Manufacturer-engineered systems (stick-built, unitized, hurricane-impact, thermally-broken) on commercial new construction and major retrofit. Our YKK AP partnership is an AIA/CES Registered Provider relationship that keeps architect, GC, and facility teams aligned through spec. One point of contact owns measure, shop drawings, fabrication, engineering, install, and commissioning, sub-trade or direct-to-developer. SC unlimited GC license #124400 covers high-rise oceanfront scope; coastal-spec is default oceanfront See Building Envelope Restoration & Window Package Installation for the major-retrofit handoff.
Five curtain wall system types plus broader architectural glazing across the Grand Strand:
Oon-site aluminum frames and glass infill. Frame depths 4.5"–7.5"; 4-sided structural-glazing, structural-silicone, and high-performance variants. Fit: low- to mid-rise (up to 6 stories), irregular facades, hotel lobbies, retail, hospitality.
Pre-fabricated panels, crane-set. Roughly 70%/30% factory/on-site, ~one-third the install time of stick-built, superior on thermal-movement, seismic-drift, and wind-load. Standard, high-performance, and 7.5"-depth thermally-broken with drop-on adjustable slab anchors and screw-spline shop assembly. Fit: oceanfront condos, resort hotels (8+ stories), mixed-use and office towers. The 21-story oceanfront 7-month precedent ran this configuration.
Impact-rated glazing per ASTM E 1886 and ASTM E 1996; Miami-Dade HVHZ (TAS 201/202/203) benchmark. Wind Zone 3/4 compliance for coastal SC. Typical premium 30–60% above standard.
Water-management design for hurricane and coastal exposure; outperforms face-sealed systems on wind-driven rain. Often paired with hurricane-impact on oceanfront builds.
Energy-code framing for new construction and major retrofit
Spandrel panels, skylights, atrium glazing, lobby walls, high-spec interior partitions, and ground-floor-to-upper-floor transitions.. See Storefront Glass Repair & Installation and Glass Partition Installation.
Oceanfront is hurricane-code-driven and unitized-led; institutional is energy-code-driven; mixed-use blends curtain wall above with storefront at grade.
Four generations of glazing craftsmanship, three generations serving Myrtle Beach. Every installation is custom-fabricated and engineered to the host structure under architect spec. Specialty architectural-spec installer with manufacturer-backed credentials, not a general glass shop. Our unlimited license covers full curtain wall systems and oceanfront high-rise facades with no height limit. Recent precedent: the 21-story oceanfront project, 7 months mobilization through commissioning, executed as glazing sub-trade under architect spec. Full curtain wall family available locally, with secondary product lines and restoration-match framing as spec calls for.
Stick-built is field-assembled with field-applied sealant. Fit: low- to mid-rise (up to 6 stories) and irregular facades. Unitized is shop-built into floor-height units and crane-set: ~one-third install time, superior on thermal movement, seismic drift, air-water infiltration, and wind loads. Fit: high-rise (8+ stories), oceanfront condos, resort and office towers. Pressure-equalized rainscreen layers on either for hurricane-zone water management. The 21-story oceanfront 7-month precedent ran unitized with full hurricane-impact integration.
Scope-quoted. Varies with building size, story count, system selection, hurricane-impact upgrade, custom-glazing scope, and crane and rigging. Industry context: stick-built $80–$200+/sqft installed; unitized $120–$350+/sqft installed; hurricane-impact a 30–60% premium. Multi-floor oceanfront towers run $500,000–$10,000,000+ depending on scope. The free site assessment locks the exact quote.
Yes for oceanfront and HVHZ-adjacent commercial. WBDR compliance is required by SC building code in designated Grand Strand zones (Wind Zone 3/4). Hurricane-impact-rated systems meet ASTM E 1886 and ASTM E 1996; HVHZ standards (TAS 201/202/203) serve as the most stringent benchmark. Premium typically 30–60% above standard.
Yes. Our SC unlimited license has no height limit; multi-story sub-trade is core scope. Recent precedent: the 21-story oceanfront project, 7 months mobilization through commissioning as glazing sub-trade under architect spec. We sub-trade on Procore and similar platforms; process scales to GC schedule and platform documentation.
Curtain wall is a continuous, non-load-bearing exterior glazing system that hangs from the structure spanning multiple floors. Window package is the multi-unit full-replacement scope of windows in punched openings within a load-bearing wall, typically the largest line item on a restoration project. On mixed-use and oceanfront commercial, AGG often handles both: curtain wall on continuous zones, window package on punched-opening zones.

