailored to your space. We take precise measurements of openings, verify wall plumb, and select tempered or laminated safety glass to satisfy building codes and minimize flex. You pick frameless enclosures for reduced hardware and effortless maintenance, or semi-frameless systems for clear edges and budget control.

We design door swing clearances, hinge loading, and anchor points to suit tile, stone, or acrylic surrounds. Low-iron glass improves clarity; protective coatings reduce spotting. For privacy and style, we offer patterned interlayers and decorative etching with slip-resistant textures on thresholds. We seal with anti-mold silicone, ensure even reveals, and fine-tune sweep compression to stop leaks. Your enclosure functions, fits, and endures.

Fast Repair Services, Emergency Board‑Ups, and Safety Standards

When glass shatters, you require a fast, safe solution that stabilizes the opening and protects people and property. We come prepared with cut‑resistant gloves, eye protection, shatter‑collection tools, and fitted panels to safeguard the area. After cordoning off the area, we extract loose fragments, document the scene, and install rigid board‑ups or Temporary glazing to restore weather protection, security, and climate 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 laminated, tempered, or insulated 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.

Understanding Codes, Permits, and HOA Requirements

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

You'll get detailed Code updates related to glass placement and opening measurements. Prior to installation, we perform inspection checklists: tempered markings, fall‑prevention, safety rails, and emergency egress. During work, we maintain jobsite compliance and schedule inspections. Upon approval, we store permits for your records and future resale.

Picking the Right Glass, Hardware, and Warranties

Before ordering a single pane, we match glass types and hardware to your residence's exposures, safety zones, and performance requirements. We specify 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 provide acid‑etched or switchable solutions. In wet zones, we choose corrosion‑resistant hinges, rollers, and fasteners, then coordinate Hardware finishes with your fixtures for lasting durability and visual cohesion.

We catalog spacer type, gas fill, and sealant system to maintain warranty integrity. You will know exactly what's covered: glass breakage, seal failure, stress cracks, and finish durability. We file warranties, offer care protocols, and schedule follow‑ups, protecting your investment and safety in the long run.
