Functionality and Decorative Art

A mirror is a great asset when decorating a home. They’re functional and placed strategically they can visually enlarge a space. Decorative mirrors do double duty as beautiful pieces of art.

One of my personal decorative weaknesses ~ MIRRORS!

Mirrors are the simplest way to make any space feel bigger and lighter.

Custom Mirror Framed by Contractor

Mirrors are great for so many reasons—they reflect light, they open up spaces, they make rooms look better in general.

Placement Does Matter
Aside from placing it across from something visually appealing, a mirror should always be hung at the appropriate height for the space. Unlike art which should always be hung at eye level, mirror placement will depend on what you want to be reflected.

Don’t be afraid to use a large mirror in a small space. Mirrors create the illusion of depth and space, so they can really help make a smaller room feel much bigger! A full-length mirror leaning against the wall is a great decorative element to use in a tiny room.

And Don’t Forget ~ STYLE
Mirrors can be modern, traditional, edgy, classic – yes, pretty much anything you want it to be. It all depends on the frame. A good Contractor should be able to custom make you a frame that we can install mirror into. Consider what effect you want to create when choosing a mirror in a frame.

Stretch Your Tax Dollars

Turn The Ordinary Into The Extraordinary… with a Heavy Frame-less Shower or Steam Shower. Or maybe more… a Wine Room, New Windows, or New Kitchen Cabinets with Glass!

Your options are endless and we are here to help.

Bathrooms are an area of any home that are utilized daily. Creating the perfect atmosphere with stunning design and inclusion of modern contemporary features make sense. 

Frame-less glass showers, steam showers and tubs are the best choice for a flawless, modern and clean design.

While glass showers in the past required a metal frame, frame-less glass shower doors add a minimalist appeal for stylish perfection with a ‘barely there’ effect.

Frame-less showers are customized, which means you aren’t limited to mass-produced shower doors at a standard size, i.e. cookie cutter shower. Customization equals flexibility, giving the homeowner more options for a superior custom look and appeal. You, the Homeowner, choose the type of glass clear or decorative; thickness of glass; hardware; etc.

It turns the ordinary into the extraordinary!

The greatest benefit of a frame-less shower is the way they look and influence the feel of any bathroom retreat.  Frame-less, unfortunately, do not work in all bathrooms, it’s important to make sure you have enough room and setup prior to falling in love with a frame-less shower door. Many homeowners prefer them because of their flexibility and design capabilities.

Frame-less Shower Doors offer more of a variety of design options. Choose from a range of styles, sizes and design options.  Doors can swing in or outward, for more flexibility especially when space can be an issue.  Frame-less shower doors make a bathroom retreat feel more spacious; airier; and place an emphasis on other design choices you’ve made ~ such as tile.

Another great benefit of frame-less shower – they allow light to travel through the shower and bathroom; making it airy and appear larger. Your shower can even be completely enclosed with a steam shower enclosure, and your bathroom will still feel light and open compliments to the frame-less design.

When you invest in a stunning bathroom remodel, you desire the design of your bathroom to be fully enjoyed and appreciated.  A frame-less shower design provides transparency with no bars, metal and structural frames. Frame-less doors allow guests to visually see the emphasis of the tile work, attention to details and hardware.

Frame-less shower doors and enclosures are the leading choice for homeowners and bathroom remodels. Come in to discuss options and see photos of previously installed designs.  Barry has years of design experience and can help you visualize your options.

Home Energy Efficiency

Most Homeowners are guided by energy efficiencies. A home renovation project that includes installing new windows or retro fit windows and doors will lead to less cost in energy consumption.

Energy efficient windows are an important consideration for both new and existing homes. Heating energy gain and loss through windows is responsible for 25% – 30% of residential heating and cooling energy use.

If you are updating windows it is important to consider the most efficient windows you can afford that will work best in your climate.

Dual Pane Glass Doors

You have two options:
1) Replace all windows in your Home with new energy efficient ones; considering Low-E
2) Update existing windows with same windows; considering there are leaks or cracks

We would be happy to come out and give you an estimate on what it would cost to replace your windows with more energy efficient ones. Call our shop today to schedule, 916-624-4582.

Three Important Faces in Our Business

Three major people that are the back-bone to our business are Barry, Owner/Veteran; Dylan, Lead Installer; and Hillary, Customer Service.

We pride ourselves on being a small, family run business.

Dylan has worked with Barry since he was seventeen, learning all aspects of residential, commercial and auto glass. He’s a local guy and great family man, as well.

Hillary started working for us in August 2018 and provides top-quality customer service to our customer’s. Before glass she worked in the Home Health Industry and proves that her big-heart overflows to our customers.

After graduating high school in 1984, Barry joined the United States Army as a Mechanic and served three years in Germany. After service, he fell into the glass industry to help a friend who was starting his own glass business in Redding, California where he grew up.

Barry’s glass expertise and management knowledge has catapulted him in our own business venture, Rocklin Glass & Mirror, Inc.
