Broken glass in Markham: we dispatch 24/7.
Markham is roughly a 40-minute run from our Mississauga shop — less if a technician is already in the area — so a truck is usually on site the same day.
Emergency board-up, security and make-safe first — permanent repair scheduled after.
The glass that goes back into a commercial opening in Markham
Commercial glazing is a small number of make-ups, not one product, and most openings combine two or three of them. Which one goes back into a broken opening in Markham is settled by three things: where the Ontario Building Code says safety glazing is required, how deep the glazing pocket is in the frame that is staying, and what broke the last one. Safety glazing is certified to CAN/CGSB-12.1, and in or beside a door it is not optional.
Broken glass repair, or replacing the window or door?
Most broken commercial glass in Markham is a glass job. The frame is straight, the anchoring is sound, the hardware still works, and only the lite has failed — so the opening is reglazed and nothing else changes. Replacement earns its place when the thing that failed is the frame: bent or corroded aluminum, a dead thermal break, or a glazing pocket too shallow for the unit the opening now needs. On a door there is a third answer that rarely gets offered — the leaf and frame stay, and the glass and the hardware around it are rebuilt in place.

Glass and windows for the work Markham buildings do
The sectors that dominate Markham — technology campuses, corporate offices, light manufacturing — each break their glass in a different way.
Technology campuses
An office building breaks glass quietly — a lobby lite chipped at the edge, a stairwell pane cracked, sealed units fogging one elevation at a time because they were all glazed the same week. Most of it is scheduled work, not an emergency.
Light manufacturing
Plant glass fails from vibration, impact and heat as often as from forced entry — a cracked vision lite in a shop door, a stressed pane beside a bay. We match the make-up to what broke it rather than putting the same lite back.
Retail plazas
Shopfronts take the damage: forced entry overnight, a display bay hit from the pavement, a door lite starred by a cart. We board the opening the same night, measure while we are there, and glaze early enough that you trade the next morning.
Schools & institutions
Schools and campuses run assemblies built decades apart, including wired and early safety glazing that can no longer simply be matched like for like. We replace to what the code asks for now, and we work the breaks and the evenings.
Condos & property management
Condo and managed buildings call twice: the vestibule or lobby lite that has been broken, and the sealed units that have fogged in batches across one elevation. The first is a call-out, the second is a schedule and a budget.
Hotels & hospitality
A hotel or restaurant front cannot look boarded at dinner service. We secure the opening in a way that survives being photographed, and put the glass back — usually the entrance lite or a pane in the patio front — outside covers.
Broken glass in Markham: board-up first, then the reglaze
If the opening is open to the street, call 800-522-6825 rather than filling this in — the line is answered 24 hours and the board-up comes first. For a cracked lite, a fogged unit or a quote to reglaze, tell us the opening and roughly how big it is.
Common questions about commercial glass & window repair
How fast can you get there?
Crews dispatch from our shop at 1645 Bonhill Road in Mississauga, which is central to the GTA rather than at one end of it, and the emergency line is answered 24 hours a day. We will give you a real arrival window on the call based on where the crew is, and if the honest answer is three hours we say three hours. What we will not do is quote a fixed response time on a web page that no one can hold us to.
Will our insurance cover it, and can you invoice them?
Glass breakage is commonly covered, and the paperwork usually needs the same three things: photographs of the damage before anything is touched, an itemised invoice, and the date and time of the call-out. We photograph every emergency opening on arrival as a matter of course and itemise board-up and glazing separately, which is the format adjusters ask for. We invoice you, not your insurer.
How much does it cost to repair broken glass in a commercial building?
It is driven by the size of the lite, the make-up (monolithic tempered, laminated, or a sealed insulating unit), the access, and whether the opening has to be secured first. Two visits cost more than one — a board-up tonight plus glazing when the unit arrives is a different number from a single planned reglaze. We give the board-up cost before we roll and the glass cost once we have measured, and we do not price the glass differently because you called at midnight.
