Every home and commercial building needs glass repair or replacement at some point. Windows are broken and need to be fixed. New requirements for energy efficiency render older windows obsolete. Some home renovations include replacing old doors with newer models that have glass inserts. Sometimes homeowners decide to replace current windows with larger ones, or make the switch to energy efficient windows.
Commercial buildings also need glass professionals. Many office buildings incorporate glass indoors for office doors or conference room walls. Commercial buildings often change occupants and the new companies may have different requirements for office configuration or glass placement. Glass professionals with both residential and commercial experience are especially necessary in California. The state has strict design and energy efficiency requirements that can present a challenge for residential and commercial glass-work.
The Wide Range of Glass Products
Both residential and commercial buildings use glass extensively. All homes have windows and many also incorporate glass into patio or French doors. Homes also use glass for shower doors, cabinet fronts, and even tables or other pieces of furniture. There are so many design choices when it comes to glass replacement, from frosted and patterned glass to seamless curved pieces used for window walls.
Commercial buildings use glass in exterior places like doors, windows, and overhangs. They also have many interior glass fixtures, like office dividers or half-walls in loft areas. Glass is a popular décor choice in office buildings and you can see glass railings on staircases or beautiful glass displays in lobbies and reception areas.
