"It was a total success. I have used Murray Masonry for small jobs before - building a concrete perimeter, filling in stone walkways etc. This was a much more complicated job and their work was outstanding. The staff are knowledgeable, professional, on time, always helpful and cheerful! It was a delight to work with them and I will ALWAYS call on them again. They are an A+ in my book."

"Considering the scope and cost of this project, I spoke to four different masons to get their opinions and bids. In the end, John Screen stood out the best fit for the job, by far. He and his team were extremely experienced, professional, and punctual -- and they did an incredible job. They identified each of the headers and sills that needed replacing and carefully removed them, and poured and installed brand-new ones. They then tackled the front portico, which was a big concern for me -- the portico has some beautiful detail work, but one corner of it had completely fallen away. Frankly, I didn't think anyone could repair it in a way that wouldn't *look* like a repair. Yet, John rebuilt the missing corner, carving the matching detail by hand, and it looks as good as new with no signs of its past damage. Finally, the team painted all of the headers and sills (both new and old), the portico, and the decorative concrete "chair rail" that runs across the building with a special paint to protect the concrete and give the building a very cohesive look. They also took the time to repaint the wooden overhang at the very top of the building. What's more, even though this was not in their scope of work, they made some small repairs to brickwork on the back of the building where we had some contractors building a new porch, and spent a few days shoring-up some structural issues they noticed in the back, as well. The whole time, John was always in communication about what was going on and how the job was proceeding. If I had any questions, he was always a call or text away. In the end, the job looks fantastic and they stayed right within budget and right on schedule. With any luck, we won't need much masonry work for a while, but if we do, I will absolutely be calling John."

"I would highly recommend Bruno and his team. They did a great job on removing our popcorn cielings. Great finish work and carpentry for crown molding. We will hire them again for future projects."

FAQs for glass blocks service projects in Boston, MA

You should seal glass block walls every two to three years. Sealing glass blocks is especially important for shower walls because the glass blocks get hit with water frequently. You can use silicone sealant to fill the outside perimeter joints of the wall on both sides. If you notice any gaps or holes before that period, it's best to fill them as soon as they appear.

While it's possible to replace a single glass block if one breaks, it's a task that requires caution and expertise. The process involves carefully removing the damaged block by chipping out the surrounding mortar, which can be hazardous due to sharp glass fragments. For your safety, it's recommended to wear appropriate protective gear, such as safety goggles, gloves, and long-sleeved clothing. However, to ensure the replacement is done safely and correctly, it's best to hire a professional who has the necessary skills and equipment.

Glass blocks are designed to be quite durable and can withstand a fair amount of impact. While they are made of glass and can chip or break under extreme conditions, solid glass block windows are robust and offer substantial strength. Reinforcing rods and mortar used in installation contribute to their overall sturdiness. It's rare for glass blocks to break under normal circumstances, but if damage does occur, it's important to address it promptly to maintain the integrity of the entire structure. Overall, you can trust in the durability of glass blocks to provide both beauty and resilience to your home.

Glass block windows enhance home privacy and energy efficiency by blocking external views and sealing out drafts. They deliver superior insulation while allowing ample natural light to brighten your space. Their solid, opaque design guarantees that unwanted onlookers are kept at bay and reinforces security. In addition, the airtight construction maintains a stable indoor temperature, reducing the need for excessive heating or cooling, which in turn lowers energy expenses and boosts overall home comfort.
