Our Storefront Glass Repair Process
When your storefront glass breaks, every minute counts. Here's exactly how we handle your emergency repair from start to finish:
Immediate Emergency Contact
Call us anytime, day or night. We'll assess the situation over the phone and immediately dispatch a technician to your commercial property. No waiting around wondering when help will arrive.
Secure the Premises & Board-Up
Our first priority is your security. We will safely remove all broken glass and debris, then professionally board up the opening to protect your business from intrusion and the elements. Your property stays safe while we work.
Measure for Replacement
Once your property is secure, we take precise measurements for the new glass pane and provide you with a clear, upfront quote for the full replacement. No surprises. No hidden fees.
Custom Glass Installation
We source the exact type of glass needed—whether tempered, laminated, or insulated—and our expert technicians install it seamlessly into your storefront frame. Your glass guys know what works.
Final Cleanup and Inspection
After installation, we conduct a final inspection to ensure a perfect fit and seal, and we clean the entire area, leaving your storefront secure and professional. That's our follow through promise.

Storefront Glass Repair FAQs
We'll get there the same day when you call us before 3 PM on weekdays. Your business can't sit exposed overnight — that's asking for trouble. We keep plywood and security film in our trucks, so we can secure your storefront immediately. The boarding is temporary while we order your replacement glass, but it keeps your business protected and shows customers you're still open for business.
Yes, and we make it simple. We'll document everything your insurance company needs — photos, measurements, cause of damage. Most commercial policies cover glass replacement, and we work directly with adjusters to avoid the back-and-forth. We don't do salesy add-ons that complicate your claim. Just honest repair work that gets approved without surprises.
Tempered glass breaks into small cubes — safer for people but leaves you completely exposed when it breaks. Laminated glass cracks but stays in place, keeping your storefront secure even when damaged. For most businesses, laminated makes more sense. It costs about 30% more upfront, but when someone throws a rock or tries to break in, you're still protected. Let's see if laminated fits your situation.
Absolutely. Most commercial doors use standard glass sizes, so we can usually get you back up and running within 2-3 days. We measure the opening, remove the broken glass, and install the new piece using fresh glazing compound. The door stays functional throughout the process — we just work around your business hours so you don't lose customers.
Custom storefront glass typically takes 5-7 business days from our supplier. Large pieces or specialty tints can push that to 10 days. We'll board up your opening immediately, then give you an exact timeline once we measure and place the order. No surprises — when we say Tuesday, we mean Tuesday. Your glass guys follow through on what we promise.
