Energy-Saving Window Replacement and Improvement
While your current windows seem fine, energy‑efficient replacements can cut heat loss, decrease utility bills, and enhance comfort without compromising safety. You'll obtain 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 evaluate 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 prevent air leakage and condensation. Appropriate 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 aligned with manufacturer specifications.
Personalized Shower Installations and Glass Features
While upgrading your home's glass, custom shower enclosures offer precise fit, clean lines, and safe performance customized for your space. We field-measure openings, confirm wall plumb, and select tempered or laminated safety glass to meet code and reduce flex. You select frameless enclosures for minimal hardware and simple maintenance, or semi-frameless systems for defined edges and budget control.
We engineer door swing clearances, hinge loading, and anchor points to accommodate tile, stone, or acrylic surrounds. Low-iron glass improves clarity; protective treatments minimize spotting. For visual appeal and privacy, we offer patterned interlayers and decorative etching with slip-resistant textures on thresholds. We seal with mold-resistant silicone, establish even reveals, and adjust sweep compression to stop leaks. Your enclosure fits perfectly, works flawlessly, and endures.
Fast Fix Services, Immediate Board‑Ups, and Security Standards
When glass is broken, you require a rapid, safe response that reinforces the opening and protects people and property. We arrive equipped with cut‑resistant gloves, eye protection, shatter‑collection tools, and pre-cut panels to protect the location. After isolating the area, we extract loose fragments, document conditions, and install sturdy board-ups or interim glazing to restore weather, security, and energy 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, 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.
Navigating HOA Requirements, Permits, and Codes
Because code compliance safeguards safety and resale value, we start your project by identifying the exact approvals your address requires: city permits, energy codes (WA State Energy Code), safety more info 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 commences and inspections happen. We oversee submittals, drawings, and calculations, then coordinate HOA approval, aligning design specifications with community standards to avoid delays.
We provide clear Code updates related to glass placement and opening dimensions. Prior to installation, we conduct verification checklists: tempered markings, fall‑prevention, safety rails, and emergency egress. During work, we maintain jobsite compliance and schedule inspections. Once we receive approval, we file permits for your records and future resale.
Choosing the Right Glass, Hardware, and Warranties
Prior to ordering any single pane, we align glass types and hardware to your property's exposures, safety zones, and performance requirements. We designate tempered or laminated safety glazing where code demands, then calibrate U‑factor, SHGC, and visible light. For coastal glare and crisp views, Low‑iron glass provides true color; for privacy, we provide acid‑etched or switchable alternatives. In wet zones, we select corrosion‑resistant hinges, rollers, and fasteners, then align Hardware finishes with your fixtures for lasting durability and visual cohesion.
We catalog spacer type, gas fill, and sealant system to ensure warranty integrity. You'll know what's covered: glass breakage, seal failure, stress cracks, and finish durability. We document warranties, provide care protocols, and schedule follow‑ups, securing your investment and safety over the long term.
