Make A Small Space Bigger

Don't be confined by small spaces - simply trick your eye into thinking it's bigger!

Mirrors are a great way to expand the look of a room by reflecting the available light and making the space appear larger.

Mirrors are also a great way to change up the look of a room and accent pieces of furniture or home decor.

Century Glass offers a wide array of mirrors to choose from and can help you customize a mirror to fit a particular space or style. From standard mirrors to framed options - talk with Century Glass about your choices.

Auto Glass Repair

You're driving down the road when out of no where a rock hits your windshield and leaves a small crack.  The crack is small now...but will it grow?

Cracks from rocks often start small but can quickly expand especially when in extreme temperatures such as the heat of South Carolina summers.  Water and dirt can also get inside of the crack and cause it to grow.

Contact your auto insurer and explain your situation. You may have coverage for a full repair. Regardless, it's important to take your car to an auto glass professional to prevent any further damage to your automobile.

Century Glass is an auto glass repair expert with quick local service. Get a quote from us today and we'll have you back up and running in no time!

Attending a housewarming? Fun gift ideas!

Looking for the perfect gift idea for a new homeowner? We’ve got some unique takes on traditional gifts that might just fit the bill.

Housewarming parties and gifts are an old tradition thought to have originated in France. The term 
“housewarming” comes from the old custom of providing firewood to heat a new home. These days there are many takes on the idea of a housewarming gift – meant instead to warm the hearts of those receiving.

1. Board Games – A fun way to prepare new homeowners for hosting friends in their new home.
2. Wreath – To add curb appeal to a new home, gift the homeowners with a seasonal wreath, door mat or porch décor.
3. Something personal – Considering personalizing a household item with the homeowners name or initials – examples are a cutting board, dish towels or photo frame.
4. Theme baskets – If you like to be a little more creative in your gift assembly, consider a theme basket. Put together a grouping of like items such as cleaning supplies, pasta night dinner kit, cookie ingredients, or a movie night basket.
5. Stationary – A fun way to celebrate the new home is with stationary and a custom return address stamp – complete with the homeowners name and new address!
