Glass and Mirror

What Glass and Mirror does

Glass and Mirror Inc. (DBA Glass & Mirror) is a family-owned custom glass fabrication and installation contractor headquartered in Blaine, Minnesota, serving the Minneapolis-St. Paul Twin Cities metro across six counties (Anoka, Washington, Carver, Ramsey, Dakota, Scott, Hennepin). Founded in 1984 as Glass Masters, Inc. by Greg Sullivan and Mike Derrig, the company expanded through a second White Bear Lake residential location in 1993 and merged both entities in 2010; ownership transitioned to second-generation owner Patrick Sullivan in 2021. The product portfolio spans four categories — Shower & Bath (Gold, Silver, Bronze packages plus sliding, swing, and specialty doors), Mirrors & Glass (custom-cut glass, custom-cut mirrors, LED backlit mirrors), Windows (insulated units, patio door glass, door/sidelite glass), and Glass Railings (deck, balcony, staircase) — with separate commercial service lines for storefronts, curtain walls, interior glass, and architectural glazing.

The core technology is custom glass cutting, fabrication, and on-site installation rather than software; the only digital differentiator is an interactive Shower Door Builder on the website that helps customers self-select configurations before sales engagement. Revenue is generated through quote-based, one-time project sales plus professional installation services, with three pre-priced shower packages (Gold/Silver/Bronze) simplifying entry-level decisions. The go-to-market is sales-led and field-based: customers request quotes via website forms or phone, pay a $100 measure appointment fee, receive custom quotes after on-site measurement, place a 50% deposit before material ordering, and pay the balance at installation; service call base fees are $200 for a 30-minute visit plus time and materials. Two primary customer segments are served in parallel — Residential Homeowners (custom showers, mirrors, windows, railings) and Commercial/B2B (storefronts, curtain walls, office partitions, architectural glazing) — supported by a newly remodeled showroom with 14 display enclosures and a six-county service radius.

The business has no external investors, no parent company, no patents, and no disclosed revenue, operating as a privately held family business with 51-100 employees. Scale signals include 8,700+ completed residential projects and 5,080+ completed commercial projects, with typical project timelines of 12-20 business days and a 1-year limited warranty on hardware, glass, and installation. Recent operational moves have skewed toward customer experience investment (showroom remodel, interactive product builder, broadened SKU range including LED mirrors and steam shower enclosures) rather than geographic or vertical expansion.
