Glass Replacement
The Window Glass We Replace
If you’re staring at a broken or cracked window — at home, at your business, or in a property you manage — you’re in the right place. We replace the glass within your existing window frame — broken panes, cracked glass, and failed sealed units. The frame stays; the glass changes. The kinds of glass we handle:
Single-pane glass
Older homes, garages, sheds, accessory buildings.
Sealed (double or triple-pane) units
Most modern residential and commercial windows. We can replace just the sealed unit when the glass is broken or the seal has failed.
Tempered safety glass
For windows in high-impact locations (near doors, low to the floor, in stairwells, in bathrooms).
Laminated glass
For security applications and storm-prone exposures.
Patterned, frosted, or specialty glass
When the original window had a textured or privacy glass and you want to match it.

Insurance-Assisted Replacements
If your window was broken in a break-in, storm, or accident and you’re working through insurance, we can help with the claim work.

Why Local Property Managers and Homeowners Call Us
Turnaround on most jobs
Common sealed unit sizes are typically faster than custom or specialty orders.
Emergency board-up for commercial
If your storefront or office window goes down overnight, we can board it up while we source the glass — keeping the property secure and the business open.
Sealed units are our specialty too
If your double-pane has fogged up but isn’t broken, the answer is often replacing just the sealed unit — not the whole window. See Foggy Window Repair for that path specifically.
Same shop, residential and commercial
The team replacing a broken window in a downtown storefront is the same shop replacing one in a Chilliwack family home.

Turnaround depends on the glass type. Common sealed unit sizes and standard single-pane glass are typically faster; specialty, patterned, or non-standard glass takes longer while we source it. Send us a photo and dimensions and we'll give you a realistic timeline. [NEEDS CLIENT INPUT — confirm turnaround ranges for standard vs. specialty glass.]
-
We replace the glass within your existing frame — the frame stays in place. We're a glass shop, not a window company, so if your frame is rotten or you're upgrading to new construction windows, you'll need a window installer instead. If you're not sure which side of that line your project falls on, send us a photo and we'll tell you straight.
-
If your glass was damaged in a break-in, storm, or accident, we support the insurance claim — providing photos, damage documentation, and quotes formatted for the insurance process. Contact us with your insurer's information and we'll coordinate. [NEEDS CLIENT INPUT — confirm billing workflow: direct billing vs. invoice-and-customer-files-claim.]
-
Double-pane sealed units are one of our most common replacements. When the glass breaks or the seal fails — causing fog between the panes — we replace the sealed unit, not the whole window. The frame and hardware stay in place.
-
Yes. If a storefront or commercial window goes down overnight, we can board it up while we source the replacement glass — keeping the property secure while the new pane is on order. Call us directly at (604) 705-0015 for emergencies. [NEEDS CLIENT INPUT — confirm board-up hours of availability and any after-hours callout charges.]
-
Yes. Tempered safety glass is required by code in certain locations — near doors, low to the floor, in stairwells, and in bathrooms. We replace tempered glass to match the original spec.
-
In most cases, yes. We can source patterned, frosted, and specialty glass to match existing windows. Send us a photo and dimensions — unusual or discontinued patterns can sometimes take longer to source, and we'll be upfront about the timeline.
-
Yes. We work with property managers across the Fraser Valley on both routine and emergency glass replacement — residential units, commercial spaces, and multi-property portfolios. If you manage multiple properties, reach out to talk about how we can make the process consistent.
