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.
FAQs
Can you work with older or historic windows?
Yes. We have experience with a variety of window types, including older and historic styles. We balance preservation with practical improvements where possible.
What is low-e glass?
Low-e (low emissivity) glass has a special coating that reduces heat transfer while allowing light through. It improves energy efficiency and is available for many applications.
Do I need a permit for glass replacement?
Permit requirements vary by location and project scope. We can advise based on your specific situation and local regulations.
How do you ensure a proper fit for replacement glass?
We take precise measurements and verify specifications before ordering glass. Proper measurement is essential to a successful installation.

In many cases, yes. We can install glass inserts or panels in doors designed to accept them. We assess the door and discuss options with you.
