Services
Glass Repair & Replacement
From single broken panes to complete window glass replacement, The Glass Guru serving East Charlotte handles it all. We work with single-pane, double-pane, and insulated glass units (IGUs)—restoring security, energy efficiency, and appearance to any window.
Foggy & Failed Seal Repair
Fogged or cloudy glass is a sign that the insulated seal has broken down. Our team in East Charlotte can replace the failed glass unit and restore clarity—often at a fraction of the cost of full window replacement.
Custom Cut Glass
Need glass cut to a specific shape or size? We fabricate custom glass for tabletops, shelves, cabinet inserts, display cases, and specialty projects. Choose from clear, tempered, frosted, tinted, or decorative options.
Mirrors
Custom mirrors add light and dimension to any room. We size, cut, and professionally install bathroom mirrors, vanity mirrors, full-length mirrors, and decorative wall mirrors throughout East Charlotte.
Door Glass
We repair and replace glass in all door types—entry doors, patio doors, sliding doors, French doors, and interior doors. Door glass inserts are available to add style and light to solid wood or fiberglass doors.
Commercial Glass
Businesses in East Charlotte rely on The Glass Guru for storefront glass, office partition glass, commercial door glass, and safety glazing. We work around business hours to complete projects with minimal disruption.
Pet Doors & Installations
Giving your pet reliable access in and out shouldn’t mean compromising your home. Our East Charlotte team cuts and frames pet door openings directly in glass—sliding doors, patio doors, and windows—with clean edges and a secure finish that holds up to daily use.
Screen Services
Window screens take more abuse than most people notice. We repair bent frames, replace torn mesh, and build custom screens for non-standard openings throughout East Charlotte. Solar screen upgrades are available for rooms that get heavy afternoon sun.
Shower Doors & Enclosures
A well-fitted glass shower enclosure changes the whole feel of a bathroom. We measure, fabricate, and install frameless, semi-frameless, and framed shower doors in East Charlotte—built to your space with your choice of hardware finish.
Window Restoration & Upgrades
Windows that stick, rattle, or draft aren’t necessarily worth replacing. Our East Charlotte team inspects existing windows and addresses the actual problem—worn balances, failed seals, damaged hardware, or compromised frames—extending window life at a fraction of replacement cost.
Wood Window Rot Repair
Rot in window frames spreads quietly and causes real structural damage if left alone. We remove deteriorated wood, treat the affected area, and restore the frame so your windows operate correctly and look right—without full replacement.

James Vandenbulcke,
Owner
Hello. I’m James Vandenbulcke, and I’m proud to serve the Matthews, North Carolina community as the owner of The Glass Guru.
Originally from Matthews, I’ve built a career spanning more than 30 years in marketing across a variety of industries. Most recently, I served as a Senior Director for a global window and door manufacturer, where I led teams across digital, creative, product management, brand, and social media. That experience gave me a deep understanding of both the products we offer and the importance of delivering a strong, customer-focused experience.
After years in corporate leadership, I was ready for something more hands-on—an opportunity to contribute directly, build something of my own, and connect more closely with my local community. The Glass Guru provided the perfect fit, combining industry familiarity with the challenge and reward of small business ownership.
What I enjoy most is helping customers solve real problems in their homes and businesses while building lasting relationships in the community. It’s incredibly rewarding to be part of a business where the work we do makes a visible difference.
When I’m not working, you’ll likely find me woodworking, exercising, playing golf, or out enjoying live music around town.
Thank you for the opportunity to earn your business. We look forward to serving you.
