        Remove a glass block window and replace with a regular window Sign In/Join 
        posted
        We have just purchased a house that has 2 glass block windows in the Master bedroom and 2 in the Master bathroom. There was an exit to the backyard through the masterbath room, but the previous owner added a large walk in closet where the exit was. So now there is no exit in case of an emergency. How do you replace a glass block window with a "regular" window. Any help would be greatly appriciated!

        Post a picture of the outside and the inside.
        We need to know what type siding you have, if it's real glass block or a replacement window that looks like glass block and how it's held in place.
