Can you get annealed glass?
Yes. Annealed glass is non-tempered glass. It’s the most common type of glass installed in your home.
What is tempered glass?
Tempered glass is one type of safety glass. It has been through a heat tempering process designed to make the glass very hard but also break into small pieces. Tempered glass is used in places where building codes require safety glass to reduce major cuts in the unlikely event that the glass breaks.
How long does it take to get the glass from your manufacturer?
It depends on the type of glass. In most cases we receive insulated (double pane) glass in 7 – 10 days, however, tempered glass may take a little longer. Fabricated glass such as shower glass or beveled/polished glass is usually 2 – 2 ½ weeks.
How long will it take to install my glass?
It depends on the complexity of the job. Most “normal” sized pieces can be installed in 45 minutes or less. Large or high glass, or complex installations can take several hours.
Can you remove scratches caused by my dog’s toenails?
We can remove individual scratches on glass (if they aren’t deep enough to be felt with your finger nail). Dog scratches on glass typically cover large areas making them very time consuming to remove. It is usually more cost effective for us to replace the glass rather than repair it.

No, but we’re happy to give you recommendations based on your needs.
Do you repair rain water or air leaks in my windows?
Leaks in windows can be very difficult to find and, in many cases, are caused by issues not directly related to the window or glass itself. We often refer our customers to other trusted companies who have a more in depth understanding of the building envelope and, therefore, have a better chance at fixing the problem. Call us with specific details of the issue and we’ll be glad to help.
