About us
The glassiest guys in town!
We’re The Glass Guys: an energetic, family owned and operated glazing team based in Rotorua, servicing the Bay of Plenty and surrounding districts for residential, commercial, and automotive glass.
We’re proud locals who back our craft. When you call us, you get straight advice, tidy workmanship, and a team that genuinely cares about doing the job properly.
Our story
It was early 2016 when we (Gary and Jenn) decided to take the leap into self-employment. We’d just had our daughter Chloe and found ourselves dreaming of a brighter future for our family.
That dream became The Glass Guys, and things moved fast. Within 12 weeks of opening we had a fully qualified local glazier on staff and a second van on the road. Since then we’ve grown into a busy, hands-on team supporting our community with everything from urgent breakages to major commercial installs.
Where we’re at today
We now operate from a large workshop and showroom at one of Rotorua’s most prominent trade locations, with strong road exposure and space to support a high volume of work.
Our team is made up of hands-on owner/operators, admin support, qualified flat and auto glass glaziers, apprentices, and specialist support where required. It’s a full-on operation, and we love it.
Recognised for what we do
We’ve worked hard to build a business locals can trust, and we’re proud of the recognition along the way:
We’re an Approved Master Glazier company.
That means we’ve been verified through audits and assessment, and we operate to a professional standard you can rely on.
Gary is now part of the BCITO National Advisory Group for Glass & Glazing NZ. We are dedicated to shaping Glass and Glazing in NZ for the generations to come.
