Glass Cutting & Custom Fabrication — What to Expect
A tempered glass tabletop cut to an unusual shape, a shelf insert for a built-in bookcase, replacement glass for a single-pane window, a picture frame panel, or switch plate covers in matching glass — these projects all require accurate measurement, clean cuts, and proper edge finishing. Off-the-shelf glass panels rarely match non-standard dimensions.
Colfax Glass cuts flat glass in standard, tempered, and laminated varieties. We stock common thicknesses from 1/8-inch to 1/2-inch and can source specialty glass for unusual requirements. Edge treatments include seamed, flat polished, beveled, and pencil polished finishes — chosen based on whether the edge is exposed or set into a frame.
Tempered glass cannot be cut after tempering. We order it cut to your exact dimensions and have it tempered at the factory. Accurate measurements are critical since the finished piece cannot be modified. Standard tempered orders take 5-7 business days. Regular flat glass cuts are often ready same-day or next-day.
Common projects include glass tabletops for dining and coffee tables, glass shelving for display cases and bathrooms, replacement panes for older windows, cabinet door glass, fireplace screen panels, and cover plates for light switches and outlets. Bring in the broken piece or give us the dimensions and we will match it.
Glass Cutting & Custom Fabrication for Crescent City, CA Homes
Crescent City is the county seat of Del Norte County, located on the Northern California coast just south of the Oregon border. The town sits in one of the wettest regions in California, with annual rainfall frequently exceeding 70 inches. Combined with salt air exposure and occasional tsunami risk in the low-lying areas near the harbor, windows and doors here face conditions that would be unusual anywhere else in our service territory.
The housing stock in Crescent City is primarily single-family homes, many built between the 1960s and 1980s. After the 1964 tsunami devastated the town's waterfront, much of the lower downtown was rebuilt with commercial and residential structures designed for that era's standards. These buildings often have original glazing that is past due for replacement. Moisture intrusion, seal failure, and frame deterioration from persistent rain and humidity are the most common issues we encounter.
Colfax Glass serves Crescent City on a scheduled rotation, similar to our Brookings coverage. We also reach Smith River to the north and Klamath to the south. For Crescent City projects, we emphasize moisture management: proper flashing, drainage-plane compatibility, and frame materials that resist rot and corrosion. Product selection here is driven by durability and weather resistance above all other factors.

“Rain is a fact of life in Crescent City and our old windows were leaking badly every winter. The new windows from Colfax Glass are tight, dry, and the installation quality was clearly a step above what we expected.”
