Inner City Glass Co

About

Inner City Glass is a Dorchester glass shop that fabricates, delivers and installs all types of flat glass. Its work includes frameless shower doors and enclosures, tub enclosures, mirrors, glass shelves, table and desk tops, insulated and tempered safety glass, aluminum doors and entrances, and vinyl and aluminum replacement windows. The shop also repairs inoperable windows as well as stained and leaded glass.

The owner’s family has worked in the flat glass business since 1927, and he started Inner City Glass in 1978. The company describes itself as small enough to take care of the minute details, and most of its business today comes from referrals rather than advertising, with new customers often arriving after seeing its work for their friends. It contrasts its permanent location with fly-by-night glass outfits that are hard to reach when a job goes wrong.
