Main Points
High-Efficiency Window Upgrades for Every Room
Well before drafts seep in off Puget Sound, map out your energy-efficient window replacement on a room-by-room basis to minimize heat loss and control glare. In living areas, choose 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 alternatives along Ambaum traffic. Kitchens demand tempered units near ranges and high VT to sustain task lighting.
Bathrooms require privacy glass with corrosion-proof hardware and sealed vapor seals. For basements, opt for composite frames to prevent moisture and meet egress codes. Evaluate attic glazing in skylights: laminated, curb-mounted, and low-e to reduce summer gain. In coastal zones, opt for DP-rated frames, stainless fasteners, and correctly flashed nail fins.
Bespoke Shower Enclosures That Transform Your Bathroom
Elevate your bath with a custom shower enclosure designed for Puget Sound homes: frameless 3/8"–1/2" tempered or laminated glass, low-iron for true color, and hardware in rust-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 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 minimize leakage. Clamps, sweeps, and thresholds are measured for your tile layout, niches, and benches. In Burien's marine environment, we spec anti-corrosion fasteners and through-glass mounts. Expect clean edges, polished cutouts, and ADA-compliant handles when required.
Mirrors, Glass Railings, and Bespoke Pieces Designed for You
When we complete your shower enclosure, we extend the same care to mirrors, glass railings, and custom pieces throughout your Burien home. You get optics-grade beveled mirrors dimensioned for tight walls, sloped ceilings, or vanity spans, with clean edges and secure, low-profile mounting. For stairs, balconies, and decks, we fabricate frameless glass railings with code-compliant tempered panels, fastened to existing posts or new shoe bases, resisting wind, salt air, and daily use.
Require a focal piece? We fabricate custom backsplashes, partitions, and shelves in clear, low-iron, or tinted glass, adding decorative etching for privacy bands, house numbers, or logo marks. Every hole location, cut, and polish corresponds to your site conditions, delivering safety, sightlines, and long-term stability across your Burien property.
Our Method: From Consultation to Crystal-Clear Installation
Though your goals drive the scope, our process maintains it precise and predictable. We commence with an on-site Initial assessment anywhere in Burien—check openings, substrate, plumb, and ventilation. We document measurements to the 1/16", identify code-clearances, and flag obstacles like uneven sills or tile reveals. You'll receive options Burien Residential Glass Installation for glass type, edge profiles, and hardware finishes that fit local conditions.
After that, we validate specifications, procure tempered or laminated glass, and perform Timeline planning tied to supplier lead times and your schedule. We arrange permits when needed and prepare the site to reduce dust. On installation day, we dry-fit, shim for level, place panes with silicone adhesive or mounting clips, and seal bathroom and kitchen zones. Concluding checks include swing/slide testing, gasket integrity, and cleanup. Payment and care guidance wrap it up.
