By proficiently performing their job duties, a Glazier helps contribute to the success of a construction project. Properly fitting and sealing windows reduces the risk of fogging and leaks and helps to control temperatures within a home or place of business, positively impacting both the appearance of structures and the level of comfort enjoyed by their occupants. Following safety precautions and building code guidelines reduces the risk of on-the-job injuries and makes structures safe for the people who live and work in them. Consequently, a skilled Glazier helps to shield their employers from liability. Their work also increases customer satisfaction, which can encourage repeat business and word-of-mouth referrals.
