A Colorado Springs glass company built on $50 and a van.
In 2011, Dave and Erin Kent started Kent Glass with fifty dollars, an old van, and an idea. Build a glass company in Colorado Springs that treats people right and does work it can stand behind. No investors. No big launch. Just two people and the town they loved.
For the next twelve years, Dave was in every shower, every mirror, every install. Erin ran everything behind him. They hired people they liked. They turned down jobs that weren't right. They kept it small on purpose, because small is where the care happens.
In 2023, Dave passed. That was the hardest chapter we've had.
What Dave built didn't stop. Today, Erin leads a team of thirteen glaziers and craftspeople who show up for each other and for the people who trust us with their homes and businesses. The company looks a little different now, and it should. But the way we work hasn't changed one bit.
We're still the ones picking up the phone. We're still the ones measuring in your bathroom. We're still the ones doing the install and standing behind it when we're done.
That's Kent Glass. That's who we are.
- Since 2011 15 years in Colorado Springs

- 13 Local craftspeople on the team
- 2026 Best of Springs winner

This is how we work.
We're not the biggest glass company in Colorado Springs. But we care the most. Here's what that actually means for the person on the other end of a quote.
We do what we say we'll do.
If we quote it, we build it. If we schedule it, we show up. If something goes sideways, we tell you first. No surprises on invoice day.
The details are the job.
The gap under the door. The caulk line. The bracket placement nobody else would notice. We notice. Glass work is precision work, and precision is the only standard we're interested in.
We don't keep you waiting.
Quotes come back fast. Installs get scheduled as quickly as the measurement allows. You have a life and a project to finish. We respect your calendar.
This is our town, too.
We live here. Our neighbors do too. When we install glass in your home, we see you around town afterward. That's why we do it the way we do.
Thirteen people doing the work.
Every job we quote, measure, fabricate, and install comes from somebody on this list. No subcontractors. No outsourced crews. Just a local team that shows up, knows the product, and stands behind the finish.
