A&E Glass
Window & Door Installer · Garland, TX
About
A&E Glass handles window and door repairs and replacements out of Garland Texas. Crystal and Sammy run the outfit with Emily helping on the jobs. They focus on swapping broken panes sometimes just one side of a window instead of the full unit along with installing screens and caulking frames. Reviewers note they take on batches of panes across a house and fix fogged double panes that have leaked for years.
Customers describe calling for a single broken front window where other companies pushed full replacement but A&E swapped only the damaged side the same day after a quick quote. Sammy handled installs in a couple minutes on some jobs while Crystal quoted over the phone from pictures sent in. Other work covered 26 panes at once with screens added and caulking done around all openings. Emily and Sammy teamed up on a few to make sure everything fit right before leaving. Some reviews mention damage left on walls during installs or jobs left unfinished after deposits.
They get back on calls fast often under an hour and confirm details by text with arrival times noted. Quotes land the same day even on weekends and work follows the next morning in many cases. Pricing comes in reasonable enough that repeat calls happen for extra jobs. Service stays local to the Garland area based on the addresses in the reviews.
The Google rating sits at 4 from 58 reviews. Recurring topics cover quick responses and solid results on smaller fixes alongside complaints about months long delays on larger orders and poor follow through after payments.

What Customers Say
“I had a window broken from one side only. I reached out to several other companies. And they all told me that I needed to replace the entire window. I called A&E glass and they told me they could replace just the broken side without having to replace the entire window. And Thats was what I was looking for. They came out quickly, gave me a quote and were able to do the work that same day.”
“I called A&E for a broken window at the front of my house. They called me back in less than an hour, were able to quote me over the phone from a picture I sent, and came out the next day to fix it! Sammy was very friendly and knowledgeable; he changed the window in just a couple minutes. Crystal was very helpful on the phone, too. I had a great experience and will definitely use them again!”
“DO NOT BOOK WITH THEM!!! Extremely unprofessional, lack customer service. The lady called my landlord because I decided to book with a more professional company. She was so worried about the Zelle payment (which I never asked for) but never sent an invoice. Ok so back to contacting my landlord. lol I busted out laughing especially when my landlord contacted me after I texted the girl and said I was going with someone else. I even advised her that my landlord found their company but I was the one handling everything. READ THE REVIEWS!!! She really WENT BEHIND MY BACK AND CONTACTED THE LANDLORD. The old me would have called her but the new me is leaving a review. BUYER BEWARE!!”
“At first, everything seemed great — almost too great. We used this company on one house and were convinced we had found our go-to glass company. Good communication, smooth process, no red flags. So naturally, we moved forward with them on a second house. That’s where things took a sharp turn. What started off fine quickly went south. Communication became inconsistent, promises were made and not kept, and eventually we were flat-out ghosted. No follow-through, no accountability, and no effort to stand behind their word. The frustrating part is that this didn’t have to end this way. They could have had repeat business, referrals, and many more jobs — I personally know family and friends who all need windows. Instead, they chose not to do what they said they would do. Because of that, I wouldn’t recommend this company to anyone. Unfortunately, after this experience, I wouldn’t even pass along their number to someone I didn’t like — let alone family or friends. Disappointing outcome for what could have been a long-term business relationship.”
“Unbelievable service! I definitely got my money's worth and I am extremely satisfied with the end results.”
“Definitely would NOT recommend using this company. The transaction was shady from the start, with Crystal(owner or manager) telling us over and over that it would be tomorrow, then it was the next day, ect. We waited well over a month to get this installed after it was ordered. During install, they caused over $200 in damage to the wall(fresh drywall and paint) then proceeded to not want to take care of it until given an ultimatum. Claimed it was a "50 cent fix" and then walked back into the customer's home, without knocking (and after leaving). They refused to leave the customer's home, scaring the homeowner. Hmmm.... Will not use again, and recommend you do not either.”
“i called on a sunday to get a quote. the quote was received just a few mins later & confirmed to come measure my window the next day. the process was super easy and FAST. my window was fixed in less than 24 hours & the cost was extremely reasonable! these guys are the best!! thank you!”
“Worked fast and were attentive to all my needs same day fixing and great people overall would have them again if needed”
“Wow this is the best thing experience I’ve had in a LONG time. Crystal was SOO quick to get back to me and helped me with such a great price. Sammy and Emily WERE amazing! Made sure everything was perfect before they left. It didn’t feel awkward either.. it truly felt like a family was helping a family!! I would recommend them to everyone!! Seeing Sammy and Emily work together was awesome. This family is a true team! If I could give 10 stars I would!”
