Boston Glass & Boarding Service, Inc.

Boston Glass & Boarding Service has been repairing and installing glass out of Dorchester since 1972, when 20-year-old founder Sid Shubert started by boarding up broken storefront windows for commercial clients before growing into full glass installation. The founder passed away in 2012, but the company says it remains family run, and the Better Business Bureau lists it with an A+ grade. The written record, running from 2024 into 2026, leans heavily on responsiveness to broken glass. A 2025 review describes calling on a Wednesday about broken front-porch windows and having a technician out the next day to prep an estimate, with the windows repaired and reinstalled within two days; another describes a rock through a car window on a Friday afternoon getting fixed the same day, with every shard cleaned out of the car. On the commercial side, a construction-company president says the firm has handled everything from broken windows to shower doors to large construction contracts for his company for over 40 years, praising both the office staff and the installers. Other jobs described include mirrors replaced in a school dance studio, with named staff called out specifically, and windows replaced across an office building. The company also does auto glass and holds a listed Massachusetts State Inspection Station certification, and its self-reported service list includes commercial storefront boarding and emergency board-up work alongside residential glass, mirrors, and custom showers. Every review currently on file is positive, with no written complaints in the record. Boston Glass & Boarding reads well across a wide range of glass work, from same-day emergency repairs to long-running commercial accounts.
