My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

What's the height from the rooftop deck to the glass? How high is it?

    The client requested the height to be 7 feet above the deck flooring. By code we only needed to be 42". There is a lot of wind here so this rail acts as a wind shield as well.

    I live in Chicago. Do you have any recommendations for vendors for installing a wind shield?

    Unfortunately I don't have any contacts in Chicago. A good contractor will engage a structural engineer to ensure the windscreen is adequately supported. Good luck!

    Beautiful. May you provide the cost for the glass railing? Price per sqft? Anything? Thank you.
