Main Points
Energy-Saving Window Replacement for Every Room
Before cold drafts arrive off Puget Sound, plan your energy-efficient window replacement for each room to reduce heat loss and regulate glare. In living spaces, 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, prioritize low SHGC on south and west elevations and quiet-laminate alternatives along Ambaum traffic. Kitchens require tempered units near ranges and high VT to sustain task lighting.
Bathrooms need privacy glass with rust-resistant hardware and secure vapor seals. For basements, select composite frames to prevent moisture and meet egress standards. Assess attic glazing in skylights: laminated, curb-mounted, and low-e to reduce summer heat gain. In coastal zones, opt for DP-rated frames, stainless fasteners, and properly flashed nail fins.
Tailored Shower Enclosures That Enhance Your Bathroom
Transform your bathroom with a custom shower enclosure tailored to Puget Sound homes: frameless 3/8"–1/2" heat-treated or laminated glass, low-iron for true color, and hardware in corrosion-resistant 316 stainless or solid brass. You'll get precise field measurements, tight reveals, and properly pitched sills to shed water. Frameless doors operate smoothly on self-centering hinges, with clearances set for moisture control and code-required egress.
Opt for patterned glass for privacy—reeded, rain, or satin-etch—without sacrificing light. We seal with mildew-resistant silicone and continuous magnetic strikes to reduce leakage. Clamps, sweeps, and thresholds are sized for your tile layout, niches, and benches. In Burien's coastal air, we specify anti-corrosion fasteners and through-glass mounts. Expect clean edges, polished cutouts, and ADA-compliant handles as necessary.
Mirrors, Glass Railings, and Specialty Pieces Tailored to You
When we complete your shower enclosure, we deliver identical precision for mirrors, glass railings, and custom pieces throughout your Burien home. You get optical-quality beveled mirrors tailored to tight walls, sloped ceilings, or vanity spans, with sharp edges and secure, low-profile mounting. For stairs, balconies, and decks, we craft frameless glass railings with code-certified tempered panels, fastened to existing posts or new shoe bases, standing up to wind, salt air, and daily use.
Require a focal piece? We craft custom backsplashes, partitions, and shelves in low-iron, clear, or tinted glass, including decorative etching for privacy bands, house numbers, or logo marks. Every polish, cut, and hole location fits your site conditions, guaranteeing long-term stability, safety, and sightlines across your Burien property.
Our Process: From Expert Consultation to Flawless Installation
Though your goals drive the scope, our process keeps it precise and predictable. We commence with an on-site initial assessment throughout Burien—verify openings, substrate, plumb, and ventilation. We capture measurements to the 1/16", identify code-clearances, and highlight obstacles like uneven sills or tile reveals. You'll receive alternatives for glass type, edge profiles, and hardware finishes that suit local conditions.
After that, we verify specifications, order tempered or laminated glass, and conduct timeline planning based on supplier lead times and your availability. We coordinate permits when required and ready the site to minimize dust. On install day, we test-fit, shim for level, position panes with silicone adhesive or mounting clips, and seal bathroom and kitchen zones. Final checks include testing swing and slide mechanisms, gasket integrity, and cleanup. We finalize with payment and care instructions.
