This review will touch on several aspects of my experience there:…read moreWhen I entered the store, there was one woman at her desk behind the counter. She got up and I explained to her what I needed: All I needed was a small pane of glass, 4 x 13 inches. I had brought a sample glass, which I asked them to replicate, but!!! to just make the new one 1/8 " slimmer than the original, along the 13 inch side. After I had told her all of that, she said that she was not the one who needed to know, but that she needed to call a technician from the back. However, before she could do that, I needed to pay: $ 9.72 for the little pane of glass...OK, no problem... I need it! I tended her my credit card. She refused it, saying they only take cash under 20 $. Well, my car was parked a little stretch away, since they don't have a parking lot. I said to her that while I was getting the cash from my car, she could maybe have them cut the glass, to save time?? NO, not possible. First pay, then service... was her answer. I walked out to get my purse, returned and paid in cash. Then she called a technician from the back. The elderly employee took notes on a pad, of what I wanted, then proceeded to the back of the place, where they manufacture the orders. The female employee pointed me to the exit door and told me to go to the side of the building where there is another door, and this is where they would hand me the new glass pane. So I am standing outside, in the sweltering heat (100 F that day!)... with the brick wall and the sidewalk reflecting the heat at me, no shade tree... and sweating, waiting... after about 15 minutes, I got my glass pane. I checked it and it was exactly the size of the original, not 1/8" narrower! Return inside, explain what's wrong... repeat of the first part... waiting... another technician comes back and hands me the new pane: it is 1/8" shorter now, not 1/8" narrower! Reclamation on my part. They go back and do it again....now the new version is 1/8" shorter AND 1/8" narrower.... somebody help me!!! Next round and finally, I get the correct size pane. At that point, I could not refrain from making a comment to the front employee about how this experience was anything but customer friendly to me. She took offense at that! No "sorry" no nothing! I will make sure to never even accidentally step into that store again. There is another glass cutting store about 2 blocks further down. I'll go there next time.

It seems I am not alone in this post. The customer service is HORRIBLE! I needed a double pane…read morewindow replaced. When I dropped my window off, I explained that I work and would be getting there right before 4pm to pick it up. The lady said "That's no problem! We are open till 4." I started calling at 340 to tell them I was on my way, no answer. Then when I got there at 3:54pm, EVERYONE was gone! So, I went back the next morning and explained what happened. The guy laughed and said "Guess they dipped out early on ya!" and laughed again. As a paying customer, that is not funny. I wasted my time leaving early from work to pick it up and had to go into work late the next day to actually get the window I had already paid for. From now on, I will be going anywhere but here! Hopefully someone looking for a repair will seek out reviews and chose to go somewhere else too! They do not deserve your business!

Stopped here and got a quote for less than the plexi and available in a few hours! Saved me money and got me a great looking replacement! Nice value and a local company. After picking it up, realized we measured wrong and needed the piece cut down more. They asked me to bring the door and cut it perfectly in less than an hour! Great service and actually communication! Hope I don't need replacement glass anytime soon, but will go here first next time!

I ordered a piece of glass for a table top and I have never seen worse quality. The edgework is…read moredull, flat, and uneven, with visible waves running through it. Looking down the side of the glass, you can clearly see every imperfection. I have been a customer of Metro Glass for over 20 years, but in the last 5-6 years the quality has gone downhill dramatically. Nearly every order I've placed has had something wrong--pieces cut too large, measurements not matching the specs I provided, and poor finishing work. This latest order was especially disappointing. There was an oily residue along the edge of the glass that smeared when wiped away, leaving the edge looking cloudy. When I asked about it, I was told it was because the edges are "hand ground." To me, it looks more like outdated work from the 1950s than the quality I used to expect. Out of frustration, I reordered the exact same piece of glass from Kirkwood, and the difference was night and day. The edge was clean, clear, and perfectly straight--the way it should have been the first time. After years of loyalty, I can honestly say the craftsmanship and attention to detail at Metro Glass are no longer there.

I had a very frustrating experience with this company. The installer, Robert, showed up very late…read moreto the appointment and never even called to let me know. I had to call the office myself to figure out what was going on. Robert assured me he could replace the fogged glass unit in my front door and claimed he'd done this "for years." He did not explain the process at all. I later found out my door is a Peachtree door, which is not meant to be serviced this way. Instead of telling me that, Rob went ahead and cut the glass out of the door, claiming it would "look the same." It absolutely does not. The result looks terrible--there's silicone smeared all over the door, and the overall finish is a mess. Had I known this would be a hack job, I would have replaced the entire door for just a bit more money. To make matters worse, when I tried to speak to the owner to file a complaint, I found out Robert is the owner--he just doesn't want customers to know that. He even tried to blame the poor work on a junior technician. Completely unprofessional from start to finish. I do not recommend this company.

Imagine the horror when I receive my antique Italian umbrella stand from Europe in the mail and the…read moresmoked glass is completely broken. A piece that sells for $5,000 on 1stDibs and here it is shattered. I immediately started looking for someone to replicate the glass. Two other places I called were very rude on the phone. Chippewa Glass was nice enough so I brought it in. They actually had to order the glass, to my surprise, and it took a month (they said 2 weeks) but it matches pretty well. The side bevel is slightly different but probably only I will notice. The value of my antique may be diminished but at least I can enjoy it. I wonder if I could have ordered it from someone myself and cut out the middle man? 50% payment is due up front and they take credit cards, no fee. I had to call and ask about it several times but I did get it and I'm happy.

After a quick internet search, I found Hyperion Glass Company located conveniently near our home. Last week, I stopped by their office with a sample shelf to see if they could replicate it. Even though it was a small job, they were happy to help. They provided a quote on the spot, and I left a deposit to get things started. I was told it would take about a week or so to complete, but to my surprise, I received a call just a few days later letting me know the shelves were ready. The turnaround time was faster than expected! The staff was friendly, professional, and very helpful throughout the process. If you're looking for custom glass cutting, I'd definitely recommend Hyperion Glass Company.
