Energy-Efficient Window Replacement and Improvement

Even though your current windows look satisfactory, energy‑efficient replacements can cut heat loss, reduce 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 lower U‑factor and solar heat gain without sacrificing visible light. We analyze 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 vinyl, fiberglass, or thermally broken aluminum frames, sealed with backer rod and low‑expansion foam to eliminate air leakage and condensation. Correct anchoring, shims, and flashing connect units with your weather barrier, preserving both structure and occupants. We provide clear performance data, precise installation timelines, and warranties matching manufacturer specifications.

Bespoke Shower Systems and Glass Elements

When you're enhancing your home's glass, custom shower enclosures deliver precise fit, clean lines, and safe performance designed for your space. We carefully measure openings, check wall plumb, and select tempered or laminated safety glass to satisfy building codes and reduce flex. You pick frameless enclosures for reduced hardware and effortless maintenance, or semi-frameless systems for clear edges and budget control.

We calculate door swing clearances, hinge loading, and anchor points to fit tile, stone, or acrylic surrounds. Low-iron glass improves clarity; protective treatments minimize spotting. For aesthetics and privacy, we feature 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 perfectly, works flawlessly, and endures.

Fast Restoration Work, Emergency Board‑Ups, and Protection Standards

When glass is broken, you require a fast, safe solution that secures the breach and shields people and belongings. We arrive outfitted with cut‑resistant gloves, eye protection, shatter‑collection tools, and custom-sized panels to safeguard the area. After cordoning off the area, we eliminate loose shards, record the situation, and install sturdy board-ups or interim glazing to restore weather protection, security, and climate control.

We provide you with 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, child/pet zones, and alarm sensors. You leave with a stabilized opening and a confirmed follow‑up plan.

Handling HOA Requirements, Permits, and Codes

Because code compliance safeguards safety and resale value, we commence your project by outlining the exact approvals your address needs: city permits, energy codes (WA 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 set Permit timelines so you know when work begins and inspections take place. We process submittals, drawings, and calculations, then coordinate HOA approval, aligning design details with community standards to eliminate delays.

You'll get comprehensive Code updates concerning glass placement and opening dimensions. Before installation, we conduct inspection checklists: tempered markings, fall‑prevention, safety rails, and emergency egress. While performing work, we ensure jobsite compliance and schedule inspections. Upon approval, we archive permits for your records and future resale.

Selecting the Right Glass, Hardware, and Warranties

Before we order a single pane, we match glass types and hardware to your home's exposures, safety zones, and performance objectives. We designate 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 options. In wet zones, we select corrosion‑resistant hinges, rollers, and fasteners, then coordinate Hardware finishes with your fixtures for durability and 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 record warranties, offer care protocols, and schedule follow‑ups, safeguarding your investment and safety in the long run.
