Spruce up the Outdoors!

Enjoy the outdoors this summer! Whether you're relaxing in a hammock, on your deck or around the pool Century Glass can help you make the most of your outdoor furniture!

Glass tabletops are common in patio furniture, but what happens when one of the pieces break? 

Rather than spending the money to replace the entire set with new matching furniture, let Century Glass replace just the broken glass. Patio furniture uses a specific type of glass in the tabletops known as tempered glass, which helps promote safety by preventing sharp shards from forming if the glass breaks. Got an umbrella hole? If you're calling in to order a replacement tabletop, don't forget to give us the measurement for the umbrella hole so we can include it for you.

Complicated jobs? Just give us a call. We can help!

Help Safeguard Your Home

Did you know there are ways to make your home less appealing to potential thieves? According to statistics from the FBI, a burglary occurs every 14.6 seconds with 65% of break-ins occurring during the day.

There are some easy and inexpensive ways you can make your home less vulnerable. Check out the list below.

• Make sure all your doors are locked. Windows too! Don't leave a spare key in any obvious place - better to leave with a neighbor or family member.
• Don't forget to lock the door from the garage to the inside of the home.
• Keep decorative bushes and shrubs clear from doorways - making it hard for anyone to hide while trying to break in.
• Make sure the outside of your home is well lit and consider motion detector lights.
• Leave a secondary vehicle parked in the driveway so it looks as if someone is home during the day.
• If going out of town, stop the mail and newspaper. Have the garbage can brought back up to the home after pick-up by a neighbor.
• Install a home security system and advertise its presence!

There's no way to completely protect your home so have a list of all your valuables for insurance purposes. Keep valuables out of plain sight!
