Energy-Efficient Window Upgrades and Replacement

While your current windows appear adequate, energy‑efficient replacements can cut heat loss, decrease 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 reduce U‑factor and solar heat gain without losing visible light. We analyze 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 suggest insulated fiberglass, vinyl, or thermally broken aluminum frames, sealed with backer rod and low‑expansion foam to eliminate air leakage and condensation. Correct anchoring, shims, and flashing incorporate units with your weather barrier, safeguarding structure and occupants. You'll receive clear performance data, precise installation timelines, and warranties aligned with manufacturer specifications.

Tailored Shower Enclosures and Glass Accents

As you upgrade your home's glass, custom shower enclosures provide precise fit, clean lines, and safe performance designed for your space. We take precise measurements of openings, verify wall plumb, and designate tempered or laminated safety glass to meet code and limit flex. You pick frameless enclosures for reduced hardware and effortless maintenance, or semi-frameless systems for defined edges and budget control.

We engineer door swing clearances, hinge loading, and anchor points to match tile, stone, or acrylic surrounds. Low-iron panels enhance clarity; protective coatings limit water spots. For privacy and style, we include patterned interlayers and decorative etching with slip-resistant textures on thresholds. We seal with mold-inhibiting silicone, set even reveals, and adjust sweep compression to prevent leaks. Your enclosure performs, fits, and lasts.

Fast Repair Services, Critical Board‑Ups, and Security Standards

When glass shatters, you require a rapid, safe response that reinforces the opening and protects individuals and property. We come prepared with cut‑resistant gloves, eye protection, shatter‑collection tools, and fitted panels to secure the site. After containing the space, we extract loose fragments, document the scene, and install sturdy board-ups or interim glazing to restore weatherproofing, safety, and energy efficiency.

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 laminated, tempered, or insulated glass matched to performance specs. We anchor boards to structural members only, preserve drainage paths, and label hazards. Our technicians verify safe egress, pet/child zones, and alarm sensors. You leave with a stabilized opening and a confirmed follow‑up plan.

Understanding Permits, Building Codes, and HOA Regulations

As code compliance ensures safety and resale value, we commence your project by mapping 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 standards. We confirm scope, assign responsibilities, and set permit timelines so you know when work commences and inspections take place. We process submittals, drawings, and calculations, then coordinate HOA approval, aligning design specifications with community standards to avoid delays.

We deliver clear Code updates related to glass placement and opening dimensions. Prior to installation, we run verification checklists: tempered markings, fall‑prevention, safety rails, and emergency egress. During work, we copyright jobsite compliance and schedule inspections. Upon approval, we file permits for your records and future resale.

Selecting the Right Glass, Hardware, and Warranties

Before ordering a 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 requires, then calibrate U‑factor, SHGC, and visible light. For coastal glare and sharp views, Low‑iron glass provides true color; for privacy, we provide acid‑etched or switchable alternatives. In wet zones, we choose corrosion‑resistant hinges, rollers, and fasteners, then align Hardware finishes with your fixtures for durability and cohesion.

We record spacer type, gas fill, and sealant system to maintain warranty integrity. You'll know what's covered: glass breakage, seal failure, stress cracks, and finish durability. We record warranties, supply care protocols, and schedule follow‑ups, safeguarding your investment and safety long‑term.
