The nicest and most caring people. Not only were they able to replace my windshield within a timely manner, they also cleaned all the glass out of the inside of my car. Did I mention the sticker that reminds me of when to change my oil was moved to the new windshield as well? Will definitely recommend to others and be back!

Love the customer service! They were willing to go the extra mile to insure as less down time as possible for one of my work vans. I highly recommend this company.

After hearing some many ads on the radio About Shepards glass i had to post my experience with them. I asked for a price on 1/4 inch thick by four foot diameter smoked glass and after four phone calls noone would return my calls so purchass from a competitor.

After we had a rock thrown from the lawnmower shatter the glass door at our church, we were worried we would not find someone to be able to replace it quickly. We called Sheppard's and Calvin came out within 30 minutes.then measured.and returned with the glass within 15 minutes. The entire repair was almost quicker than we could write the check to pay for it! I was extremely impressed with the promptness and professionalism of this company. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Hopefully we will not need any more doors replaced anytime soon, but I will continue to use Sheppard's for any other glass needs!

This was my first time having to take my car somewhere to get the windshield replaced because it's new and has sensors that have to be reset when getting the windshield replaced. The staff was very courteous, understanding, and patient with me because I had to reschedule dropping off my vehicle twice due hospitalizations. My windshield has never looked better and my vehicle sensors are working like they did when I first bought the car. I highly recommend them!
