Glass is a beautiful way to spruce up common home areas like showers, patios, and windows. Simple and instantly gratifying, there isn’t much to worry about with glass installation in your home.
Although striking, glass can scratch or accumulate dirt quickly. Showers need frequent, detailed cleaning to ensure the glass remains smudge and bacteria-free. But at one point or another, glass doors or cabinets may need full restoration.
What Is Glass Restoration?
Glass restoration is the process of restoring glass panels using noninvasive techniques such as buffing. This process restores the original shine, gloss, or transparency of glass without impacting its structure.
Typical glass damage that requires restoration includes:
- Scratched Glass
- Etched Damage
- Cloudy Residue
- Weather Damage
If you’ve given up trying to wipe away widespread dirt or soap, it may be time to call us at Pure Clean. Don’t waste your time trying to buff out smudges. Glass restoration is an easy way to revive your home glass without having to replace the entire panel.
What Types of Damage Can Be Fixed?
Restoration addresses the small, compiled damages that may be a consistent bother for many homeowners. Maybe you’re trying to ignore that foggy shower door, or maybe the window won’t let up. Suddenly, you’re trying everything to remove visible damage. Glass restoration is the only way to truly rid your doors, windows, and cabinets of complex damage.
Here’s a full breakdown of what type of damage can be fixed by restoration:
- Stains: Stains on glass typically come from hard water exposure. If your shower features glass doors, there’s a good chance the discoloration you are seeing is from frequent hard water exposure.
- Scratches: Life happens, and so, scratches will naturally pop up on windows, doors, and cabinets. It’s not possible to curb them, but it is possible to professionally remove them with PureClean.
- Buildup/Mineral Deposits: Showers can compile mineral buildup from hard water. If you don’t have a water softener system, you might see a white film on the shower glass.
The Benefits of Professional Glass Restoration for Your Home or Business
You may feel like there’s nothing to be done about stain or buildup damage. However, glass polishing has proven to be a surprisingly effective restoration method. While full panel restorations cost upward of $800, professional polishing is a fraction of the cost. It’s not necessary to replace what can simply be polished.
Now that you know how it all works, let’s discuss the benefits of professional glass restoration for your home or business:
Enhanced Aesthetic Appeal
Glass is added to a property to add a sleek, high-class feel. If it’s scratched and smudged, it can really throw off the aesthetics of a room. Professional restoration is a great way to make sure that your glass features won’t lessen in impact over time.
Improved Energy Efficiency
There may be small cracks, openings, or leaks in your windows that are allowing air to slip through. By effectively restoring air leaks, you retain more energy efficiency.
Lower bills are just the tip of the iceberg. Heat loss is something that could make you want to replace your windows instead of repairing them, but it is just as effective to repair them. You should soon feel improvement in your home’s heating and cooling consistency following window glass restoration.
Increased Safety
It can be unsafe to try and restore glass windows or doors yourself. Because most homeowners don’t have the tools or expertise needed to successfully restore glass, it’s best to call a professional. Unless you have industry-grade gear lying around, don’t try and repair broken or stained glass yourself.
Cost-Effective
Professional glass restoration keeps your home glass outlets from developing widespread, un-remediable damage. At Pure Clean, we save you from paying for a full replacement. Maintenance or restoration with us allows you to address present and future damage in one go.
Why Replacing Your Windows Might Not Be Necessary
First, consider what’s at stake. A complete window replacement will cost five times more than restoration—and that includes both buffing and polishing.
Consider what an expert-level repair process can give you over replacement. You’ll get a 360 look at the current condition of your windows or shower doors without the price, time, and energy commitment of a replacement.
