  • ABSOLUTLY AMAZING WORK!!!! WORTH EVERY PENNY!!! I had cleaned my car a few weeks ago and totally messed up my front windshield. I tried everything I could find online to fix it (vinegar/water, Ajax, dish soap, Pinkstuff, glass cleaner, and glass... read more polish) and NOTHING worked. I hit a wall and I needed a professional to help me. I was unbelievably LUCKY to find Rick and his business. The man is a wizard with glass repair and he as an eye for imperfections that are only visible to a experienced professional. My car went from horrible distortion and very difficult to see through to crystal clear vision in a few hours. Rick did a great job of scheduling time for my project and explaining the process while he was working. SUPER awesome dude and SUPHERB service at a GREAT price. There is a reason why he has great reviews.

    This guy (Rick) saved the day by repairing four massive deep scratches from the stone installation in a Montecito estate. Careless stone workers gouged the glass in many hard to access areas. The shower enclosure is 10 feet long;... read more 1/2 inch thick solid star fire glass with a stone bathtub in front of the glass. He came out and within a few hours he polished the scratches out and left the glass with no trace of damage. Once finished he saved us having to remove the stone, glass, plumbing fixture and bathtub which would have cost over $20,000. Thanks you again for saving our project!

  • Rick with Unscratch the Surface is a true craftsman. I have used numerous artisans and craftsman for my discerning clients, and Rick has been one of the best. With clients recently he repaired a 16 foot glass dining table with... read more scratches from many Sunday family dinner traditions seen. Instead of replacing at a very high cost, my client was ecstatic with the thought of repairing it like new for a fraction of the cost. Rick left the residence spotless, and clean as if no work had taken place, even though the dust created was expected. I would highly recommend his abilities and expert services to any future client.

    We are a roofing company in Ventura and accidentally damaged a window during one of our tear-offs. I had a heck of a time trying to find someone that would even come and take a look.

    The classic muscle car I'm restoring had some deep scratches in the passenger window and light scratches in one of the quarter glass windows. Everyone I talked to said that the scratches could not be removed and my only option... read more was to find replacement original or aftermarket glass. Unfortunately no one would guarantee that any original glass I could find would not come with scratches or to buy aftermarket class that while close to original still were not be an exact fit. Either option being extremely expensive. Then I discovered Unscratch the Surface. Rick Evans with Unscratch the Surface was able to do what everyone said couldn't be done. He did a phenomenal job in removing the scratches and polishing the glass for my classic car and at a fraction of the cost for what it would to replacing the glass. The glass was so clear that after it was installed you couldn't tell there was any glass there. I understand that Rick also does scratch removal for residential and commercial buildings from small to huge projects with glowing reports of the quality of his work. If you have any need to remove scratches or repair to any glass you need to contact Rick at Unsctatch the Surface. you can't beat the quality of his work. From Leoonard Wagner

Why Contractors, Builders, and Collectors Trust Unscratch the Surface to Restore What Others Won't Touch

Unscratch the Surface developed the best patented glass scratch removal process in the industry — a distinction earned through decades of refinement, not imitation. Rather than relying on off-the-shelf abrasive and polishing discs, we engineer and adapt our own compounds and techniques for each unique project. The result is unmatched speed, precision, and a standard of glass resurfacing and refurbishment that competitors consistently attempt — and consistently fail — to replicate.

What Sets Unscratch the Surface Apart: Our Commitment to Flawless Glass Restoration

How Do We Achieve Results Others Say Are Impossible?

Our process is built on 20 years of field experience, proprietary technology, and an uncompromising standard of quality. Here is what distinguishes us from every other glass restoration company operating today.

1. Our Own Patented Process — Developed, Owned, and Continuously Refined by Us

Our glass scratch removal process is the only one of its kind protected by a U.S. patent. While others have attempted to reverse-engineer our methods, the precision and consistency we achieve come from years of proprietary development that cannot be replicated off a shelf. When the integrity of your glass — or your project’s bottom line — is on the line, you want the originator, not an imitation.

2. Custom-Engineered Techniques Tailored to Every Project

No two glass restoration challenges are identical. A curtain wall on a 12-story commercial build, a hand-fabricated windshield on a 1971 classic, and the salon windows of a 60-foot yacht each demand a fundamentally different approach. We continuously develop and refine our abrasives, polishing compounds, and application methods to match the specific glass type, damage depth, and performance standards each project requires. Precision is not a goal — it is our baseline.

3. Two Decades of High-Stakes Project Experience

Since 2005, Unscratch the Surface has completed glass restoration work across 27+ U.S. states and four countries, on projects ranging from iconic commercial landmarks to private estates and rare collector vehicles. That depth of experience — over 100,000 square feet of glass restored — means we have encountered virtually every form of glass damage imaginable and developed proven solutions for all of it. Our clients trust us with irreplaceable glass precisely because our track record speaks for itself.

4. The Industry’s Only No-Distortion Guarantee

Distortion-free results are not a marketing claim — they are a guarantee. Unscratch the Surface is the only glass restoration company in the industry to offer a formal No-Distortion Guarantee. For custom home builders protecting million-dollar views, contractors managing punch lists on high-visibility facades, and collectors preserving irreplaceable original glass, this commitment eliminates risk entirely. If your view matters, the standard must be absolute.

5. Deep Specialization in Commercial and Construction Glass

Glass restoration is our singular focus — not a sideline service. We specialize in the full spectrum of construction-related glass damage: post-construction scratch removal, fabrication debris resurfacing, curtain wall restoration, and high-rise tempered panel refinishing. Commercial contractors and general contractors across the country rely on us to resolve glass damage quickly, cleanly, and at a fraction of replacement cost — often saving clients $50,000 to over $700,000 per project.

6. Technicians Trained to the Highest Standard in the Field

Every technician we deploy is trained specifically in our proprietary resurfacing methods — not general glass work. They arrive on-site prepared to assess damage accurately, work efficiently within active construction or occupied environments, and deliver results that meet the exacting standards our clients demand. We treat your schedule, your property, and your clients with the same professionalism you bring to your own work.

7. Purpose-Built Tools and Solutions for Complex Restoration Challenges

When a project presents a challenge that standard equipment cannot address, we build the solution ourselves. From curved architectural glass and laminated heritage windows to vintage automotive glass and yacht pilot house panels, we have developed proprietary tooling specifically for the jobs others decline to take. Our reputation as meticulous perfectionists is not an accident — it is the product of refusing to accept “close enough” as an outcome.

8. Comprehensive Capability Across Every Glass Type and Application

Whether the project involves tempered curtain walls, laminated safety glass, reflective commercial facades, classic car windshields, or marine pilot house windows, Unscratch the Surface has the expertise and equipment to restore it to original clarity — without replacement. Our work is permanent: scratches are removed, not concealed. What we restore stays restored.

The Standard We Hold Ourselves To: Glass that looks as though the damage never occurred. Every project. Every time.
