In Fremont we fix broken and cracked glass
Roxy Glass repairs and replaces residential and commercial glass throughout Fremont, from the Niles and Mission San Jose historic districts to the Ardenwood and Warm Springs subdivisions. Our shop is in Newark, directly next to Fremont, so this is the closest market we serve. Estimates are free.
Free estimates, no obligation. (510) 400-7788 is our East Bay line.
Roxy Glass does not have premises in Fremont. We serve the city from our shop at 7401 Morton Avenue, Suite A, Newark, CA 94560, which is where glass is cut and where every job across the Bay Area is dispatched from. Calls for Fremont are answered on (510) 400-7788. See the Newark shop.
Local conditions
Our shop is at 7401 Morton Avenue in Newark, which shares a border with Fremont. Of every market we cover, Fremont is the one we can reach most easily, and that shows in scheduling rather than in price. Glass is cut at that shop, so a straightforward Fremont job does not involve a long run across the bay before anything can start.
It also means that if you want to describe a piece of glass to us in person, or drop off a small panel to be matched, Fremont is the city where that is genuinely practical. See the Newark shop, opening hours and directions.
Fremont was formed from five older towns, and each of them still has its own building stock. Niles in particular holds late Victorian and early twentieth century buildings with single pane glass in wood sash. Those windows have no sealed unit and therefore never fog. They crack, and their putty and glazing beads perish, and the obscure and textured glass in them takes matching rather than a straight swap.
Mission San Jose and Irvington mix older homes with later infill, so two houses on the same street can need completely different work. When you call, telling us the era of the house is more useful than telling us the district.
Glenmoor, Sundale, Cabrillo, Parkmont, Brookvale and the later Ardenwood and Warm Springs developments account for most of our foggy window work in Fremont. These homes were built and glazed in batches, with aluminum framed sliders and early sealed units, and sealed units of the same age fail at similar times.
That is why a Fremont homeowner who notices one hazy window very often finds two or three more once they walk the property looking for it. Check every elevation before you call, because measuring several units in one visit is considerably cheaper than booking us three times.
Homes on the Mission San Jose and Weibel hillsides were often built to take the view west across the bay, which means large fixed picture windows and sliding glass doors. Large panes at height are a different job from a bedroom window. They frequently require tempered safety glass, they are made to order, and fitting them safely takes more people and sometimes access equipment.
Fremont also sits at the mouth of Niles Canyon and catches the wind that funnels through it. Wind driven debris is a genuine cause of cracked and broken glass on exposed elevations here in a way it is not in more sheltered cities.
Roxy Glass works throughout Fremont, including Niles, Mission San Jose, Irvington, Centerville, Warm Springs, Ardenwood, Glenmoor, Sundale, Cabrillo, Brookvale, Parkmont and Weibel.
Coverage and eligibility
Fremont sits inside the Roxy Glass service area, so there is no minimum job size, no travel surcharge and no separate call out fee for the city.
The glass, not the distance. Standard clear glass in a common size is cut at the Newark shop. Sealed double pane units, tempered safety glass and made to order shapes are fabricated to your measurements, which is what sets the lead time.
Roxy Glass does not publish arrival times, because traffic across the Bay Area makes any printed figure unreliable.
A rough size, a photograph of the opening if you have one, and access. For a straightforward pane you can measure it yourself and we will tell you how. For anything frameless, structural or made to order, Roxy Glass measures on site, because the opening is rarely square.
What we do here
Every service Roxy Glass offers is available in Fremont. These are the ones that come up most often in this part of the Bay Area.
Fog, haze or streaks trapped between the panes means the sealed unit has failed. The glass unit is replaced, not the window.

The work itself
Every job is measured at the property and the glass is cut at the Newark shop, then fitted and checked before the visit ends.
What happens next
Call the line for your area or send the estimate form. A photo of the damage and a rough measurement lets us tell you straight away whether it is a glass only repair or a full replacement.
Glass is cut to the opening, not to a catalog size, so the measurement has to be exact. For most jobs we measure on site. For a simple pane you can measure it yourself and we will tell you how.
The estimate is free and it sets out the glass type, the thickness, whether safety glazing is required and what the work involves. Nothing is ordered until you approve it.
Standard glass is usually cut at our Newark shop. Sealed double pane units, tempered glass and made to order shapes are fabricated to your measurements, which is what sets the lead time.
We fit the glass, check that it seals and operates properly, and take the old glass and packaging away with us.
Where the glass comes from
Every job in Fremont is dispatched from one address. Glass is cut there, sealed units are assembled there, and the vans load there. If you would rather collect glass cut to size than book a visit, that is the address to come to.

The East Bay line that answers Fremont also covers these cities, all from the same Newark shop.
Questions
Call (510) 400-7788. That is the Roxy Glass East Bay line, and it is answered by the team that covers Fremont. You can also use the estimate form and we will call you back.
Yes. Roxy Glass covers Fremont and the rest of Alameda County from its shop in Newark, California. Every service on this site is available in Fremont, from a single cracked pane to a full storefront.
No. Roxy Glass has one place of business, at 7401 Morton Avenue, Suite A, Newark, CA 94560. That is where glass is cut and where every Bay Area job is dispatched from, including jobs in Fremont. It is the only address on the company license record.
It depends on the glass rather than the distance. Roxy Glass schedules a measuring visit to Fremont rather than arriving unannounced, and we do not publish an arrival time, because traffic across the Bay Area makes any printed figure unreliable. Call and we will tell you the next realistic slot. When an opening is not secure we board it up first so the property is safe while the permanent glass is made.
Roxy Glass prices glass by the opening rather than by the city, so a job in Fremont costs the same as the identical job anywhere else in the service area. The size of the pane, whether it is single or sealed double pane, whether code requires safety glazing, the frame material and the access are what move the price. Estimates are free.
Our shop is at 7401 Morton Avenue, Suite A, Newark, California, which borders Fremont. Newark is the only place of business Roxy Glass has, and it is where glass is cut and where every job across the Bay Area is dispatched from. Calls for Fremont are answered on our East Bay line at (510) 400-7788.
For Fremont customers this is often practical, given how close the shop is. Call first on the East Bay line so we can tell you whether what you have is something we can match from a sample, and so someone is expecting you. Our hours are Monday to Friday 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM and Saturday 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM.
It is a failed sealed unit, which is the most common glass problem in Fremont subdivision housing. The seal around the sealed glass unit has given way and moisture has entered the cavity between the panes, where no cleaning can reach it. The sealed unit is replaced and your existing frame and sash stay in place, which is a much smaller job than replacing the window.
Yes. Niles and the other historic parts of Fremont have single pane glass in wood sash, which is reglazed differently from a modern unit and often uses obscure or textured patterns that need matching. Send a close photograph of the glass with your inquiry so we can identify the pattern before coming out.
Yes. Newark is where our shop is, and Union City is on the same East Bay line as Fremont at (510) 400-7788. Hayward, San Leandro, San Lorenzo, Castro Valley, Alameda and Richmond are covered on that line as well.
All of these cities are served from the same Newark shop, on the same East Bay line.
