Benefits of Installing Residential Safety Glass When Deciding on Window Glass Replacement in Denver, CO

11/25/2016

54 Comments

 
Although the current windows you have now may look like they have years left in them, you may be thinking about replacing them with newer, more up-to-date ones. Others may look at this as a waste of money, since your windows appear to be holding up just fine, but whether old and dated or no longer functioning right, many homeowners are now opting to install residential safety glass. Wanting beneficial window glass replacement in Aurora, CO is not selfish. It’s smart for today and your future, and also makes for a safe and comfortable living environment by offering the following benefits:

  • UV protection: With certain types of safety glass—like laminated glass, for example—you will not be exposed to the full effects of unhealthy ultraviolet rays. This glass absorbs damaging UV sunlight, which means it blocks most of the sun from getting into your home. And your possessions—including furniture, artwork, framed photos and colorful rugs—can avoid total fading and becoming weakened to the point of falling apart.

  • Temperature control: While on the subject of the sun, did you ever think window glass would play a roll in significant temperature control? Seek out a tinted safety glass that can stave off heat from the sun, cut glare and offer shade to rooms, which in turn contributes to lower cooling bills from less A/C use.

  • Increased security: If home security is a reason why you’ve decided to look into window glass replacement in Highlands Ranch, CO, you’re making an excellent choice. And in this case, you want safety glass, since home intruders tend to go for breaking in a window before having to kick in a door. To keep from becoming a victim of a home robbery, protect yourself by choosing specialized glazing materials manufactured with safety glass layers and plastic interlay. They can try breaking through, but they are unlikely to succeed.

  • Added safety: Whether it was jagged or square pieces of glass littering the ground, we’ve all seen broken glass before. Typical window glass will shatter into a bunch of dangerous sharp pieces, which is a hazard that may only nick you, but can also end up being fatal. Chose safety glass for added home safety, especially for households with children or pets who could accidentally break a window or let their curiosity of broken glass hurt them. Do what you can to avoid injuries from sharp glass shards with a tough safety glass option, one that’s difficult to break. In the event of breakage, these glass pieces will be dull and granulated or blunt around the edges.

  • Reduced noise: Consider installing a thick double-glaze window glass option to essentially soundproof your home. When you select a high quality glass and have it installed properly by professionals, there’s the potential to cancel out a good portion of noise pollution as compared to a regular type of window glass. After all, outdoor noise should stay where it is.

To learn more about the benefits of installing safety glass in your home, give us a call at Fast Glass today. We’ll be here and ready to help should you decide to move forward with window glass replacement in Littleton, CO!

Considering a Patio Door Replacement in Denver, CO? Five Great Benefits of installing Sliding Glass Doors

11/23/2016

0 Comments

 
Adding to your home’s value doesn’t necessarily require that you make big changes. In fact, it can be something as simple as investing a moderate amount of money in a quality glass door for your patio—and you get to enjoy it for as long as you live there. Whether you’re getting ready for a new home construction or it’s time for some upgrades to your current home, consider switching out that ordinary back door for a stylish glass patio door replacement in Aurora, CO.

Here are five great benefits of installing sliding glass doors for easy outdoor access:

  • Let in natural light: Are you using an unnecessary amount of daytime electricity to power your indoor lights? If you’ve been searching for a simple way to brighten up your home without the help of light bulbs, consider upgrading to full panel glass patio doors and windows—leave curtains drawn open to let in floods of natural light, which is a good step toward becoming more green.

  • Watch kids and pets: Getting rid of old back doors and opting for a new patio door replacement in Highlands Ranch, CO is fantastic if you have kids or pets. Are you preparing dinner? You can have a clear view of them playing outside in the backyard through large glass doors. Since this allows you to watch your children and pets at play from inside, you can make sure they are safe and staying out of trouble.

  • Opens up a room: Building home add-ons or knocking down walls to make additional living space is not always possible. Instead, you can trick the eyes with the help of glass. Including small dining rooms, living rooms and bedrooms, a way to make smaller spaces appear bigger is by installing big glass patio doors to open up a room, but only if one of the room’s walls can exit out onto the patio.

  • Enhance your home’s aesthetics: Dressed in a nice window treatment or simply bordered with a lovely molding, enhance your home’s outdoor curb appeal and indoor aesthetics with the charm of beautiful, view-opening patio doors. This is not hard to do, considering that sliding glass patio doors can complement just about any home style—cottage, Victorian, art deco, Mediterranean and contemporary, to name just a few.

  • Easy in and out: A big plus of sliding glass patio doors is that they slide back and forth along a straight track rather than swinging out where they can bang into furniture and walls and get in your way. And since sliding doors are typically a lot wider than a traditional front door, you have a much easier way to get large household items inside—like couches, mattresses, tables and other sizable pieces of furniture.

After reading about some of the benefits of sliding glass doors, you may be wondering where you can find patio glass that’s well made and affordable. Well, wonder no more! Come visit the team of skilled technicians at Fast Glass for quality patio door replacement in Littleton, CO.

Regular Maintenance Should Always Follow Window Replacement in Denver, CO

11/22/2016

12 Comments

 
Because there are so many windows in your home, you may not pay them any mind until it’s too late, which may require you to replace a window that might’ve been salvageable if properly cared for. This is why it’s important to perform regular and proper care for your glass windows—including frames, sills, paint and seals—just as you would any other part of your home. With that in mind, let’s look at some maintenance tips to keep your new window replacement in Aurora, CO in good condition for years to come:

  • Keep windows clean: You see your main windows everyday, so you may overlook the fact that they are pretty dirty. Dirt, dust, pollen and stains from dried, dirty water are common types of debris you’ll find on the outside of window glass. The inside panel can have the same debris, but you should also toss in saliva from dog or cat licks, handprints and traces of glass cleaning solution. In addition, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe away debris buildup from windowsills, joints, tracks and frames.

  • Inspect frames: Window glass is not the only thing you need to check for problems. Inspect window frames—including the windowsill and moldings—for wood warping or metal deterioration, and look closely at frame connectors for missing hardware, or glue that’s lost its holding power. Regular inspections are important to ensure that window frames are in good condition and free of damage that can lead to costly repairs.

  • Check for signs of moisture: Window glass is susceptible to moisture when cracked or if there’s a problem with the frame. Signs of damaging moisture include mold or mildew along the edge of the glass or frame, bubbling paint and warping windowsills. Also, if a part of your window is malfunctioning, you may see moisture in double or triple pane window glass in the form of condensation or fog. Ignore these signs and you could end up needing window replacement in Highlands Ranch, CO.

  • Check weather stripping: A window is like a lens that lets you see what’s going on outside, which means it’s a barrier between the inside of your house and the external elements. Thus, ineffective weather stripping will cause all sorts of problems. But keep in mind that depending on the type of window installation, weather stripping and other seals may not be in plain sight. In this case, should you detect issues, it’s best to schedule an inspection with a window professional. Otherwise, check the weather stripping material for damage, like bends, breaks, cracks and looseness—missing sections need immediate replacement. And don’t forget to clean weather stripping every so often as a preventive measure against damage.

With a regular maintenance routine in place, your windows can last along time. But should you need window replacement in Littleton, CO someday soon, we welcome you to give us a call at Fast Glass. We offer high quality residential and commercial products and our services for glass window installation, repairs and replacements are reasonably priced. Your satisfaction is guaranteed!
