Looking for summer work, a young Jim took to washing windows around the neighborhood to make a little money. Being the clever guy he is- he realized an opportunity for steady referral business: He introduced himself to the local glass shops around the neighborhood. As the workload increased, he started hiring his friends so he could take on more jobs.
In the midst of the window washing, Jim came to know and respect one old "glass man" in particular. Like many stories, this is a tale of an old-and-wise man in a skilled trade, passing along his learned abilities to a younger generation. One day, Jim asked the glass man- "When are you going to show me how to cut some glass?", to which the old man said "you line up some jobs, and I'll help you do the work".

Donovan Glass is far and away the best for glass repair in Westchester! After calling numerous companies this morning and told it would be weeks until they could come, Jim had someone here the same day. Local company and hard working staff. Thank you!

This morning I had an emergency situation that needed to be dealt very quickly on my china cabinet. I, truly, couldn't believe how fast they were able to send someone. The pricing couldn't have been more fair and he was very supportive and friendly. The final product- of course beautiful and as if nothing ever happened. Thank you so much!
