*Fixhomeglass exam: testing our knowledge of window glass*

But today we decided to have a little fun and take an “exam” on replacing window glass. And you are our strict teacher. Ready?

How can you tell when it's time to replace the glass in your window?
Question 1:

Answer: If the glass unit is fogged up, there are cracks, or you feel a draft, it's time to think about it. Especially if it's a double-glazed window with a broken seal. We'll show you how to identify the problem and avoid overpaying for unnecessary replacement.

We provide a wide range of services:

What kind of glass do you use?
Question 2:
Cardinal Glass Industries

Answer: We don't manufacture glass ourselves – and that's a good thing. We use time-tested American glass from Cardinal Glass Industries, which comes with a 20-year warranty on thermal seal. This glass can withstand heat, humidity, and UV rays, remaining clear and reliable for decades.

Are you sure you know how to do this?
Question 3:

Answer: We have over 9 years of experience and thousands of successfully completed projects in the Chicago suburbs, including Wheeling. We know how to work with aluminum, wood, and vinyl frames, how to replace glass in patio doors, and how to avoid damaging finishes during installation. Our craftsmen keep the work site clean. We do our best to ensure that our customers are satisfied with the result.

What if I don't know what kind of glass I need?
Question 4:
We work with different types of glass

Answer: That's okay. We will advise you on which glass is right for you – based on your style, budget, and needs. Do you want warm glass with a Low-E coating? Or safe tempered glass? We will explain everything in simple terms and show you examples. There is also a useful article on our blog  «Types of Glass: Let’s choose the Right One». If you want to delve deeper into the context, you can read our article.

Types of window glass to choose from:

  • IGU Glass
  • Annealed Glass
  • Tempered Glass
  • LoE glass
  • Pattern and colored glass
Won't you forget to come?
Question 5:

Answer: No. We value your time. First, we offer a free consultation and measurements. Then, we give you a clear installation date. And no “oh, we forgot.” Everything is above board.

How much does it cost?
Question 6:

Answer: The price depends on the type of glass, size, and complexity of installation. But we always announce the final cost in advance — no hidden fees. Transparency is not only about glass, but also about relationships.

Did we pass the exam?
Conclusion:

We strive to improve the quality of our services and satisfy our customers, so we always prepare responsibly for each exam-order. Whether we passed the exam is up to you to decide. If you want to test our knowledge in practice, replace your glass, and be confident in the result, give us a call! We don't promise miracles, we just do our job well.

Why You Should Never Ignore Cracked or Broken Glass

Cracked glass isn’t just an eyesore — it’s a real safety hazard. Even small cracks can worsen over time due to temperature changes or minor impacts, potentially leading to shattered glass that could harm you or your family.

Beyond safety concerns, damaged glass affects your home's energy efficiency. In the winter, cold air sneaks in; during warmer months, heat gets inside more easily. This forces your HVAC system to work harder, which means higher utility bills.

Moisture can also enter through the smallest gaps, increasing humidity indoors and promoting mold growth. Plus, noise from outside becomes more noticeable. If you have children or pets, these risks become even more serious.

Don’t wait until it’s too late — reach out today and let us restore your windows to like-new condition!
