Services
Glass Repair & Replacement
Broken or damaged glass affects your home’s comfort, security, and appearance. The Glass Guru serving Southwest Boise replaces window glass of all types—single-pane, double-pane, and insulated glass units—with quality materials and professional installation.
Foggy Window Repair
Foggy glass between window panes signals a broken seal. We replace the failed glass unit and restore clear, efficient windows—a targeted repair that costs far less than replacing the entire window.
Door Glass & Glass Inserts
We repair and replace glass panels in all door types, including entry doors, patio doors, French doors, and sliding glass doors. We also install decorative door glass inserts to add character and natural light to any entryway.
Mirrors & Custom Glass
From precisely measured bathroom mirrors to large decorative wall mirrors, we cut, finish, and install mirrors for any application. Custom glass cutting is also available for tabletops, furniture, shelving, and specialty projects.
Decorative Glass
Add privacy, texture, or visual interest with decorative glass. We offer frosted, tinted, textured, and etched glass options for windows, doors, cabinet inserts, and architectural features throughout Southwest Boise.
Commercial Glass Services
Storefront glass, office partition glass, commercial door glass, and safety glazing—our commercial team keeps businesses in Southwest Boise running safely and looking professional. We work efficiently to minimize downtime.
Pet Doors & Installations
A pet door cut directly into glass is cleaner and more secure than most alternatives. We handle installations in sliding glass doors, patio doors, and windows throughout Southwest Boise—sizing the opening correctly, fitting the unit, and finishing every edge so the result is solid and weather-tight.
Screen Services
We take care of screen repairs and replacements for windows and doors of all sizes across Southwest Boise. Whether you need a single screen rescreened or a full set of custom screens built for non-standard openings, we measure on site and get the fit right the first time.
Shower Doors & Enclosures
Glass shower enclosures require accurate measurement and careful installation to seal and operate correctly. Our Southwest Boise team handles the full process—site measurement, glass fabrication, hardware selection, and installation—for frameless, semi-frameless, and framed enclosure styles.
Window Restoration & Upgrades
Older windows often just need the right repairs rather than full replacement. We evaluate the condition of existing windows in Southwest Boise homes and address specific failure points—broken sash cords, worn weatherstripping, stuck frames, and failed seals—restoring smooth, efficient operation.
Wood Window Rot Repair
Soft spots, discoloration, and windows that no longer close flush are often signs of frame rot. We identify the full extent of the damage, remove what can’t be saved, treat the area properly, and restore the frame—so the window works correctly and the rot doesn’t return quickly.

How to Remove Hard Water Stains from Shower Glass
If your shower glass always looks cloudy no matter how much you clean it, you’re probably not dealing with soap…
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.
FAQs
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.
