Amazing service!

I am absolutely thrilled with my mirror! Visiting Gerrard Glass I had a lot of questions about how I could achieve my desired look. The ladies at the front desk were very friendly and informative, showed me all of my options and thoroughly explained the differences between products and ways which I could mount this mirror. I wanted something industrial but simple and sleek - I ended up going with a beautiful matte black metal frame which they cut to size and assembled for me with hangers so I could easily install it myself. They have tons of options and an assortment of frames to choose from. The boss offered me an espresso and made pleasent conversation. Very welcoming atmosphere! Will definitely be back.

Simple glass shelves

March 1st I ordered 3 shelves of tempered glass. i also requested to have them done with a rush order (at an additional cost) and told to call the store back on march 5th.

I called them this morning and rather than addressing the concerns, the individual that answered the phone merely told me that the order would take an additional two weeks.

I requested to speak with the owner and have been on hold, sometimes wiht the call disconnecting and me having to call back, for over an hour now.

This shop is a complete joke

I agree with all the other comments about this place. Avoid at all costs. I will have to address the charge they took to my credit card as they are willing to cancel the order, but not refund the purchase cost.

The frame and window did not happen within the given time frame but it was not unexpected with the stile of window frame i was looking for. When the installation was dun i was impurest with how fast and clean thy where. I would recommend this company with it's new owners to everyone.

Condo glass

I had them do an initial glass installation at the condo. George, who came to give the quote was really friendly. The other man was too. They both were very good.

However, after the installation, I noticed a flaw in the glass. It was one of those black dots.

My main issue is with their in-store front desk personnel. For some reason, communication is extremely poor. I called them for another job and also emailed them and never heard a response. It's as though they don't care for any jobs. Also, their glass products are really expensive.

On the bright side, because they didn't respond to my multiple attempts to contact them, I ended up going to another glass company for my other condo and had a received a better product, with better customer service, and at a cheaper price!!! I guess things always work out in the end!

Mirror

I ordered a mirror with polished edges. It was done quickly but I was told to bring a blanket to wrap it in! They don't package it up for transport? No corner foam edges... Very odd. When I received the mirror it was chipped, had tiny black dots on it. The edges were not polished and the grey backing wasn't even to the edges. When I phoned, the lady told me she looked at it and there was no chip. She did not offer to redo it and showed no interest in making it right.

Mirror and painted glass backsplash

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY. You will regret it.

Everything was fine until the retail manager I was working with was let go or left this spring. Then, all of a sudden, there was nobody in the business who knew anything about any previous orders. They actually seemed to resent me for having a customer connection to the employee that had left. In addition to taking much longer than they estimated to fulfill my order, the actual installation of a painted glass backsplash was performed in rushed and sloppy manner. They left a messy, massive bead of dirty silicone smeared across the painted walls above the glass. It required a lot of effort to get them to return to deal with that mess.

First, they booked a time they said they would come to complete the task and never showed up, and never called either. Glad I took time off work to wait for them. Then, they showed up on a different day, unannounced, and demanded that my children's caregiver let them into the house to work even though she said they should call me and come at another time. The owner or manager never followed through with me about this job, or the clean up work. Instead, I get a message from the office manager demanding payment for the job. When I left messages expressing my lingering concerns about the work and requesting follow up, nobody called me back.

Several months later, I received a letter from a collection agency demanding payment and threatening to demolish my credit rating if I don't pay right away. I called Gerrard Glass, told them I was willing to settle with them right away if they would deal with my concerns about the work and remove me from the collection agency's list. The clerk told me that there were a big pile of unpaid accounts, dating back a year or more each, that had been sent to debt collection and the owner George decided to throw my account into that pile. We're only five months past our last exchanges. I requested that they reconsider this, and offered to deal with this quickly and directly. They refused, were rude about it, and are forcing me to deal with the debt collectors.

Sound appealing? I've really never witnessed worse customer service. I've now renovated two homes and this has to be the absolute worst conduct on the part of a supplier that I ever experienced.

There are lots of glaziers in town, my advice is that you steer wide of George, the owner, and Gerrard Glass. Buy your glass and mirrors elsewhere. You'll be much happier.

What could this company do to improve their services?
The entire operation is poisoned from the top down by an owner who is out of touch and incapable of offering customer service. I'm not sure there is much that could rescue this operation without overhauling how they conduct business.
Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
Go somewhere else for your glass and mirror needs.

Shower door

I attempted to use this company to replace a damaged shower door that they had originally installed 6 years earlier and they're local to me. I don't know what the problem was but I got tired of the excuses as to why I wasn't get a call back or an official quote. While I attempted to work with local I was much better off using the first company that appeared on my Internet search. This company does measurements with a tape measure and the company I ended up using came in with laser devices to ensure a proper fit.
