Last week, a Competition Glass driver/installer did some work at our neighbor's, across the street. As he was leaving their driveway, he backed into our garbage can and broke one of our wheels, irreparably. My wife watched as he got out of his truck, picked up our garbage can and kicked the broken wheel into place so it would look like it wasn't broken. He then drove away. It seems to to us that a professional would have knocked on our door, apologized and asked how he could make amends. Not only did he not do that, but here we are, 4 days later and I still have to even receive a return phone

I had great customer service from start to finish. I ordered a custom cut mirror and was given a very fair quote. It was cut quicker than expected, delivered, and installed flawlessly. The technicians who did the installation were very friendly and proficient at their job.

Best glass company in town! Every job Competition does for me is a great experience from start to finish. Pricing is fair, timelines are on point and the installation is always above and beyond expectations. I demand a high level of quality from trades and Competition Glass does not disappoint. I would recommend these guys to anyone!

We could not be happier with our experience with Competition Glass for our custom shower door. Right from my first call with Andras to get an estimate all the way through to install by Mike and Matt, they have been professional and friendly. Our bathroom renovation isn't finished yet, and I'll update this review when it's complete, but you can see the beautiful shower door in the picture. And the amazing part is, their prices were on par with a comparable door from Home Depot! And we didn't have to haul it up the stairs or work through installing it ourselves. If you've gone to the work and expense

If I could give 10 stars I would! We had an emergency situation and Competition Glass came to our rescue in lighting time. The entire team was exceptionally professional, timely and courteous. Ageber (sp?) and Paul, thank you for the crazy fast responses. I cannot recommend this company enough! Extra high fives to Mike and Kane who were amazing, friendly and a pleasure to have on site. Thank you Competition, you have a life-long client over here at Sunshine Leisurescapes!

Excellent service from start to finish. They emailed (a competitive) quote within 24 hours of calling. Set up a date to install front room window. Confirmed time of installation the day before, and installers arrived 15 minutes prior to start the job. Matt/Jamie were friendly, competent and respectful of the property. Will definitely use Competition Glass for future projects.
