Reviews
What customers say
Customers praise efficient, professional service, and one custom-screen project for a room with an unusual attachment need drew particular praise. One customer reported a two-week wait for a single-pane replacement; a plexiglass vent-cutting job drew a report of lost measurements, repeat delays and a jagged cut that needed correction.
Customer Reviews
Graham Clarke
Great experience with this business. Had what I needed and at a good price. Would recommend them to anyone.
Bahram Azizi
Reliable service, but the waiting time was quite long—I waited two weeks to get a single pane replaced, which was a two-hour job. The crew was punctual and professional.

Recently had a piece of plexi glass cut for a window a/c vent.
Was quoted less on phone than in person with screen in hand…2-3 business days.. ok.
Last day the called, as they lost measurements!
Had to go back… then they had no intention to get it done quick for me, through the weekend again. Jagged hole cut and jammed my vent into space.. had to leave it there again, a second time, and wait for owner to come back and get it out to fix the cut.
Terrible finished product with minimal discount for inconvenience and absolutely NO customer service.
Real lack of empathy and personality there. Sad for a business that’s been around so long ????????
Shop around if I were you.

The owner is friendly, supportive, and always willing to help.
As the owner of YVR Handyman in the neighborhood, I’ve relied on Capilano Glass many times—they’ve consistently supplied the materials I need and offered guidance whenever challenges came up during a project.
Thank you for your ongoing support and your commitment to helping small businesses thrive on the North Shore.
Andy Moore
Capilano Glass was easy to deal with and provided a fast and efficient service. I ordered a bunch of custom screens for our house and couldn’t be happier with the result. I had one room which required some creative thinking for screen attachment, and the result is better than I had hoped for. Thanks for a great experience!
