Specialty Screen & Glass

About us

Specialty Screen and Glass is a family owned and operated business serving homeowners and businesses for over 50 years. Opened in 1956, Specialty Screen and Glass is located in the heart of Sharonville, Ohio at 11144 Main Street. Our original store can still be found serving the residents of Santa Cruz, California. We have been serving the Cincinnati area for over 25 years. We are a full service glass and screen company able to fulfill all of your residential glazing and screening needs. We strive on repeat and referral business and we do little advertising due to the large amount of repeat work that we have from our customers. We have an A rating with the BBB and are very proud of our customer service and job quality. We are a small operation company employing our owner Joe Mattingly and 5 other workers. We don't try and oversell as it is called in the window world by starting at high pricing and coming down like many competitors. We are a fair and honest company and proud to be be in business in the competitive economy we have had over the last decade. The largest portion of our sales is glass replacement in windows and full new replacement windows. When someone calls us we give an honest opinion of what is needed for their windows. If windows are less than 15 years old and operate fine then we do not try and sell you new windows. You can buy glass units at a fraction of the cost of new windows. Sometimes savings exceed 75% compared to the cost of new windows. Customers appreciate our honesty and that is what keeps them coming back for other services we offer that are listed below.

Super responsive and wonderful customer service. Needed all new screens following a house fire, and was more than pleased with the timeliness, cost, and quality of product. Highly recommend!

This was a fantastic company to do business with from the initial phone call all the way to the end. All four people I dealt with were professional and punctual. The price was reasonable and the quality was outstanding. If you have a broken window or a weird window that leaks, call Specialty Glass. They will take care of you.

I purchased a replacement storm door handle from them as I was having difficulty finding the correct one. I was charged $80 for the handle; when I installed it I discovered that it did not have a lock so I looked online for comparable pricing. I found that I could have purchased it from Amazon or directly from the manufacturer for around $30. I feel that I was taken advantage of in the pricing and was charged an inflated price. If I need future work done for the type of service offered, I will not use this company as I felt I was not treated fairly.

This company is what you want any customer-oriented company to be. One of my problem windows was what I call a "garden window", in the kitchen, that leaked cold air like a sieve. I wanted it replaced with a more standard window. When that window was removed, the previous installation by a different company demonstrated how poorly window installs can be. There were even a couple rotten boards as a result of the previous company's poor quality installation. Everything went smoothly. I would hire this company again in a heartbeat!

Everything was extremely professional from start to finish despite some issues on the initial install. We were given an aggressive price that held despite the issues encountered and the need for a 2nd day to finish the project. I was very impressed with both the quote process and the actual work as performed. The install guys were friendly and courteous and went about their work quickly and efficiently. I would recommend them tp anybody who needed window work!

Their team knew how to repair every window and did a fantastic job! Even though we had not noticed a sash before that needed repaired, they were able to repair it on the day of installation! We can not say enough about the company and their team.!

Outstanding experience. Owner came out to quote. He was early, offered several options and I received the bids the next day. On installation day, the crew arrived early, was very efficient and neat. The product looks great. I would use them again tomorrow.

Specialty Screen and Glass, its owner, and crew handled the rebuild of my screen porch with attention to detail and completed the work in one day. I could not be more pleased with the owners responsiveness and strongly recommend this Company as the place to go when you need a reliable craftsman for your project.

It went great. The new screens are beautiful, the screens were ready late the next day. I didn't think the cost was excessive, but for the money I would have liked the screen frames to have been cleaned too. But overall, A+ service!

Dave has been at our home over the last several years and has replaced windows for us and has also replaced multiple window sashes on our casement windows. He is excellent at his craft and takes pride in his work. He will give you multiple options and will not oversell anything to you. He is on time and very neat after he completes his work. We cannot recommend Dave high enough.
Response from Specialty Screen & Glass

Hopefully we will do more work for you in the future but until then, Thank you again for your business and your review. Joe Mattingly President"
