West Palm Beach, FL (PRWEB) March 25, 2015
March 25 2015. West Palm Beach, FL.
Express Glass Repair and Board Up Services (http://www.expressglassfl.com/), a top West Palm Beach Glass Repair and Replacement Company, is proud to announce expanded coverage of the timely 'repair' vs. 'replace' issue in the glass industry.
Industry outsiders might not realize just how important the repair vs. replace issue is to glass customers, commented Yani Santos, general manager of Express Glass. However, particularly in our West Palm Beach service area, many consumers and businesses struggle with the costs of repair vs. the costs of replacement. Our expanded blog coverage can help in this regard.
To learn more about glass replacement issues, please visit http://www.expressglassfl.com/blog/category/glass-replacement/. There one can read several timely blog posts on the topic.
Repair vs. Replace: Which is Better?
Many customers both commercial and residential struggle with the cost parameters of whether to repair or replace a glass window or door. The issue is often one of immediate out-of-pocket expense versus the long-term advantage of a brand-new glass window or door. The company's blog posts cover these issues in great detail. For example, one blog post covers the issue of whether a glass replacement is in stock vs. out of stock, and whether the company can easily order the repair or replacement parts. A second blog post covers the issue of how to best calculate the costs of repair versus replacement, which is of particular importance to small business owners.
Another timely issue is how quickly the company can repair versus replace a glass window unit. Because Express Glass & Board Up stocks a large quantity of replacement parts, it is one of the fastest repair companies in South Florida, including West Palm Beach; and, because it has unique relationships with the vendors of glass windows or doors, it can usually quickly order a replacement unit. Indeed, the company stocks many of the most common sizes in its inventory, and in certain circumstances may be able to replace a glass window or door immediately.
One of the unique services featured explained on the company's blog is its offering of pre-measurement of glass windows or doors for larger businesses, including apartment associations or condominium associations. In this way, if they are the victim of vandalism or an accident, they can very quickly have a glass window or glass door replaced.

D.C. kitchen remodeling costs are back up
The average cost of a major midrange kitchen remodel in the District is $57,536, according to the 2015 Cost vs. Value report from Remodeling Magazine, returning to 2010 levels ($57,604) after a dip in costs ($53,950 in 2013 and $54,334 last year).
The reason for the Districts dip? The government shutdown and sequestration may have caused people in the Washington region to save instead of spend, Editor-in-Chief Craig Webb said, forcing contractors and remodelers to drop their labor and overhead costs.
A full kitchen renovation will vary in cost in different areas largely because of labor, Webb said. The District is relatively cheap compared with some other large cities the same renovation would cost an average of $70,403 in New York and $69,359 in San Francisco but more expensive than most other areas.
It really is labor; its not the cost of the products, Webb said. In D.C., the labor costs are going to be higher than places in the Midwest, so the cost of the overall project is going to be higher. Washington is one of the highest for spending on remodels because of the relative wealth of the area and the age of the homes.
Ikeas new Sektion line is here
Ikea made a splash in February with the release of its new Sektion kitchen line, after 20 years of the ubiquitous Akurum line (first released in 1995). Sektion was developed to give customers more flexibility in their design process while sticking with what was so great about the Akurum.
Both the Akurum and Sektion are installed with a wall-mounted rail system, but the Sektion linehas a modular design that lets you combine cabinets, drawers and doors in any way you like. It also features drawers within drawers and interior organizers to help de-clutter your cookware and is compatible with Ikea technology including integrated LED lighting, remote control dimming and USB outlets.
Window shop for Waterworks
Waterworks is not new to the kitchen scene, but its latest kitchen showroom in Georgetown is. The grand opening is March 26, and the companys chief executive and creative director, Peter Sallick, said customers can expect to see something totally new. The showroom will feature kitchen vignettes and hundreds of new products, with color making a big statement throughout.

