Are These Utah Quirks Ruining Your Windows?

No one can deny that Salt Lake Valley is a gorgeous place to live. With sweeping mountain views, four beautiful seasons, and a low cost of living, it’s no wonder Utah is one of the fastest-growing states and has one of the fastest-growing economies in the nation.

However, like any state, Utah has its quirks, and from the freeway speed limits to the thin mountain air, they can all take a toll on your car’s and home’s windows.

Below, we’ll list a few of these quirks and what you can do to address them so your windows stay clean and intact for years—and so you can keep loving your elevated Utah life.

4 Tips to Choose and Manage Your Restaurant’s Storefront Glass

Your restaurant storefront says a lot about the quality of the business inside. Use entryway and window glass in creative and unique ways to make a statement that reflects your dining establishment’s standards and goals.

Your building is the first thing that potential guests see. Follow the tips below to create an inviting and brand-enhancing restaurant using glass.

Decide on Approachability

Visualize your front door from the perspective of your potential customers. How does your storefront appear from the parking area, street, sidewalk and adjacent businesses? No matter how your restaurant is accessed, guests should see a tidy, well-maintained building with clean glass windows and entry points. 

Light Up Your Life: How Windows Contribute to Improved Mental Health

Woman in Window - Windows and Mental Health | Central Glass CompanyIf you’re struggling to keep up with ordinary daily challenges, you might talk to your doctor or even your counselor about why you have trouble concentrating or why you’re feeling down. These professionals can give you necessary help and advice. As you consult with these professionals, you can also care for your mental health by speaking with a window specialist.

Natural light has an extraordinary effect on your mental health. If your home is dark, has bad window treatments, or does not have very many large or well-placed windows, it’s time to consider what increased daily light could do for your life. Here’s how windows can boost your emotional and mental well-being.

Decreased Energy Use

You might think it silly to tout cost savings as a method of increasing your mental health, but it’s true. Many people who feel blue or stressed worry about their finances. Natural lighting is one of the easiest ways to reduce the electricity usage in your home, therefore reducing your monthly bill. If you can enlarge your windows or simply leave the treatments open more, you can enjoy beautiful lighting while saving money.

What to Expect When Having Your Windshield Repaired

d980cc5a-303b-473c-bf40-c005201b2574When you drive, you probably keep a safe following distance between your vehicle and the vehicles in front of you. You likely avoid construction areas whenever possible and give trucks hauling loose objects, like gravel, a little extra space.

But during your daily commute, a semi-truck could still churn up a rock that hits your windshield with a loud crack. The noise and the look of an object flying toward you may startle you, but the real problem will become clear if you notice a small crater where the rock hit your windshield glass.

Luckily, many rock chips like the one in this scenario can be repaired and don’t necessitate windshield replacement. But if you’ve never brought your vehicle in for rock-chip repair before, you may not know what to expect.

In this blog, we walk you through the usual process for eliminating rock-chip damage.

What Our Clients Say

Hidden Gem

I had 2 windshields replaced on my previous car at a different glass company. I went back there and got an estimate for this windshield but thought I would get a second estimate from Central Glass. I am sure glad as it saved me over $140. This is now my glass company of choice.
