Services
Window Glass Replacement
Our Aloha team replaces broken, cracked, or inefficient window glass quickly and correctly. We work with all glass types—single-pane, dual-pane, tempered, and insulated glass units (IGUs)—to restore performance and appearance.
Foggy Window Repair
Cloudy or fogged windows are a sign that the insulating seal has failed. We replace the glass unit to restore clarity and energy efficiency without the expense of full window replacement.
Custom & Decorative Glass
We fabricate custom glass to exact dimensions for furniture, shelving, cabinet faces, display cases, and specialty applications. Our decorative glass selection includes frosted, tinted, etched, and patterned glass for both function and design.
Mirror Services
Custom mirrors are a specialty. We measure, cut, and install bathroom mirrors, vanity mirrors, decorative wall mirrors, and large-format mirrors for residential and commercial spaces throughout Aloha.
Door Glass Repair
Entry door glass, patio door panels, sliding door glass, and interior door glass—we repair and replace them all. Decorative inserts are available if you want to update the look of a door at the same time.
Commercial Glass
The Glass Guru supports businesses across Aloha with storefront glazing, glass door repairs, commercial window replacement, and safety glass installations. Fast response times and minimal disruption to your operations.
Pet Doors & Installations
Freedom for your pet doesn’t have to mean a drafty or unsecured opening. We install pet doors directly in glass panels throughout Aloha—patio doors, sliding doors, and windows—cutting to the correct size, fitting the frame, and sealing everything tight so the door performs like it was always part of the glass.
Screen Services
From a single torn screen to a whole house worth of replacements, we handle screen work of any scale in Aloha. We rescreen existing frames, replace bent or damaged frames entirely, and fabricate custom screens for openings that standard sizes don’t fit. Solar and pet-resistant mesh available on request.
Shower Doors & Enclosures
We build shower enclosures around your bathroom, not the other way around. Our Aloha team measures the space, fabricates the glass to fit, and installs frameless, semi-frameless, or framed enclosures with hardware finishes matched to your existing fixtures. Clean lines, proper seals, no leaks.
Window Restoration & Upgrades
Windows that are drafty, hard to open, or rattling in their frames usually have fixable problems. Our Aloha team diagnoses what’s actually failing—whether that’s a worn balance, damaged weatherstripping, a warped sash, or a failed seal—and makes targeted repairs that restore performance without the expense of new windows.
Wood Window Rot Repair
Frame rot is one of those problems that looks minor until you press on it. Our team assesses the full scope of damage, removes compromised material down to solid wood, treats the area to stop further deterioration, and rebuilds the frame to a condition that supports proper window operation and a clean appearance.

When Does a Patio Door Need Repair vs. Replacement?
Your patio door sticks. It drags across the track. Maybe it doesn’t lock properly anymore—or you can feel air coming…
Coming Soon,
Owner
Hi, we’re Tom and Joe Ruble, the father-and-son team behind The Glass Guru of West Portland.
For more than a decade, we’ve talked about the idea of going into business together. We both wanted the opportunity to build something meaningful—something that would allow us to serve others, create a lasting legacy, and have more control over our future. In 2026, that vision became a reality when we opened The Glass Guru of West Portland.
While Tom leads the day-to-day operations and works directly with our customers, Joe provides the business leadership and strategic support behind the scenes. Together, we combine decades of business experience with a shared commitment to integrity, hard work, and exceptional customer service.
Tom grew up in Denver, Colorado, graduated from Regis Jesuit High School, and earned his degree in History from the University of Oregon in 2016. He has called Portland home since 2018. Before joining The Glass Guru, Tom spent nearly 10 years in SaaS compliance sales, helping Fortune 1000 companies make ethical business decisions. That experience reinforced the importance of trust, honesty, and doing the right thing—values that are at the heart of how we serve every customer.
Joe brings more than 40 years of leadership experience in the technology and media industries. After earning degrees in Political Science, Business, and Law from Ohio University and The Catholic University of America, he built a career leading businesses and helping organizations grow. While much of his work has been in technology, he was excited by the opportunity to build a hands-on business that allows us to work directly with homeowners, solve real problems, and make a positive impact in the community.
What drew us to The Glass Guru was finding a franchise that offered the support of an established brand while giving us the independence to build our own business. Just as importantly, we found a company whose values aligned with ours and a team that genuinely cares about helping people.
For Joe, one of the most rewarding parts of this journey has been the opportunity to finally go into business with his son after talking about it for so many years. For Tom, it’s about building something meaningful alongside family while serving the Portland community he proudly calls home.
When we’re not working, Tom enjoys cycling, skiing at Mt. Hood Meadows, exploring Forest Park, and spending time outdoors with his wife, Michelle. Joe enjoys flying airplanes, cooking for family and friends, boating, golfing, and making the most of the outdoors whenever he can.
Whether you meet Tom in your home or Joe working behind the scenes to support our team, our goal is the same: to provide honest advice, exceptional workmanship, and customer service you can trust. We look forward to earning your business and serving the West Portland community for years to come.
Frequently Asked Questions About Our Glass Services
What types of glass do you work with?
We work with standard float glass, tempered glass, laminated glass, insulated glass units, decorative glass, and specialty options. Our team will recommend the right type for your application.
Can foggy windows be repaired or do they need to be replaced?
Often, foggy windows can be repaired by addressing the seal failure. We assess each situation and recommend repair when it makes sense, or replacement when it provides better long-term value.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. We provide free on-site estimates for most projects so you can make an informed decision.
What is the difference between tempered and laminated glass?
Tempered glass is heat-treated for strength and breaks into small, safer pieces. Laminated glass has a plastic interlayer that holds fragments together if broken. We will recommend the appropriate type based on your needs and local codes.
Can I schedule service on weekends?
Scheduling availability varies. Contact us to discuss options that work with your schedule.
