Services
Glass Repair & Replacement
From single broken panes to complete window glass replacement, The Glass Guru serving South Uptown 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 South Uptown can replace the failed glass unit and restore clarity—often at a fraction of the cost of full window replacement.

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 South Uptown.

Dan and Rachell Cook,
Owners

We are excited to introduce ourselves to the East Minneapolis community! We are Dan and Rachell Cook, the proud owners of The Glass Guru in Duluth, Minnesota.
We opened our first Glass Guru (Duluth) in 2016 with a focus on happy customers. We found having happy customers to be an extremely rewarding and gratifying experience. It soon became a passion that we both shared. The development of a family business was just as important, and The Glass Guru has always been supportive.
Our son Tristan has worked with us since the age of 16 and has now grown into the Designated Manager for Duluth, while our son-in-law is the lead glazier. We embrace “Minnesota nice,” and naturally, we knew our next location would be the beautiful city of Minneapolis. Minneapolis provides the perfect opportunity for us to continue our most important passion: Happy Customers.
When not working to achieve happy customers, we enjoy sailing, ballroom dancing, traveling, and spending time with our family (including our Maine Coon, Tobias). We look forward to meeting you and to providing everything The Glass Guru has to offer. See you soon!
FAQs
How quickly can you respond to a glass service request?
Response times depend on current scheduling and the nature of your request. We prioritize urgent situations and work to accommodate all customers as quickly as possible.
What is insulated glass and why does it matter?
Insulated glass units consist of two or more panes separated by a sealed air space. This design improves energy efficiency by reducing heat transfer, lowering heating and cooling costs.
Can you repair a crack or does the glass need to be replaced?
Small chips may sometimes be repaired, but cracks generally require glass replacement to ensure safety and integrity. We assess each situation individually.
Do you provide written quotes?
Yes. All quotes are provided in writing with clear details about the work to be performed and associated costs.
What makes The Glass Guru different from other glass companies?
We combine experienced specialists, honest recommendations, quality materials, and a commitment to customer satisfaction. We focus on doing the job right, not just making a sale.
