About Milwaukee Glass Block
Milwaukee Glass Block is a local service site for one job: helping Milwaukee-area homeowners get glass block windows installed right.
Around Milwaukee, glass block is a familiar sight in basements, bathrooms and stairwells, especially in older bungalows, duplexes and flats. Done well, it brings in daylight, keeps the view out, and replaces drafty old windows with a sealed, sturdy panel that holds up to Wisconsin winters.

Before you hire anyone
Whoever installs your glass block, ask for a written estimate that lists every window, the block pattern, any vents, how rot or damaged masonry will be handled, sealing and cleanup, and ask about the warranty. Confirm the contractor carries insurance, ask whether a permit is needed and who will pull it, and on an older home ask how they handle lead-safe work. Our terms explain how requests are handled.
