24 Hour Glass Repair — How It Works

24 hour glass repair means we're available to respond any time of day or night — a break-in at 11pm, a baseball through a living room window, a car backing into a sliding door, a shattered storefront after a collision. Whatever the situation, the immediate priority is securing the opening to protect the property from weather, further damage, and unauthorized entry.

Our emergency response process works in two stages:

Stage 1 — Board-up (same day/night): We secure the opening with plywood or polycarbonate sheeting fastened to the frame or surrounding structure. Board-up protects against weather, insects, and opportunistic entry. It's not pretty, but it's fast and it works. We carry boarding materials on our vehicles and can respond to most of the San Fernando Valley and surrounding areas within 1–3 hours of your call.

Stage 2 — Permanent glass replacement (same week): Once the board-up is in place, we schedule the permanent glass replacement. For standard residential windows, sliding doors, and common commercial panel sizes, we typically complete replacement within 3–5 business days. Custom or specialty glass (tempered commercial panels, large picture windows, specific Low-E configurations) may take 5–10 business days to fabricate.

For insurance claims: we can provide detailed written estimates with glass type, size, and installation labor itemized — the format insurance adjusters require. We're familiar with the major home insurance carriers and know what documentation they need. If the break-in resulted in a police report, your deductible may be waived under a separate property crime clause — ask your agent.

What to do before we arrive: if glass is broken in a frame, don't try to remove the remaining shards yourself — broken tempered glass is safer than annealed glass because it crumbles into small pieces, but both can cause serious lacerations. Keep people (especially children and pets) away from the area. If the break-in is fresh, don't touch anything until police have documented the scene.

We handle emergency glass for residential homes, apartment buildings, commercial storefronts, office buildings, and auto dealerships throughout Los Angeles, Ventura, San Bernardino, and Riverside Counties. For the fastest response, call us directly — the contact form is not monitored after business hours.

5-Star Reviews on Yelp

Got a mirror installed in the master bathroom and it turned out really nice. They offered 1/4-inch mirror and the quality is solid. Fits perfectly on the wall. Clean work, straightforward process.

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.

From the first call to the final installation, everything was perfect. Bryant and Franklin helped turn our shower glass vision into exactly what we wanted. Professional, skilled, and a real pleasure to work with.

Reached out for a shower enclosure estimate and Frank responded the same day. He walked me through hardware options, explained the warranty coverage, and made sure everything stayed within budget. Really appreciated how knowledgeable and clear they were from the very first call.

Bryant was no pressure, informative, knowledgeable and patient. On install day, all the guys were friendly, professional, hard working and clean. The windows and slider are amazing — easy to open, self locking, and beautiful. The noise reduction is remarkable. I added one additional window on install day and they made a point to install it that day. They deserve more than 5 stars.

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.
