We had a 60 year old wood frame window that got broken. I called banks glass and they were out within a week and fixed it immediately at a very reasonable price. Professional, friendly, 5* service. Thank you!!

I highly recommend Banks glass. When our french doors were installed by other contractors, they never worked properly, even after numerous adjustments. Jon Banks took a personal interest in the dilemma. He sent out Clayton who identified the issue which others did not notice, and now the door works perfectly. Personal touch, knowledgable employees and professionalism. You can't find a better business.

No call back to phone messages and now disconnected every time I call. Don't think they are in business.

I hired Banks Glass to replace all of my windows and sliding door in my home. Their residential team did an amazing job and the crew was excellent to work with. They came out to measure twice ahead of installation and all 28 windows fit perfectly, which I found very impressive. Scheduling was a few months out due to COVID, but worked well since I had another contractor doing the prep work on the stucco. The crew was very experience, on time every day, and completed the project a day early. They were very clean and paid close attention to detail. I am very pleased with the finished results and glad
