High-Efficiency Window Replacement and Upgrades
Even if your current windows seem fine, energy‑efficient replacements can cut heat loss, decrease utility bills, and enhance comfort without compromising safety. You'll gain measurable performance by combining Low‑E upgrades with gas fills and warm‑edge spacers to minimize U‑factor and solar heat gain without losing visible light. We assess orientation, local climate, and code requirements to specify glazing that meets ENERGY STAR targets for Burien.
Window framing enhancements matter as much as glass. We suggest 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 incorporate units with your weather barrier, preserving structure and occupants. You'll receive clear performance data, precise installation timelines, and warranties matching manufacturer specifications.
Bespoke Shower Systems and Glass Components
While upgrading 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, check wall plumb, and select tempered or laminated safety glass to comply with regulations and minimize flex. You pick frameless enclosures for minimal hardware and easy maintenance, or semi-frameless systems for distinct edges and budget control.
We calculate door swing clearances, hinge loading, and anchor points to suit tile, stone, or acrylic surrounds. Low-iron glass improves clarity; protective treatments minimize spotting. For aesthetics and privacy, we provide patterned interlayers and decorative etching with slip-resistant textures on thresholds. We seal with anti-mold silicone, establish even reveals, and fine-tune sweep compression to stop leaks. Your enclosure fits perfectly, works flawlessly, and endures.
Swift Fix Services, Immediate Board‑Ups, and Protection Standards
When glass shatters, you require a fast, safe solution that stabilizes the gap and safeguards occupants and assets. We come prepared with cut‑resistant gloves, eye protection, shatter‑collection tools, and measured panels to secure the premises. After containing the space, 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 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.
Handling Codes, Permits, and HOA Requirements
Because code compliance protects safety and resale value, we initiate your project by determining the exact approvals your address demands: city permits, energy codes (WA State Energy Code), safety glazing rules (tempered/laminated near doors, wet areas, and low sills), egress dimensions, and wind/seismic requirements. We confirm scope, assign responsibilities, and establish Permit timelines so you know when work starts and inspections happen. We handle submittals, drawings, and calculations, then coordinate HOA approval, aligning design details with community standards to eliminate delays.
You'll receive transparent Code updates impacting glass placement and opening measurements. Prior to installation, we perform Inspection checklists: tempered markings, fall‑prevention, safety rails, and emergency egress. Throughout work, we maintain jobsite compliance and schedule inspections. After approval, we file 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 objectives. We select tempered or laminated safety glazing where code demands, then fine-tune 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 solutions. In wet zones, we select corrosion‑resistant hinges, rollers, and fasteners, then align Hardware finishes with your fixtures for durability and cohesion.
We catalog spacer type, gas fill, and sealant system to ensure warranty integrity. You'll understand 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 long‑term.
