# Downeast Glass and Overhead Door

**Trade:** Windows / Siding / Gutters · **Address:** 93 US-1, Baring, ME 04694 · **Phone:** (207) 454-7767 · **Website:** https://www.degmaine.com/ · **Languages:** English

**Rating: 2.9/5** (low confidence) — from 4 reviews across 5 sources.

## The honest read

In September 2026, Rick and crew replaced four custom-ordered windows in a customer's Calais home, doing all the work themselves rather than farming it out to a third party. Downeast Glass and Overhead Door is based in Baring, and its site describes fast, mobile auto glass service plus glass for homes and businesses, with free estimates. In a March 2024 review, Rick and Emily processed a customer's insurance claim and installed their window.

A customer who wrote in October 2025 said they had ordered a piece of glass for an RV the previous October, that it took nearly six months and several reminder calls before anyone came to measure it, that the glass had still not been ordered three months after the promised three weeks, and that once it arrived they were told to wait until the company had time to schedule the install. In October 2023, a customer who got a quote online said the company did not get back to them about needed parts, and when they called a week later the quote was much higher than another price they found for the same warranty.

Google shows 4.1 stars from 30 ratings.

**Strengths:**
- Window replacement — four custom windows installed in a Calais home, 2026
- Own crew — the 2026 job was not farmed out

**Concerns:**
- Slow follow-through — 2025 customer waited a year on an RV glass order
- Quote follow-up — 2023 customer heard nothing back, then got a high price
