I called to have my windshield replaced. I was surprised to talk to a real person and be able to get in the next day! They were about 50 dollars cheaper than the competition as well!!! When there was a problem, they went the extra mile and solved it the same day! Overall very professional and high quality work!

Repair when exactly as planned. Doesn't sound like much, but with a busy schedule, it was a welcome result. Very nice and professional people. I recommend them.

Requested estimate for replacement of a shower enclosure, inspected and an estimate was provided. Accepted the estimate, fabrication was done and installation was scheduled. Job was performed on time, on price and finished product was great. I would highly recommend Rockford auto glass to anyone looking for an updated or new shower enclosure.
