GlassTek

These guys are fast, efficient, helpful, pleasant and honest. They have worked on replaced glass and fixed chips on both of our cars and we wouldn’t go anywhere else!

Quick, efficient, and knowledgable. And most importantly, they answer their phone and return calls! My car had a smash-​n-​grab (except they didn’t grab anything! Jeez!) and 2 hours later, I had a new window that looked like it was installed by the factory. Thanks, GlassTek!

I had a great experience here! My passenger window was smashed Friday night in SF, I called around Sat morning to see who could replace it.
Two things made me try GlassTek initially. First, they were $ 30 cheaper than the places than the other places I called in Alameda. Second, they were really helpful and engaging over the phone. They said they were booked but they could get it done if I was able to leave it for the day. I drove my car there and left it with them at 11am and they had the window replaced and the car vacuumed by 3pm. Not bad for a Saturday!
If I ever had to get any work done again, I would go here again without a doubt!

The five-​star ratings are not exaggerated. A large rock cracked my windshield. My deductible is $ 500. I checked Unilocal in Alameda. GlassTek provided a great quote in less than an hour and got me in the same day. The installation took 41 minutes. Marcel, who runs the place, wears a headset while working so he can always respond to customers.
And the place is modern, clean, and has room for 6 in the waiting area.

Messed up my window. Had to bring it somewhere else to get it fixed properly.

Off the hook experience, these guys were straight to the point My King Ranch super duty was in and out with a new windshield in one hour and 45 minutes. I highly highly highly recommend this place. They do all of our government vehicles as well. This was an insurance job, The process was smooth, The telephone call with Safelite was maybe three minutes long and WALA, glass goes in. A+ Service you guys thanks again!

Super friendly service, the cost of my windshield replacement was actually less than the quote and they were done on time! Great place!

Had a great experience at glass tek the guys were super friendly and they did a great job on my windshield Chris you rock so did everyone else even though my baby gave you guys a though time you guy went out of your way to make her look beautiful thank you!

Marcel was very professional and down to earth. I thought it would be very expensive to replace my windshield in my 67 ford Galaxie convertible. It came out fantastic and the price was great too! It took a bit of extra work to do it but I am very happy AND about a year ago he helped me extinguish a fire in my Galaxie which I am forever grateful. Local service does good! Thank you!

Just this week, I got my windshield replaced and my rear view driver mirror as well. Well done, very fast, and great customer service. The owner takes pride in his work. I felt like they were doing the best they could, giving the all around quality one would want with their own car. I would recommend this place. Granted, it’s only been a couple of days but it looks like the windshield will hold up and the mirror is working just fine. Check this place out!

From the quote to installation everything looked great until I looked In the car on the ground and found glass still on the floor. Before dropping my car off I had done the majority of the vacuuming and there wasn’t any glass left and I’m home inspecting the floor and seat and yea more glass. Overall price is great but don’t be surprised to find extra bits of glass laying around and parts being loose

Marcel is really on his game! Quick to answer the phone, quick to provide a quote, quick to adjust his price as I got other bids. His eventual quote was still higher than my lowest quote, but I didn’t want to go with the low guy. I didn’t like the low bidder’s reviews or location and I wanted to keep my business in Alameda. He was even quick to my car when I pulled up for the repair at 9am… I hadn’t even taken the transmission out of reverse when I backed into a space in his lot as he greeted me. He even had my work order ready to go on his clipboard. This guy and his technicians are well-​organized and apparently experienced. The shop is clean. The job took less than the estimated 1.5 hr and I was on my way! I know these guys are just putting glass in cars, but they CARE about what they are doing. Thanks, guys!

Excellent job. Had a broken rear window and Marcel helped get the job done even when it was a really busy day. Thank you Glass Tek!

Great service, fast repair and quality job. They came highly recommend by a friend and I would pass that along too.

My other car got a a big chip in the windshield. Knew I was going to GlassTek. Called in morning and was told a lighter time would be later in afternoon around 4pm. Got there by 4:30, Marcel came right out and took care of the chip quickly, professionally. In/​out in 15 minutes. Took longer to wait for insurance company do their scripted thing. Chip is much smaller and less visible– but should prevent cracking. Planning on keeping this car much longer, so out of curiosity, asked for quote on new windshield. Seemed reasonable. Hopefully won’t have to explore that option for a long while.

Great service, super fast, reasonable price. I’ll be back again should the need arise.

No need to pile on with more great reviews.
Fast, honest, local, cool.

Good location and nice people. They replaced my windshield and everything went very well.

Literally can’t explain how much I appreciate this business & Marcel. This is my third maybe 4^th time with a smashed window on the same car (thank you oakland).
Although getting a window smashed in sucks, I don’t have to freak out about taking care of it because I already know I can rely on this place. Gave them a call this AM around 9:30, to which Marcel was super helpful and even remembered me from previous service, dropped my car off by 10, and had a call from him saying it was ready by 11:15. Just amazing. It’s so nice knowing that these guys provide excellent dependable service, it’s one less thing to stress about. & on top of that they are super helpful to find an affordable piece of glass instead of charging an arm & a leg.
Thank you so much!
Once again, I highly recommend this place to anyone! & I know I’ll be back if it happens again.

Teenage son called me late Friday evening to tell me that our car and a friend’s car were broken into (in Nikko’s Diner parking lot — consider yourself warned!). Having had previous car work done at a body shop in Alameda, I returned to them to see what could be done. They immediately told me that they refer all of their glasswork to GlassTek. Since all I had was a broken passenger row window on my ’11 Ford Edge, I figured I had nothing to lose. After pulling into the lot, I was immediately given a quote (which I found more than acceptable) and an apology that they couldn’t service me right away (it was Saturday early afternoon by the time we were able to make it to the shop). Was told the earliest they could do was Monday and if we dropped the car off in the morning, it would be ready by the time he was out of school… or shortly thereafter.
My son dropped dropped the car off on his way to school in the morning. I then get a call at 10:15am letting me know the car is done. My son then returns after school to pick up the car and then he pays its $ 20 less than the quote. So ready earlier and cheaper than quoted — not a bad combination.
While I did appreciate the car being ready earlier than stated, it would have been better if I would have known that the car could have been done before lunch. As the only car we have, I had to re-​arrange my work schedule including a lunch meeting with my out of town manager (out of the country, actually). It would have been better for me if I knew there was a chance to get the car back earlier. So personally, I would have preferred to had gotten a bit more accurate availability quote but all-​in-​all I really have no complaints.
Strongly recommend this business. Definitely the first place I’ll turn to for my auto glass needs in the future. It should be yours too.
Nice work!
