Commercial Glass Installation & Repair in Phoenix, AZ

New storefronts, entrances, windows and interior glass for Valley businesses, specified for desert sun and installed to the energy code, plus repair and replacement when glass fails.

What happens when you call

Talk to a glazier

Tell us what broke or what you need built. We ask about glass type, opening size, frame condition and whether the space is secure.

Make it safe, then make it right

Broken openings are boarded or temporarily glazed first. Then the opening is measured and the permanent glass is ordered to fit.

Written scope, clean records

You get a line-item estimate and photos of the damage and the finished work for your landlord or insurance carrier.

Installing glass for the desert

In the Phoenix area the glass you choose matters as much as how it is installed. A west-facing storefront in July takes direct sun for hours, and the wrong glass turns the front of a store or office into a heat lamp. On every new installation we start with orientation and exposure, then pick the glass coating, tint and frame to keep heat gain, glare and fading under control.

Our installation work in the Valley includes new aluminum storefronts for retail pads and strip centers, entrances for restaurants and medical offices, window and curtain wall replacement on older office buildings, and interior glass for tenant improvements in Tempe, Scottsdale and the Camelback Corridor.

Choosing glass for Valley heat

For most Phoenix storefronts we recommend insulated glass with a spectrally selective low-E coating. It blocks a large share of the sun’s heat while still looking clear, so the business keeps its street visibility. Where a darker look is wanted, tinted outer lites combined with low-E can cut heat gain further.

Glass that sits in full sun next to shade from columns, signs or deep overhangs is at risk of thermal stress cracking. Heat-strengthened or tempered glass handles those temperature differences far better than annealed glass, and we specify it wherever the exposure calls for it.

Codes and permits for new glazing

Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa and the other Valley cities each run their own building departments and adopt their own editions of the building and energy codes. A new or replacement storefront usually needs a permit, and the glazing has to meet the energy code’s limits for heat transfer and solar heat gain. We confirm the requirements for the specific city, prepare the submittal and schedule the inspection.

Scheduling around the heat

Summer installation days start early. Sealants cure differently in extreme heat, glass and metal expand, and crews need to work safely. We schedule exterior installation for the cooler part of the day, store glass out of direct sun before it goes in, and use sealants rated for the temperatures they will see.
