Absolutely horrible business practices. They quote me a time frame to complete a small cabinet door of 1 day. Then they change it to it has to dry overnight. I call close to the end of the business day to inquire. Then they tell me it won't be ready for another 3days. If time matters to you at all go somewhere else. The manager Rachel just wants you to come waste your time driving back and forth to get unrealistic quotes.

Today Raymond from Action Glass and two other workers replaced five window sashes at the Corinthian in New York City. They were excellent. They finished all five windows quickly. The windows were caulked perfectly. The glass is perfectly clear. This is our third job with Action Glass. They are the only company that management at the Corinthian recommends. The price was very fair in today's market place. Overall five stars. Great job Action Glass.

We worked with Ken and his team at Action Glass and they were professional and detail oriented. Their price was fair and the work spoke for itself. Where they really showed their true colors was in accommodating us when we required additional work done after the fact. They helped us out when we really needed it, and that's a rare occurrence in these times. In our experience, Action Glass, went above and beyond. They're a family owned business who carry themselves in a personable and approachable manner and that goes a long way when dealing with the frustrations of home ownership. I highly recommend them.

The worst company ever I had. They have no professionalism at all in customer service and even the guy who fix the window. They only care about money. They made me to call them 6 times to get fix a window. It's a long story to explain.

We chose Action Glass to fabricate and install a steam shower enclosure with louvered panels. We worked with Ken and could not be happier with the results. I'm surprised by the reviews of untimeliness as Action Glass scheduled our appointment and stuck with it. They were prompt, communicated throughout the process, and stood by their schedule. Ken came at the scheduled day and time to take measurements for an estimate and masterfully fitted for our extremely out of plumb walls and ceiling. Ken outlined the timeframe for fabrication and install and delivered on his word. I'm extremely pleased with the outcome and look forward to working with Ken and Action Glass again. As an added bonus, Ken is just a nice guy who you'll actually enjoy working with.

One of the employees damaged my vehicle while parking. I have security footage of the incident. When i approached him he had told me that he didn't do it and he doesn't care. I told him again that there is video footage and he refused to comply and give me insurance information. The police had to be contacted in order for him to comply and give me the insurance information. I called the main office and they told me "it is not our problem, call police".

Completely refused to try and resolve the situation. I have notified the Better Business Bureau to let them know the way the company handles these situations. Completely unprofessional and unacceptable. UPDATE THE OWNER OF THE VEHICLE HAS LEFT THE SEEN AND DIDN'T BOTHER TO GIVE INSURANCE INFORMATION, KNOWING THE POLICE ARE ON THE WAY.
