Jackson Glass has been a Boston glass shop since 1947, according to the company — starting in the old Jackson Square section of Jamaica Plain, later moving to Washington Street, and now operating out of Roslindale on Cummins Highway. It's a certified Massachusetts Women Business Enterprise, and its work covers commercial and residential glass: storefronts, curtainwalls, frameless showers, mirrors, and window and door glass repair. Reviewers who had a broken or storm-damaged window fixed describe fast turnaround — a 2023 review said the shop repaired a storm-broken window in under two days when other glass shops had quoted two to three weeks, and another described a broken vinyl window fixed in two days rather than the week they'd expected. Two other reviews from late 2022 also praised quick, attentive service. Not every account is positive, though. A November 2024 review described a bay window's seal failing about a week after a tinting job, and said the company responded defensively rather than addressing it; a July 2023 review described an unprofessional exchange over scheduling with someone other than the paying customer. Worth knowing before booking: the company's Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, once held under license #105633, is now expired according to the state registry, and BuildZoom's records date that lapse back to the 1990s. The company's own website separately lists a registration number that hasn't been verified against a state registry. For a straightforward glass or window repair, the shop's speed on recent jobs stands out; given the lapsed home improvement registration and the mixed service experiences above, it's worth confirming current licensing and getting a clear resolution policy in writing before a larger commercial or residential project.
I am incredibly disappointed in the service Jackson Glass provided. About a week after having my bay window tinted, the seal on a window that has never given us problems suddenly failed. I called to have a technician assess it and was met with immediate defensiveness. Instead of scheduling someone to come out or even considering that perhaps the seal was inadvertently cut when my windows were tinted, I was told that tint placed on older windows always speeds up the decline of the windows (a warning not previously offered) yet the research I’ve conducted reflects results that indicate that window film itself, when properly installed, does not contribute to seal failure hence why we engaged “professionals” in the first place. If their assertion is true, I’ll be contacting the MA Office of Consumer Affairs. It is such a deceitful and unethical practice to install something knowing it will expedite the decline of the existing product especially given the winters we have in this area.
Jackson Glass is amazing, when other glass shops said it would take 2-3 weeks to measure and repair our storm broken window, they had the repaired window back to me in under 2 days!
A client of mine had a broken vinyl window that needed to be repaired. I called to confirm that was something they do and their staff was very friendly and helpful on the phone and in person. I was expecting this to take at least a week and it only took them two days. I will definitely be using them for similar repairs and shower enclosures.
very unprofessional company I called to ask what time these people were coming to my apartment although I’m not the one paying they told me to contact my leasing office for the time and date which was today 7/18/23 so I told her I need to know if not No One can come to my apartment then the lady that picks up the phone canceled my appointment today for no reason don’t waste your time here
Fastest and best service I found!