Every consultation is free, on-site, and engineer-led: architect-spec-collaborative, sub-trade-collaborative for the GC, direct for the developer. No obligation. We walk the building or review drawings, talk through system selection and engineering, coordinate hurricane-impact spec where WBDR applies, and follow up with a detailed bid. Four generations of craftsmanship across new construction, multi-story sub-trade, and oceanfront high-rise facades.
I need to replaced a broken seal window pane. It was very easy to schedule the measurement and installation thru Loren. Trevor and Kevin did a fantastic job with the measurement and installation.
Trevor and Kevin did a great job installing the glass in our window.. they cleaned the glass and swept the floor and clean everything up and left it just like they found it .. they are both very friendly and professional glass installers .. I highly recommend them and if we have another window go bad we absolutely will use them again ..
Your technician Trevor was wonderful! It was a very tough job but he removed the old glass, inserted the new and cleaned everything up. He is a tremendous asset to your company!
Trevor & Kevin were very professional & did a great job installing our shower door. Very personable & explained everything that was done. We would recommend this company 100%.
Trevor and Kevin took heat care of us. They came to my gym to replace a broken mirror. Everyone was friendly and professional all the way through the process. Mirror looks great and they cleaned up after themselves. Definitely recommend!!! Patrick Flynn - Owner Anytime Fitness Forestbrook
We chose American Glass & Glazing after speaking with Loren and she answered questions about their products and services. We were ready to replace the standard builders grade shower frame door that came with our home to something more elevated and easier to clean. From start to finish through on-site measurement, Loren and then the installers Trevor and Steven were very friendly and helpful. Work was done quickly - in only about two week turn around from start to installation. We would highly recommend American Glass & Glazing if you’re in the market for a shower upgrade or other glass project! I’ve added a before and after photo of the shower door. The frameless glass with black hardware really is a fabulous sleek look!
Trevor, Kevin and Lauren were all awesome. Professional and great craftsmanship. They installed a large mirror at my gym and did an amazing job! Definitely recommend. Patrick Flynn - Anytime Fitness Forestbrook
Trevor and Chip are seasoned professionals! They were timely, kind, and very knowledgeable. Our shower glass is absolutely perfect. We couldn't have asked for anything better. We know exactly who to call for all of our glass needs moving forward. Thank you for ending our renovation journey on a high note.

We love our shower door. We received excellent customer service from start to finish. We highly recommend them.
Great company and genuine people who are a pleasure to work with . We had an issue with leveling our store front door . I called Loren , she scheduled promptly. Trevor and his team came in , the next day , they went above and beyond in removing the front door and making sure the base is at a level then re-installed the door.
Best company!! The install guys to the office, a great experience!!!
The only company to go to for your glass needs! They just replaced our “builders grade” shower door with a semi-frameless door. They did a beautiful job! Highly recommended!
This company is the only glass company in the area that returned my call. They are fast, friendly and affordable. Loren and Trevor were both very knowledgeable and professional. They clean up before they leave as well. Highly recommend American Glass & Glazing for your glass repair or replacement needs!!
This company is amazing! I was so fortunate to have them replace the glass on a broken window rather than replace it!! Everyone is very courteous and their workmanship is exceptional. These folks really take pride in what they do. Thank you again!
I needed a small piece of glass, and was very pleased to have it done right there and then. Clean store, friendly service. Definitely will go there for all my glass needs.
American Glass & Glazing are the Best!!! From the start with Loren, she was fantastic answering all my questions and scheduling. Everything went perfectly with Trever and the install of a new tempered glass section on my oceanfront condo, window... fantastic! He also followed up and called me about checked about other patio doors on operation I asked for from Loren. This is what I want in a Window Contractor. Call them
Trevor and his assistants were on time, very courteous, and efficient in fixing our windows. They were truly a pleasure to deal with. My husband and I would highly recommend to others.
Super fast and friendly. Did a excellent job on our back doors glass replacement.
Very nice people and easy to work with! Measuring and installation went smoothly and they were very thorough with clean up. 5 stars for communication as well, this is hard to find!
Bifold shower door was installed with close attention to all details, no matter how small. They measured and remeasured to ensure that it was installed correctly and without flaws. Crew was highly professional, personable, and presented themselves that was a credit to their company. I highly recommend American Glass & Glazing for shower door update and install.
