Key Takeaways

High-Efficiency Window Replacement for Every Room

Before drafts creep in off of Puget Sound, organize your energy-efficient window replacement room by room to reduce heat loss and manage glare. In living areas, select double- or triple-pane IGUs with argon, warm-edge spacers, and spectrally selective low-E upgrades tuned for west-facing afternoon sun. For bedrooms, emphasize low SHGC on south and west elevations and quiet-laminate choices along Ambaum traffic. Kitchens require tempered units near ranges and high VT to maintain task lighting.

Bathrooms demand privacy glass with corrosion-resistant hardware and sealed vapor seals. For basements, opt for composite frames to prevent moisture and meet egress standards. Evaluate attic glazing in skylights: laminated, curb-mounted, and low-e to minimize summer heat gain. In coastal regions, select DP-rated frames, stainless fasteners, and correctly flashed nail fins.

Custom Shower Enclosures That Enhance Your Bathroom

Upgrade your bathroom with a custom shower enclosure designed for Puget Sound homes: frameless 3/8"–1/2" laminated or tempered glass, low-iron for authentic color, and hardware in marine-grade 316 stainless or solid brass. You'll get precise field measurements, tight reveals, and properly pitched sills to shed water. Frameless doors swing smoothly on self-centering hinges, with clearances set for vapor containment and code-required egress.

Select patterned glass for privacy—reeded, rain, or satin-etch—without compromising light. We seal with anti-mildew silicone and continuous magnetic strikes to limit leakage. Thresholds, sweeps, and clamps are sized for your tile layout, niches, and benches. In the coastal air of Burien, we spec anti-corrosion fasteners and through-glass mounts. Expect crisp edges, polished cutouts, and ADA-compliant handles when required.

Mirrors, Glass Railings, and Specialty Pieces Tailored to You

After we refine your shower enclosure, we bring that same attention to mirrors, glass railings, and custom pieces throughout your Burien home. You get optics-grade beveled mirrors custom-fit to tight walls, sloped ceilings, or vanity spans, with crisp edges and secure, low-profile mounting. For stairs, balconies, and decks, we fabricate frameless glass railings with Burien Glass Repair Services building-code-approved tempered panels, fastened to existing posts or new shoe bases, resisting wind, salt air, and daily use.

Require a focal piece? We create custom shelves, partitions, and backsplashes in tinted, clear, or low-iron glass, including decorative etching for house numbers, privacy bands, or logo marks. Every cut, polish, and hole location aligns to your site conditions, guaranteeing long-term stability, safety, and sightlines across your Burien property.

Our Approach: From Initial Consultation to Pristine Installation

Though your goals drive the scope, our process ensures it precise and predictable. We start with an on-site initial assessment across Burien—confirm openings, substrate, plumb, and ventilation. We capture measurements to the 1/16", mark code-clearances, and highlight obstacles like uneven sills or tile reveals. You'll receive choices for glass type, edge profiles, and hardware finishes that fit local conditions.

Following this, we validate specs, arrange for laminated or tempered glass, and perform timeline planning based on supplier lead times and your availability. We coordinate permits when needed and prepare the site to limit dust. On install day, we test-fit, shim for level, set panes with clips or structural silicone, and seal moisture-prone areas. Last checks include swing/slide testing, gasket integrity, and cleanup. We finalize with payment and care instructions.
