"Michael loves glass and finds beauty in its many incarnations. He created an exquisite front door piece for my house 9 years ago. All that door has done is look gorgeous. Haven't had a lick of trouble with it. And, Michael repaired an old glass tile for me too -- at cost even -- because he appreciated it as much as I do. The company also made glass inserts for cabinet doors which are lovely - more banal than the dramatic entrance but equally trouble free. I would hire them again in a heart beat."
"This is a family owned and operated business that manufacture their own windows. One home visit to take measurements and provide pricing. The price was $1,000 less (product & installation) than the first vendor that came to my home. Installers were extremely pleasant and polite, and were extremely meticulous with the installation -- even thoroughly cleaning the glass before leaving. Old windows and all debris was removed from my property. Within the 45-days prior to the window installation, I had my condo freshly painted, and added a chair rail in room with the sliding door. There was absolutely NO DAMAGE to the fresh paint, etc. These are retrofit vinyl, double paned windows, and function perfectly. The windows are covered by a lifetime guarantee, and qualify for the current federal tax credit. I love these windows! My neighbor got these windows about 3 years ago and are still very pleased with them."
"Raul of JD's Stained glass did a great job restoring a very old stained glass mural in my hallway door. It only took 1 1/2 weeks and he only charged me $650."
"This was a challenging job and Precision Glasswork rose to the challenge and lived up to our expectations. Their back office was well organized, the installation crew were total pros -- both careful and precise -- and the pre-measured mirrors all fit like gloves. Precision Glasswork is busy and glass is exacting work. For us, it was worth waiting for a time-slot to open up for our work to get on their calendar."

"First off, I was very proud to support an army veteran in choosing Felipe out of 3 bids to do a somewhat complex remodel of my master bathroom. He shows up when he says he will show up, and if he is late, he lets you know (rare in this business!). He only commits to one large project at a time, and what this means is that he would show up at 8am each day, and work through the whole day, I never felt we had a wasted day in this project. He was also extremely respectful of our home and schedule. He insisted his guys lay drop clothes throughout the house to avoid getting dirt and dust everywhere, and he even rolled up the cloths at the end of each day. If a day ran late, he was only to happy to stay late and finish the work, but only after asking us permission - he was very concerned to disrupt our evening family time. This level of respect for his customer is something that he insists on with his crew, and we found every one of them to be polite, hardworking, reliable and respectful. Felipe is also very focused on making sure we were happy, and I wasn't an easy customer for this. If I noticed I didn't like the way something was done, he would explain his reasoning, but if that wasn't good enough for what I needed, he always obliged to make the change so I would be happy. The project involved a full demo of a master bathroom, and also removing a wall to extend the bathroom into a patio space, to create a 100 sq. foot bathroom. This required lots of concrete demo, re-leveling the patio floor, building a new tub frame, installing a large tub, building a shower pan, plumbing and drain rerouting, new flooring, installing shiplap on several walls, electrical, installing large windows and a skylight, converting to a 2-sink vanity, shower glass enclosure and lots of marble tiling work. In this much complexity, we did have lots of bumps along the way, but with his good heart, we got through them, and at the end, we are super happy with our new bathroom. Felipe has skills in framing, tile work, plumbing, carpentry and drywall. Unique in his drywall approach, he creates very little dust by getting to an almost smooth finish that requires less sanding work. In plumbing he wasn't always familiar with the newer plumbing fittings that we got, but unlike others he would say "let's look at the instructions". His tiling work was good, and he worked with marble, porcelain and ceramic on this project - I will say this was the most tedious part of the project to get right! He worked very hard, and I would say an extra 5 days than planned to accommodate our needs, and never charged us extra. For all the extra work he did when issues came up such as floor leveling, plumbing runs, he never complained, and honored the original contract we signed. Overall I recommend Felipe as an amazing guy to hire to do any kind of home repair. With Felipe, you could just trust him and leave him to do your full project without worry. If you have exacting requirements (as I did), then my advice is to clearly write out what you need, so things don't get forgotten or confused along the way, and Felipe is only too happy to have you check his work and adjust/accommodate as you go along."

Establish a two-phase routine for glass and mirror service inspections to handle the local climate. In early October, inspect window seals, weatherstripping, and caulking to block winter marine moisture. In late April, check for condensation between panes and assess south-facing windows for UV degradation before the summer heat arrives. Additionally, inspect all large glass panels and sliding doors for stress fractures after any notable earthquake in the Gardena area.

When planning glass and mirror service, several hidden expenses arise in older Gardena homes. Upgrading non-compliant glass to meet California Title 24 energy standards adds expenses. You face mandatory lead paint or asbestos testing if your home dates to the mid-century. Additionally, coastal salt air severely corrodes aluminum window frames, requiring full frame replacements. Finally, contractors must bring outdated framing up to current seismic bracing codes to ensure your home remains safe.
Helpful?
Prioritize a safety glazing audit as your first glass and mirror service project. California law mandates tempered or laminated safety glass in hazardous locations like shower enclosures and sliding doors. Next, assess any original single-pane windows, as they fail current energy standards and cause indoor heat gain. Finally, add safety backing to older frameless bathroom mirrors to prevent dangerous shattering during a Gardena earthquake.
Helpful?
Your home is an excellent candidate for glass and mirror service if it features original single-pane aluminum windows or pre-1978 sliding doors. Look for climate-driven wear like persistent morning condensation between panes or visible silvering loss on south-facing mirrors. Because CA experiences frequent seismic activity, check for micro-fractures in your glass or shifted frames. Upgrading these elements ensures your property meets current safety and energy standards.
Helpful?
Completing glass and mirror service significantly boosts your property value in the competitive South Bay market. Upgrading to dual-pane, low-E windows provides documented CA energy code compliance, which attracts buyers seeking lower utility bills. Replacing non-tempered glass in hazardous locations removes legal disclosure liabilities during escrow. Furthermore, aesthetic upgrades like frameless shower enclosures consistently appeal to buyers, provided all structural work carries proper municipal permits.
