Innovate Building Solutions

Installed five glass block windows in my basement. Converted one window in master bedroom to glass block. All windows have vents. All windows look outstanding. Very satisfied/impressed with how they look. And of course they are very functional. The gentleman that came in to install the windows was focused and professional. Would not hesitate to have them do additional work in my home. And I would highly recommend to anyone considering utilizing their services. Also note: the gentleman that came to do the estimate was very friendly and professional. He also looked at some of the other home projects I had going on and made some very helpful and useful comments. In other words I got value beyond just the purchase that I made with them. They did a great job and I appreciate it.

Easy process and the glass block turn out really nice. The installer was professional and timely. This was a great experience and well worth the money.

The information provided On line and over the phone gave me confidence to go forward on a DYI total remake of our master bathroom. The products ordered arrived quickly and very well packaged. I am still in the installation process, so I cannot comment on actual performance in use, but everything is moving forward without a hitch.

I am just tickled pink with my new glass block windows. I am excited to get the rest done in my basement. They were very accommodating with their scheduling. They left everything very clean and truly took care of everything without needing any interaction during this trying time of COVID 19. Thanks SO much for all your nice work. I will see you again soon.

everything was perfect. cost of glass block shower was 6500$ and cost me 1500$ for installation. My dad (94 yrs) has FINALLY considered having a wheel chair accessible shower put in his house. This company will be the first and only company I call when we get ready.

Mike Foti is great. You call him and he either answers or call back promptly. The same with emails and texts. He helped me design our double shower with glass block curved wall. The materials were top notch quality and reasonably priced. I now have the shower my wife and I always wanted. Thanks Mike

Mike was great. I needed a handicapped accessible shower. He walked me through my options and what I really needed. He made great suggestions. I ordered the stone shower pan with a 5 inch ramp Glad I made the call to them.

Living in a high-end "wasteland," I found the experience of ordering a custom "Onyx" shower pan for my AIP master bath reno from Innovative Building Solutions to be MUCH easier than mounting an all-day road-trip to the nearest "local" supplier. After doing my due-diligence on their extensive and informative website and on Houzz, I made the call and spoke with a very knowledgeable young lady who walked me through the necessary measuring steps. Two different requests for assorted sample chips from the plethora of possibilities were promptly delivered and a "winner" selected. Several months later once the walls were demoed so the plumber could do the stud-to-stud measuring needed, I called back with the measurements, including the slightly-off-center drain based on the joist position under the site. My file was quickly retrieved, reviewed and the additional data inserted. Fabrication timeline (6-weeks!) and delivery were reviewed and the order finalized. 10 days before the estimated delivery date, I received a phone call from the shipper to finalize the exact delivery date and time, followed by a phone call the day before delivery to verify. The delivery person was hugely helpful in working with my husband to wrangle the very heavy shower base to the bathroom and was very particular in stressing the need for it to lie flat and not sit for long on its side to ensure the weight did not endanger the integrity of the lip. This was NOT a "drop it at the end of the driveway and rush on to the next delivery" situation; customer service and care to ensure a successful delivery was the refreshing and much-appreciated focus. Next day, as the plumber unpacked the tray, the care with which it had been packaged for shipment was impressive. But the most fun part was the plumber's and my husband's total amazement that it fit like a glove into the space we'd measured so carefully. They were SURE it was going to be too big, and that they'd have to at least sand down the sides (of the walls, not the shower base) to slide it in. SCORE! The new shower base was NOT cheap but based on the quality of the build I suspect it will be worth every penny and then some. This is our one-for-all-the-marbles AIP renovation of the house we built 30 years ago and we're focusing on selecting easy-care, low-maintenance fittings and finishes that can go the distance AND enhance marketability when it's finally time for the old homestead to go to new owners. Can't say enough good things about the experience of working long-distance with Innovative Building Solutions; these folks know their stuff and they're all about quality customer service. Plus, their website is fun to noodle around on. I'll try to post pix once the project is complete.

I've hired Cleveland Glass Block for two projects now. The first was glass block in my basement and the second was a glass shower door. In both instances, the entire team was very responsive, supportive, and a pleasure to work with. Everyone, starting from the office staff to the project estimator to the installers, were all great to work with and their work was flawless. I would definitely recommend Cleveland Glass Block to others and I plan on hiring them again for future projects.

Mike and his companies are perfectionists personified. His attention to detail, willingness to assist from beginning to completion, and always available gave us the security of attempting this grandiose project. Everyone in your office has been wonderful, accommodating, sincere, and exceptional. You are an excellent writer, and i have appreciated your newsletters, emails, and videos. The glass blocks were "easy peasy" to assemble thanks to your DIRECTION and ADVICE. Below are some pictures. Well, Mike, what do you think? Fabulous, yes??

I had a wonderful experience dealing with Mike Foti /Innovate Building Solutions. Mike has put together so many wonderful ideas, blogs and great products for bathroom remodeling and other projects. I have never had anyone so helpful and so quick to answer any questions via phone or email. I live in another state yet he still worked with me.

West Side Glass Block, one of Innovate's family of companies, replaced all of our basement windows on our 93-year-old house and did an outstanding job. The crew did a top-notch installation and a very thorough clean-up. We opted to order window units that all open -- and now for the first time in more than 90 years, the basement in our house has terrific cross-ventilation. The glass block provides a great deal of privacy, and has easily increased the amount of sunlight in our basement by at least 50%. Really nice work!
