Built for Commercial Work
C-17 Licensed — We Can Pull Permits
Most glass shops are not licensed to pull permits on commercial properties. As a C-17 licensed glazing contractor, we can legally work on commercial buildings, pull permits, and certify to California building code — which matters for insurance claims, TI buildouts, and lease compliance.
Same-Day Emergency Response
Break-ins and glass failures don't wait for business hours. We offer same-day board-up to secure your property and prioritize permanent glass replacement. We stock common commercial panel sizes for fast turnaround — typically 3–5 business days.
Commercial Account Programs
If you manage multiple properties or storefronts, ask about our commercial account setup — priority scheduling, faster response, and a direct point of contact for ongoing glazing needs across your portfolio.
Documentation for Insurance & Compliance
We provide proper documentation for insurance claims, building department inspections, and commercial lease compliance. All permits are filed under our C-17 license number CSLB #1125850.

What C-17 Licensing Means for Your Business
California's C-17 Glazing Contractor license covers the full scope of glass and glazing work on commercial properties — including structural glazing, curtain wall systems, safety glass specification, and permit-required installations. Unlicensed handyman services cannot legally perform this work, and many commercial landlords, property managers, and general contractors require a C-17 license and certificate of insurance before allowing any glazing work on their properties.
American Glass Experts holds CSLB License #1125850 and carries general liability and workers' compensation insurance. We furnish a COI for every commercial job before work begins. For permit-required installations in Los Angeles County, San Bernardino County, and other jurisdictions, we handle the documentation and inspections — you don't need to manage that process separately.
We work with retail chains, restaurant groups, property management companies, general contractors, and independent business owners. Whether you need a single broken storefront panel replaced same-day or a complete glass buildout for a new commercial tenant, our crew handles the full scope under one license.
Code Compliance & Safety Glass
California Building Code requires tempered or laminated safety glass in specific locations — near doors and entry points, in shower enclosures, in low-height glazing below 18 inches from the floor, and in areas subject to human impact. On commercial properties, these requirements apply to storefront installations, glass entry doors, office partition panels adjacent to walkways, and conference room walls with glass extending to the floor.
We source glass to the correct specification for each application — tempered to ANSI Z97.1, laminated safety glass for overhead and sloped glazing, Low-E coatings for energy code compliance, and fire-rated glass where required by local jurisdiction. Every installation is performed to code and, where required, submitted for permit and inspection.
Emergency board-up calls are handled without permits when temporary plywood or polycarbonate is used. For permanent replacement glass on commercial storefronts over a certain dollar threshold, we file permits as required — keeping your building compliant and your certificate of occupancy intact.

5-Star Reviews on Yelp
Frank came out to measure for glass partitions in our office and recommended 1/2-inch glass for the space. The crew completed the installation cleanly and professionally. Solid commercial work — would use them again without hesitation.
I wasn't sure about going frameless at first but Frank and Bryant took the time to walk me through the design options and explain what would work best. The result is exactly what I hoped for — solid, quality work from a team that clearly knows their craft.
The job was done well and professionally from start to finish. Our tenants were very happy with the completed work, which says everything. Would definitely recommend American Glass Experts for any glass installation.
Had some boutique mirrors done and the quality is great. Bryant was knowledgeable and professional throughout — offered honest advice and special pricing. Happy with how everything came out and would use them again.
The shower glass completely transformed the space — it feels like a different bathroom. Competitive pricing, strong product knowledge, and Eddie kept me updated throughout the whole process. Clear communication from start to finish.
A friendly neighbor recommended them after seeing her beautiful bathroom. Was skeptical at first but completely sold once I saw the work. They provided a high-quality, elegant shower door — the installation required real skill which the gentlemen delivered. The time and patience they took to make sure I loved the result was the perfect level of service.