“These guys are awesome as the owner of Marian services I service a lot of homeowners A&E Glass in Garland is by far The best glass installation company to deal with when you want quick quality service with a smile”
“BEWARE!!! I have been dealing with this company for a year at this point. I had many window panes replaced but it took months and months for the work to be completed. There are two window panes still not replaced as well as solar screens that were paid in full in advance, never installed. Deposits paid for the glass but glass not installed and they ran out of the plastic glazing that holds the glass in on at least 5 windows so the glass is not secure in those windows. Job site not cleaned well nor glass cleaned. My son cut his foot on pieces of broken glass left in our home. I was constantly cleaning up behind them. This company is a small family owned business, which I try to support, but they do not run a professional business. Communication is horrible, the customer has to contact them multiple times to get an update or status on work. If they do answer a call or email and set an appointment for install, they do NOT show up most of the time but never call to tell you why or to reschedule. There is excuse after excuse as to why they couldn't come as scheduled. They never seem to be able to get help so the husband and wife are the only people working. They were reasona”
“Pure and simple, these folks are fraudsters and scammers. Now that I have your attention allow me to explain why I will give them two stars. They are a small "company" which is really just a Husband and Wife with their daughter helping out. Nothing wrong with that. They sold me on replacing the glass through my entire house with three promises, in writing. #1 That the job would take 11 days. (Quote received and downpayment made on January 20th, it's now May 6th and still not done) #2. Cash discount (they made good on that) and #3. That there would be a 10 year warranty. They have yet to respond about finishing the job as they installed the wrong glass on the front door. The glass on the front door is also the wrong size and lets wind through. They are choosing to ignore my text messages about the warranty and finishing the job. Sammy claims to be blind now, which if true, sure, but then why not give me the warranty information for the glass? They install with extremely poor craftsmanship. They broke several panes of glass in their attempt to install at my home. Which made them have to come back several times. They also measured wrong and had to come back for that as well. To his”
“A&E Glass was quick to answer and get someone out to measure my windows to get me an estimate same day. Within a day they had ordered the glass and had it installed the next morning. Great service and great communication. They made it easy and were quick to answer any questions I had. Will definitely use them again in the future.”
“Great experience. Windows look great. I called the day after Christmas which happens to be Sunday. 🎄 They fit me in same day. The man was very pleasant professional. Treated my emergency situation with ease. He was able to install from the outside of my home. I was amazed at at how easy everything was. The woman that answered was great. The technician called me quickly to confirm details. He text me when he was arriving. He texted me when the job was completed. I even got a text to thank me for business. Highly recommended!! 10 out of 10 stars 🌟😀”
“Called A&E Glass and received a quote in less than 5min, work was completed the following day. Very happy with how fast they took care of replacing my window. Thanks again A&E glass, will defiantly recommend you guys.”
“We own a company and great Service and great value means a lot to us. This is the first time using them, they were great. Called and they scheduled us the same day. They came out and measured, was back the next day to install. Pricing was very reasonable so reasonable that called them to do another job”
“Got a cannot-be-beat quote from A&E Glass for the replacement of five double-paned windows, one screen and caulking of all windows. Wet weather and freezing temps delayed the work, but the first day the weather was good, the work was completed in a professional, efficient manner. New windows were left sparkling, ground debris and old glass were removed, did a great job cleaning up. I highly recommend Crystal and Sammy—job well done for an exceptionally fair price!”
“After seeing some of the reviews on here I was hesitant at first to use this company BUT so happy we went with them. Made several phone calls and Sammy was the first to respond and even came out and gave me a free estimate on a Saturday. Gave him 50% down and he was back that week to install. He did a great job & we would definitely use them again.”
“We got a quote from several companies for replacing around 26 window panes and A&E offered the best quote and they also had exceptional service. I have lived in my house since 1986 and after living here for around 5 years all our windows fogged up from a leak between the panes. I have lived with that situation for so long, I didn't realize just how nice looking out our windows could be until we replaced all the panes. I actually enjoy having the blinds and drapes completely open now so i can see outside. I would highly recommend A&E Glass for any glass products and service they have to offer.”
“I contacted them 3 weeks ago to repair a bedroom window at the front of my house that a neighbors kid broke and they came out a few days later to take measurements. After paying the deposit for the window to be repaired, I still haven’t gotten it fixed. It’s been 3 weeks, no window fixed, $175 deposit gone, and no communication about when someone will come complete the job. At this point, I feel I’m being scammed and this is NOT a legitimate business! DO NOT RECOMMEND! ***UPDATE: 2 months after paying and booking their service, chasing them down to simply respond, and having to resort to filing a police report, THEY DECIDED THAT THEY WOULD GIVE ME ONLY THE GLASS THEY HAD CUT TO FIX MY WINDOW(WHICH IS WHAT THE DEPOSIT PAID FOR) BECAUSE THEY WERE UPSET ABOUT ME GETTING THE POLICE INVOLVED AND LEAVING THIS REVIEW AND OPTED NOT TO FINISH THE JOB AND REPAIR THE WINDOW. The police gave them the option to walk away without legally being binded to finishing the job because I only paid the deposit thus far. All in all, THANK GOD ITS OVER, STILL DO NOT RECOMMEND, WORST BUSINESS AND CUSTOMER SERVICE IVE EVER EXPERIENCED…NEGATIVE 0 STARS!”
