Services
Window Glass Services
The Glass Guru serving Northwest Boise provides complete window glass solutions—from emergency single-pane replacements to full insulated glass unit (IGU) upgrades. Damaged or inefficient glass is replaced quickly to restore comfort and curb appeal.
Foggy Window Seal Repair
Condensation between glass panes means the insulated seal has failed. Rather than replacing the entire window, our Northwest Boise team can replace just the glass unit—saving money while fully restoring the window’s performance and appearance.
Decorative & Custom Glass
We offer custom glass cutting and a wide selection of decorative glass for any application—frosted privacy glass, tinted glass, textured glass, etched glass, and specialty options. Perfect for interior design, cabinet accents, or architectural features.
Mirrors
Whether you need a simple bathroom mirror or a large custom wall mirror, our team delivers precise measurement, professional cutting, and clean installation. We serve residential and commercial clients throughout Northwest Boise.
Door Glass & Glass Inserts
Broken door glass is a safety and security concern we address fast. We replace glass in patio doors, entry doors, sliding glass doors, and interior doors. Decorative glass inserts are also available to refresh the look of any door.
Commercial Glass
From retail storefronts to office buildings, our commercial glass services keep Northwest Boise businesses looking sharp and operating safely. We handle storefront glass, commercial door glass, interior partitions, and safety glazing.
Pet Doors & Installations
Pet door installation in glass requires precision cutting and clean framing to get right. Our Northwest Boise team handles the full job—measuring the opening, cutting the glass, fitting the door unit, and finishing the surround so the result looks built-in and holds up long term.
Screen Services
A torn or missing screen is a small problem that gets annoying fast. We handle screen repairs, full rescreens, and custom screen fabrication for windows and doors throughout Northwest Boise. If your existing frames are bent or damaged beyond repair, we build new ones to fit.
Shower Doors & Enclosures
Custom shower glass turns a functional space into something worth showing off. We design and install frameless and semi-frameless shower enclosures in Northwest Boise, working from your bathroom’s exact dimensions to ensure a precise fit and a clean, watertight result.
Window Restoration & Upgrades
A window that doesn’t seal, balance, or operate correctly is costing you money and comfort. Before replacing it, let our Northwest Boise team evaluate what’s actually wrong. In many cases, targeted repairs to hardware, seals, or sash components restore full performance at far less cost.
Wood Window Rot Repair
Once rot takes hold in a window frame it doesn’t stop on its own. Our team cuts out the deteriorated sections, treats the exposed wood, and restores the frame to solid condition—addressing the problem at the source rather than masking it.

Benjamin Swett,
Owner

Hello. I’m Benjamin Swett, and I’m proud to serve the Boise, Idaho community as the owner of The Glass Guru.
Originally from North Highlands, California, I earned a degree in Management Information Systems from Sacramento State and went on to build a successful 28-year career in the mortgage industry. Starting in loan origination and eventually leading large sales teams, I gained extensive experience in customer service, sales leadership, and business operations. In recent years, I operated as an independent mortgage broker, focusing on delivering personalized, high-quality service directly to my clients.
As I looked toward the future, I saw a unique opportunity in the skilled trades—an industry with growing demand and a strong need for trusted providers. The Glass Guru stood out as a proven model backed by experienced leadership and a strong reputation. Having a personal connection to the brand and seeing its long-term success made the decision a natural one.
What I enjoy most about owning a Glass Guru franchise is the ability to take a respected brand and add a personal touch, building relationships while delivering real value to customers. Helping homeowners and businesses improve their spaces with reliable, high-quality solutions is incredibly rewarding.
Outside of work, I stay active year-round with snowboarding, mountain biking, distance running, offshore sport fishing, and golf. You’ll also often find me at live music events—concerts are a favorite pastime.
Thank you for the opportunity to earn your business. We look forward to serving you.
