Frequently Asked Questions

FREE SHIPPING: What orders may not qualify?

Additional charges may apply for some rural or remote destinations as well as for oversized glass or doors (96″ or larger), or large quantities.  These fees, if any, will be applied upon entering the shipping address at checkout.

How many days will my order take to ship?

15-40 business days, on average, depending on glass and door material type.

Can I get a backsplash in any color?

Yes! You can provide pantone color numbers or send us something to use as color reference. Note, however, that drker colors will allow the sandblast etching and carving to be SEEN. Lighter colors will not.

What do I need to know about the paint on my backsplash?

Backsplash glass has to be painted solid on the backside of the glass. This will eliminate the view of the wall behind and potential impurities getting behind the glass. This also allow a way to adhere the glass to the wall.

What type of glass will be my backsplash be?

The glass needs to be tempered safety glass. Especially important behind a stove or range to prevent the glass cracking from excessive heat.

Can my backsplash include a frosted glass design?

Yes! Backsplashes will be back-painted, and we can sandblast etch and carve the design on the FRONT. Darker colors will allow the sandblast etching and carving to be SEEN. Lighter colors will not.

Can my backsplash be fabricated to accommodate outlets and go around my cabinets?

Yes. The glass will be fabricated with cutouts for outlets and notched to go around cabinets.

What is the difference between low iron glass and regular clear glass?

Clear glass contains a significant amount of iron, which gives it the appearance of a light green tint. Ultra-clear, low-iron glass is super heated to eliminate the iron from the glass, which gives the glass a crystal clear quality.

How do I find a qualified glass installer on my end?

Here are a few suggestions:

(1) Visit the BBB website has a list of qualified glazing contractors both accredited and non-accredited.

(2)  Contact a Contractor or Architect and they will be able to refer you to a glass company they use.

(3)  Google “Glazing Contractors”, your city, your state. You will see your local glass companies with ratings.

(4)  Ask anyone you might know if they have a recommendation for a good Glass shop.

(5)  If you live in a development try asking your HOA.

Can I get a brand NEW, CUSTOM design?

Yes, you can!  In fact, the vast majority of our designs were all born out of a collaboration between our clients imagination, and our principal owner and artist, Chauncey Gannett.  A concept of what’s envisioned is conveyed thru written descriptions and visual references like photos or other art, and from that, a scale drawing is created for approval.   The scale drawing is created upon receipt of a 50% deposit to place the order, or an art retainer fee.  The art retainer fee is 10% of the total price of the product, or a minimum of $350, whichever is greater.

What does “Sans Soucie” mean and how did you get that name?

“Sans Souci” is French and literally means “without concern”, meaning “without care” or “care free.”   “Soucie” is the last name of the owner’s Stepfather and Mother, who originally started the business back in the 70’s.

Which Frosted Glass Effect is the LEAST expensive?

All our 1D Effects.

Which Frosted Glass Effect is the MOST expensive?

3D Enhanced! When you add Paint or color to the glass, it becomes the most expensive effect.

How do you etch the glass?

All our glass is made by hand thru the art of sandblast etching and carving.  Using sand as their sculpting tool, our artists etch, cut and carve the design into the glass.  The white surface obscures the glass, diffuses light and eliminates glare – creating privacy without blocking light, thru a beautiful Work of Art Captured in Glass!

How do you paint the glass?

By hand thru airbrushing.

How do you Ship your Glass and Doors?

Your glass or door will ship fully insured by Freight delivery, and will be “Curbside”.  Here’s a helpful article about our lead times.  Some smaller glass orders like cabinet glass or shelves, will ship UPS Ground.

Can I rush my order?

It will depend on which product AND our current workload, as to how quickly we can complete a Rushed order, but yes, glass effects with a 6-8 week lead time can be rushed for a 20% fee. Any kind of CUSTOM DOOR SIZE and door material besides primed, doug fir and fiberglass cannot be rushed. (Those are coming from the door manufacturerer and their ETAs are firm). Please call to discuss if you wish to rush a 6-8 week lead time glass effect product. We’ll do whatever we can!

What do you recommend to clean the glass?

Any common household glass cleaner will do! See our Cleaning & Maintenace Sheet.

Is the Glass Tempered?

Yes. With the exception of tables, shelves and mirrors, all glass will be tempered for safety.

Can I cancel my order?

Only within the first 24 business-day hours of placing your order.  After 24 hours, we have a no refund, no cancellation and no return policy.  This policy is listed on our check-out page, and within the linked Terms and Conditions at check-out, as well as inside your emailed Quote (for “new” designs) and within every emailed Order Confirmation.

Why?  First and foremost because each and every product we create is custom made to order.  Nothing is Stock.  This is because there are limitless size, effect and background combinations.  With all the options and possible combination scenarios, it’s virtually impossible to stock any one of our products, in any form.

Second, because when we receive an order, we immediately get to work to fulfill your order as quickly as possible, within the estimated time frame we’ve given you.  Materials such as glass, hardware and the door frame, are in nearly all cases ordered the same day you place your order, or the following day.  Our glass vendors have a no refund policy for all glass ordered.  Period.  (Again, each piece of glass is custom-cut to order by the glass manufacturer, per piece).   Our door manufacturers give us a 48 hour window to change or cancel an order.  Hence, we allow a 24 hour window from our customers, because we only have 48 hours to notify our vendor to avoid charges.  Depending on the design and the effect you’ve chosen, we also immediately get to work on your drawing.   The very first thing we do, once materials are ordered, is create the scale drawing we need to create the stencil we use to mask the glass, to sandblast your art.  All this happens immediately, in many cases the very same day, or the next.

A Glass Backsplash for Kitchens and Bathroom are More than Just Pretty!

Beautiful, elegant and  low maintenance, a glass backsplash for kitchens is a great way to add a custom element to your kitchen while serving a practical purpose too!  Taking advantage of the luminescent look and feel of glass that makes the area airier and brighter, with our custom processes, we will color match the paint color of the backsplash to perfectly compliment and coordinate with your kitchen or bath decor.

With no limit to shape, size or style, Sans Soucie creates stunning glass backsplashes made to coordinate with any decor, for kitchen or bath.  Glass is back painted in limitless colors.  Edges can be straight, polished for a contemporary look to fit the area.  Edges can be lit, which illuminates the entire glass area, adding a stunning dramatic effect.   Edges can also be hand-cut to form irregular, freeform shapes.  See our Custom Edge Sample sheet for beautiful examples of various edges that we can apply to not only backsplashes but many of our glass products.

Irregular edges are formed by hand by our skilled artists who literally break and chip the edge of the glass, inch by inch, all across one edge.  In addition, the glass can feature a design, sandblast carved deep into the glass on either back or front, depending on the application.

Sans Soucie will determine what works best based on where the glass is going, and what’s surrounding it.  Another look is shattered glass.  A beautiful texture, shattered glass has prisms and reflective properties.  As with regular glass, shattered glass can also be back-painted.   We create a reflective effect by making the bottom or back layer mirror.  When a clear mirror is used, the glass looks like a beautiful stack of diamonds, 1″ deep!  Breathtaking and unique, this is one of our most popular choices for glass counters, glass bar tops, or backsplashes. Shipping worldwide, all Sans Soucie glass is custom foam packed at our Studio by our experienced, expert glaziers and artists and is shipped right to your door step, whether to a residence or a large, commercial project.
