We have new creations hanging in our window! They throw some amazing colors as the sun shifts and shine through them.

You can see them when visiting the Shoppe and the are by our patio doors for some after hours viewing!

This is one of our wave designs that is perfect for our coastal village. Have your own mini beach vacation with a panel line this, and check out our other designs at the Shoppe.

We will also be sharing photos of them soon, so check back here and on our social media!

Vinyl retrofit window with decorative vinyl grid. Dual pane tempered glass for strength, durability, and improved insulation

This week we have been working with our wonderful clients on their glass and mirror projects. This include replacing broken windows, since, unfortunately glass breaks! Some times it’s a fallen branch or a kicked up rock that hits the glass and now you have a hole or crack in one or both glasses.

That is why we are here to get your window repaired. Our single and dual pane window glass pieces are custom sized for your window and we can even do the install and replacement as well!

Looking to upgrade your windows? Check out our Vinyl Retrofit Window page here to learn about improvements from single pane to dual pane, vinyl framed windows!

And be sure to check out our Art Glass Windows page here to see our custom designed, artistic windows, and get inspired to get yours today! Prefect combination of form and function, privacy and art!

Happy October friends of Glass and Mirror Shoppe! We are getting into spooky season and enjoying the fun decorations that are starting to go up. If you are looking for a themed piece of art glass of your own, contact us! We create custom designs for our clients and they get a one of a kind piece of art that they love!

This week we were working on glass for windows. Often in dual pane windows, only one of the pieces of glass is broken. However, these come as sealed units and it would not make sense to only replace the one piece. It would take more time, money, and you would not have that seal which is need for the great insulation that dual windows provide! Check out our window page here for more information and to see what we do!

It has been a warm and sunny week for us in lovely Carlsbad, but it hasn’t slowed us down!

We do many window repairs and retrofit for our clients. We replace broken glass in wooden, aluminum, or vinyl frames for stationary or sliding windows.

If you can bring in the frame, we can measure it, you can bring the frame back home, and return it when the glass is ready where we can install it.

Or, if you send us some photos and measurements of the glass with your zip code, we can give you an estimate for the repair. Then we will come out and take the measurements, and when the glass is ready, schedule with you for the install of the new glass.

We are now into the month of June, summer is just over the horizon! It is sure to be much different from last year. Everyone is still working to keep themselves and others safe, but things keep looking better everyday and we must keep moving and looking forward!

We here at the Shoppe are thankful we are able to keep working and provide our services to the community. We have still been working on glass repairs - from cracked sliding glass doors to crystal glasses with chipped rims. By providing these services, we can repair many things and replace as needed. Recently, a few clients had needed help with fogged windows. This happens when a dual pane window loses it’s seal and the inside gets a foggy look. It may seem like you can wipe it off, but unfortunately the issue is on the inside and requires a new, sealed dual unit. Most often we only need to replace the glass and can reused the frame.

If you are looking to upgrade to vinyl retrofit windows, we do that as well. More information can be found here on our windows page.

Another lovely week in Carlsbad Village in sunny Southern California!

In between our spots of rain, our clients have been improving their windows. We can replace old, leaky, and failed windows with new vinyl retrofit windows. This is great for replacing single pane aluminum frames to something with a cleaner look and dual panes for sound and temperature isolation. Check out our window page here for more information and to see some of our work.

Vinyl retrofit also applies to patio doors. With dual pane tempered glass, they are more secure than a single pane of raw glass. Plus you get the increase insulation and the same fresh look to match new windows!
