You get exactly what you need—cut to your measurements, finished to your specs, installed without drama. Tempered for safety, polished for clarity, and built to last through decades of daily use. That’s what proper glass does.

How We Handle Your Glass Table Top
First, we talk through what you need. Table shape, size, how you use it, what look you want. We discuss thickness options—1/4″ works for decorative pieces, 3/8″ handles everyday dining, 1/2″ is for heavy commercial use. We cover edge finishes: polished for clean lines, beveled for a more elegant feel.
Then we measure. We come to you, measure the actual table, account for any base design quirks, and confirm whether you want the glass flush to the edge or with overhang. These details matter because a quarter-inch off means the glass doesn’t fit right.
We fabricate your glass table top in tempered safety glass—it’s four to five times stronger than regular glass and shatters into small, dull pieces if it ever breaks. Can’t be cut or drilled after tempering, so we get the specs right before fabrication starts.
Installation is quick. We bring the glass to your home, clean both surfaces, position it carefully, and add clear bumpers if needed to prevent shifting. You inspect it, we make sure you’re satisfied, and we’re done. Your table is protected and ready to use immediately.

Glass Services for Williston Park Homes
You’re getting tempered safety glass cut to your exact dimensions. That means if your table is an odd shape—oval, hexagon, curved edges—we can match it. Round, square, rectangular, whatever you have.
Edge finishing comes standard. Polished edges are smooth and safe to touch. Beveled edges add a decorative angle that catches light. We’ll walk you through options based on your table style and how the glass will be used.
Williston Park homes often feature antique furniture and heirloom pieces that need protection without alteration. Glass table tops let you preserve the original finish while making the surface functional for modern life. You’re not refinishing, repainting, or covering with cloth. You’re adding a protective layer that’s invisible until you need to clean it.
We also handle commercial applications—conference tables, restaurant tops, display cases. The process is the same: precise measurement, quality materials, professional installation. Long Island businesses choose us because we show up on time and get it right the first time.
What thickness of glass do I need for my dining table?
For most residential dining tables, 3/8″ tempered glass is the right choice. It’s thick enough to feel substantial, handles normal dining use without flexing, and provides solid protection for the table underneath.
If your table is purely decorative or you’re covering a small side table, 1/4″ works fine and costs less. It’s thinner, lighter, and adequate for surfaces that won’t see heavy daily use.
For commercial settings, outdoor patio tables, or tables that will support heavy objects regularly, go with 1/2″ glass. It’s noticeably heavier and more durable. The extra thickness matters when you’re dealing with high traffic or demanding conditions.
How do you measure for a custom glass table top?
We measure the table in your home, not over the phone. Table dimensions need to be exact, and measurements taken on-site account for things like uneven edges, base design, and how the glass will actually sit.
For rectangular or square tables, we measure length and width at multiple points because some tables aren’t perfectly straight. For round tables, we measure diameter and confirm the center point. For irregular shapes, we create a template.
We also discuss overhang—whether you want the glass to sit flush with the table edge or extend slightly beyond it. Most people prefer flush or a slight inset so the glass doesn’t catch on clothing or bump into chair arms. These details prevent fit issues later.
Is tempered glass necessary, or can I use regular glass?
Tempered glass is the only option we recommend for table tops. Regular glass is dangerous if it breaks—it shatters into large, sharp shards that can cause serious injury. Tempered glass breaks into small, relatively harmless pieces.
Tempered glass is also much stronger. It resists impact better, handles temperature changes without cracking, and holds up to daily wear. If you have kids, pets, or anyone who might accidentally knock something onto the table, tempered glass gives you real protection.
The tempering process happens during fabrication, before cutting and finishing. Once glass is tempered, it can’t be altered. That’s why we confirm all measurements and cutouts upfront—there’s no fixing mistakes after the glass is made.
How long does it take to get a custom glass table top?
Most custom glass table tops are ready for installation within one to two weeks. The timeline depends on glass availability, complexity of the shape, and our current project schedule.
Simple shapes like rectangles and circles move faster. Complex curves, cutouts for table legs, or specialty edge finishes add a few days. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe during the consultation based on your specific project.
Once the glass is fabricated, installation takes less than an hour in most cases. We schedule a time that works for you, bring the glass to your home, and handle setup on the spot. You don’t need to do anything except clear the table surface beforehand.
Will the glass scratch or discolor over time?
High-quality tempered glass doesn’t discolor. It stays clear for decades. You won’t see yellowing, clouding, or fading like you might with some plastics or lower-grade materials.
Scratching is possible but uncommon with normal use. Tempered glass is hard and resists scratches from everyday items like plates, utensils, and cups. Dragging rough objects like ceramic pot bottoms or metal tools can leave marks, but typical dining and household use won’t damage the surface.
If you want extra scratch resistance, we can discuss thicker glass or protective pads for specific uses. But in 20+ years of installing glass table tops across Long Island, scratch complaints are rare. Most people are surprised how well the glass holds up compared to wood or other surfaces.
Can you cut glass to fit an antique or irregularly shaped table?
Yes. We handle irregular shapes regularly—ovals, octagons, kidney-shaped tables, tables with rounded corners or decorative edges. If your table has an unusual shape, we create a template to ensure the glass matches perfectly.
For antique tables, this is especially important. Many older pieces have slight warping, uneven edges, or unique proportions that standard measurements won’t capture. We take the time to map out the exact shape so the glass fits like it was made for that table—because it was.
Cutouts for table legs or pedestals are also standard. We measure where the base intersects the top, cut the glass to accommodate it, and finish those edges so they’re smooth and safe. The result looks intentional, not like a workaround.
