Twenty-eight people have rated Banner Glass Shelmar on Google and the average is a flat 5.0 — a clean sweep for a business that, by its BBB listing, has been running since 1960. The Wakefield company is a glass shop first: shower and tub enclosures, framed, semi-frameless and frameless shower doors, mirrors, doors and windows, storefronts and custom specialty glass, worked out of Wakefield and Waltham for homes and businesses alike. What reviewers describe is a place you can walk into and ask questions. In July 2026 a customer who had not been in for years came back for a window repair and new screens and singled out the counter staff; a May 2025 reviewer made the same point in a single line. The same names keep coming up, which tends to mean a stable crew. In April 2026 a customer was walked through the options in the showroom by Dan and placed the order with Michelle, who fielded repeated callbacks without complaint. In October 2025, Mike, Bobby and Jeff replaced two windows. In June 2024, Bobby and Fonzi installed doors the customer called beautiful, Bob and Dan handled a replacement palladium window, and Barbara worked through hardware types and finishes for frameless shower doors with measurements booked two days out. A November 2023 shower-door replacement drew praise for the price as much as the work, and a 2022 buyer called the pricing competitive from sales through install. The only wrinkle anyone has raised is a small one: a March 2026 customer ordering a glass door for a new bathroom mentioned some miscommunication around the measuring visit, and still left five stars. BBB grades the company A+ without accrediting it, and lists 18 employees, locations in Wakefield and on Prospect Street in Waltham, the Shelmar and L.W.R. Enterprises names, 66 years in business and Lawrence Rosenfield as president. The company's own site notes Rich Rosenfield installing a shower door on an episode of This Old House. For a frameless shower enclosure, a replacement window, a broken pane or a set of screens north of Boston, this is about as clean a record as the trade offers. Visit the showroom, confirm who is measuring and when, and get the hardware finish written onto the order.
I haven't been there in years, but needed a window repaired and some screens made, great staff behind the counter. Very helpful and knowledgeable. Thank you.
Banner Glass Shatters the Competition! I met Dan in the showroom and he walked me through all the different options and gave me some great high-level information for me to go on. Placing the order with Michelle was a breeze - and she was always so kind with my many call backs. The real heroes though were the installers JJ and Jose! - talk about professionalism, respectful, patient, hardworking and efficient. They hustled my glass up a a flight of stairs like they were carrying air! Their communication and professionalism was WAY more than I expected (with me and each other). JJ explaining all the do's and don't and Jose offering his help wherever he could. They worked in my tiny (55 sq ft) bathroom and made sure everything was perfect! JJ & Jose are the team to get to shatter the competition. If you are a homeowner (or contractor) looking for a professional team that you (or your customer) will love - Definitely check out Banner Glass Shelmar! And once again a very sincere Thank you to JJ & Jose!
We wanted a glass door for our shower in our new bathroom and decided on Banner Glass Shelmar. The process was very easy, we just showed up to their showroom and they scheduled a time for someone to come and measure the space. There was a little miscommunication between my husband and I regarding which handle for the shower door I wanted (my husband didn’t realize which one I had asked for when they did the measurements, so had signed off on the standard handle instead of upgrading to the ladder style). Despite that, they were able to swap out the handle the same day to the style I had wanted and it looks great! We are very happy with the shower door, and they gave us clear instructions on how to properly care for the glass which I appreciate
A+ job!! ⭐️ Mike, Bobby, & Jeff did an outstanding job replacing 2 windows. Professional and great customer service! See the A Team! Thank you!