From start to finish our experience was perfect. The tech, Trevor, was tidy, polite, meticulous with his work. We had a couple of non-square pieces that needed precise patterns and he got them traced out exact. I'd highly recommend this company. Prior to calling we were stood up by one, then another came out and said they'd get us an estimate but never did. I was exasperated! Needless to say I was concerned but 3rd time was a charm.
Great job!!! Trevor and Justin were so friendly, courteous and professional. Installation was done in a timely fashion. This is a great company, from speaking with Loren who was very helpful all the way through to the installation. Love my shower door.!!!
Excellent Service! From scheduling to installation it was a great experience. Installers Trevor and Kevin were very professional, on time and Excellent work! We highly recommend this company!
The experiencing was amazing , they were quick and fairly priced. Was very pleased!
The entire process was easy from start to finish. The installer was courteous and quick to resolve issues with first install. Customer service department was polite and quick to respond as well.
Trevor and Kevin came to replace a bad glass panel, and did a great job replacing the glass. Thanks guys! On time, knew their job and cleaned up! Professional!
I had a window that needed to be replaced in a condo. American glass came out and measured, ordered, and replaced. I wasn’t able to be at the property when they did the work, but they kept me advised of their progress and made this project very easy.
Prompt and friendly small business. They were quick to come out and make a template for a custom glass top we will use to protect a coffee bar. Very happy with results, communication, and keeping appointments! Set it perfectly and cleaned spotlessly!
Trevor is very knowledgeable and does amazing work. I highly recommend American Glass & Glazing to everyone.
Looking for glass replacement for broken window seal. I wasn’t up for replacing the entire window and called for pricing and info. American Glass & Glazing responded promptly. I appreciate that they sent the same technicians to quote the job and perform the installation. They were on time, kind and courteous. I appreciate craftsmen working on my home having patience and not being in a giant rush to do a job. That is what I got with this company. I’ve decided to add another window for glass replacement that appears to be on its way out. I highly recommend calling American Glass & Glazing for your broken window seals if you have cloudy glass. I wasn’t up for trying to figure out who the window manufacturer is then pay shipping, removing interior shutters and having it installed myself then re-installing shutters & caulk which is how window warranty works. No thanks! If you’re considering a solution for your windows with broken seals, give them a call.
This company and their employees I had interaction with, were the best. Lauren, Trever and Keven were very professional, very respectful and just a true blessing to work with!! I thank each of them for making this an easy transaction. They were there when they said they would be! Everything was on time! I was never waiting to see when they would show up. They give you an hour window and they were there inside that window! Always with a call they were on their way! I love their communication with the customer!! ♥️
Staff was very easy to work with and are very respectful. The install took most of the day but was worth it! Love the new shower doors!’
Loren was responsive and easy to work with. Our delivery team, Trevor and Kevin, were awesome — professional, prompt, and super accommodating. Give these guys a raise! I’d definitely use American Glass again.
Just received delivery of our glass top for dining room table and could not be happier. What a pleasure working with Lauren and Trevor. From placing the order to delivery, true professionals. Would highly recommend.
Trevor and Kevin did a great job installing our new balancer, locks, and window glass. Very professional, punctual, and kind. We didn’t know the balancer was broke and Trevor told us about it which we appreciated. They ordered the part and installed it along with the other items. Thank you Trevor and Kevin. We would highly recommend this company and will use them again if needed.
Trevor from American glass did a great job replacing a difficult window with mutins that needed to line up exactly. Highly recommend.
Can’t say enough good things about this company! They are so friendly and do an amazing job! They came in under everyone else on price and had it installed in 2 weeks where everyone else was 3-4 weeks out. I will be referring them to everyone I know who needs glass installed. Thank you!!!
A professional, courteous and pleasant experience from start to finish. Loren in the office was thorough and communicative. We had a very clear idea of what to expect the day of measurement, the lead time to manufacture, and what the day of install would be like. Trevor and Kevin arrived, on time, and performed a seamless install, left our home in better condition than they found it, and did it with a smile. After our experience today, our family won’t consider using any company other than American Glass & Glazing, and neither should yours!
Excellent experience from my call to completion of the job. I needed to replace a damaged panel on my sliding glass door. The technicians were on time, did a great installation, and cleaned up when done. Would highly recommend.
Excellent. New glass made a huge difference. Trevor and Kevin were great - worked around drywall installers on site. Installed quickly and completely cleaned up.