On the outside, the building that Design Innovation Architects, Inc. resides in looks like you've stepped back in time.
The inside still retains the steel beams and brick walls from 1910. And though some of the office space is modernized, it still has that historic charm.
This is what DIA does restore and renovate.
DIA, a company that has been around since 1989, has done this to many buildings in the Downtown Knoxville area including the Phoenix Building, 29 Market Square and the Patrick Sullivan's Building.
President of DIA and UT graduate, Faris Eid, said historic preservation is crucial to a city like Knoxville.
"You always notice that there's something special about the historic character of buildings," Eid said. "Those are the ones that define what a city looks like."
Restoring the buildings has its challenges, Eid said, but no two buildings are alike in their restoration. Over the years, many of Knoxville's historic buildings have been renovated. They've had pieces torn off, added on and built into them.
"So the magic is how do we restore while preserving the historical components," Eid said.
One of the first things in the construction process is ridding the buildings of the unwanted, non-historical additions. DIA also looks at archival photos of the buildings original design and tries to stay true to the original concept of the building, while still making it functional for modern day use. On occasion, DIA is able to reach out to the namesakes of a building and get floor plans.
The DIA team tries to save the majority of downtown Knoxville's old historic buildings,by stabilizing and coming up with creative ways to keep the buildings standing.

Company restores, renovates historic buildings | Arts & Culture
Troy
A crane lifted drywall into the historic Quackenbush building on Tuesday, as workers were busy transforming the four-story structure into a high-tech workshop and office space.
Construction crews are working toward a June ribbon-cutting at the Third Street building, which will house the Tech Valley Center of Gravity and several other private tenants, building owner David Bryce said during a tour.
The 55,000-square-foot building, which had been vacant for more than a dozen years, is about 80 percent leased, Bryce said, pointing out the 1850s-era cast-iron columns from the building's beginning as Quackenbush Department Store.
Bryce said workers found a portrait of store founder Gerrit Van Schaick Quackenbush tucked inside a wall of a 1930s addition to the building, likely done as the store was being changed over to W.T. Grant. He said he has had the portrait restored at Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, Mass.
Another oddity surfaced during the renovation, Bryce said a U.S. flag with 39 stars, a version that never became an official flag. The banner was created by some flag makers in 1889 who gambled that the Dakota territory now the states of North and South Dakota would be admitted to the U.S. as a single state. That gamble failed: The territory was divided in two, and Montana, Washington and Idaho were granted statehood at the same time. Such flags are now collectors' items.
For all its history, the venerable building which Bryce said was the first steel-framed structure in the state north of Manhattan at the time is being reborn from its Victorian heyday as a 21st-century technology hub.
The building became, after it was a W.T. Grant store, a Rite Aid drugstore. But it has been vacant since 2001.
As workers put up framing for interior walls, Bryce showed off floors being rewired to carry high-speed Internet connections.
Views from the upper floors, which now have insulated 10-foot glass windows, are dramatic and look out on downtown, the Hudson River and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.

June reopening possible for revived Quackenbush building in Troy
HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) -
An aged state building on prime real estate just a block away from the State Capitol that's been vacant for 12 years is finally getting renovated.
The Princess Victoria Kamamalu Building, at the corner of King and Richards streets, was built in 1957 and needed renovations in 2003 when 300 state employees moved out.
It's been empty so long a tree has grown in front of its main sign and another tree has sprouted on the roof.
"I think we've been working to get this building up and operational for over 12 years and we're excited to finally start construction," said Doug Murdock, the state comptroller who is director of the state's Department of Accounting and General Services, which oversees state facilities and purchasing.
In 2005, the state set aside $12.6 million for renovations to the building but when it discovered pervasive asbestos and deteriorated building systems, repair estimates more than doubled.
Removal of asbestos, as well as old air conditioning, plumbing and electrical systems cost about $1.4 million.
"The original funding that we had was good for removing asbestos and doing some other remediation work that we had to do to turn it into an empty shell as it is now," Murdock said.
But during the recession, the project languished without the money to complete it while the state explored selling or swapping the property.
"We've just within the past few years, gotten the full funding to rebuild the entire building," Murdock said.
