An Affordable And Fast Solution To Bring Your KC Remodel Up To Code: Window Film
Bringing Your Kansas City Home Windows Up To Code During A Remodel
Home remodels are expensive they can drag on for a long time when unexpected things pop up. However, once they are finished done, you do get to live in the home of your dreams. One issue that comes up a lot during remodels is parts of your home that need to be brought up to code in order for you to proceed with the project. Windows are one of those areas that often are out of code, especially in older homes and also very expensive to retrofit with the required shatterproof or tempered glass. The law requires that in places like bathroom and stairwells as well as sliding glass doors or large plate glass window and depending on how much of your glass is out of code the cost could be in the thousands! Which will easily blow your renovation budget. However, an easy and affordable workaround is using 3M safety film instead of tempered glass during your remodel.
Can Safety Window Film Be Used Instead Of Tempered Glass To Bring Kansas City Remodels Up To Code?
Glass areas deemed hazardous are required by law to have glazed/tempered glass on them. However, an acceptable substitute for this, that is also budget-friendly, is 3M Safety Window Film. This safety film meets code requirements but costs significantly less than replacing the glass in locations like shower, sliding doors, windows at the bottom of stairs and other hazardous areas. It is also very easy to have 3M window film installed. In fact, it can be installed in as little as one day. The combination of saved time and money makes 3M safety window film a smart alternative to tempered glass when it comes to your Kansas City home or commercial remodel.
