Glass Tabletop Replacements

Yes, custom designs and patterns are possible. Each technique offers unique advantages, so the best choice depends on your desired design and budget:

• Classic and understated: Etching or sandblasting with a simple pattern works well.
• Detailed design with variations in texture: Sandblasting will make for the best results.
• Colorful or photorealistic design: Digital printing is your go-to method.

In many cases, you can replace the glass on your existing table! It's a great way to refresh your furniture and give it a new look. For best results, one of our service professionals will precisely measure your table's length, width, and thickness. Assessing the table's base and any cutouts for legs or supports is also important for a perfect fit. If the existing glass is not broken, we will use it as a precise pattern to create the replacement piece.

The wait for your custom glass tabletop can vary depending on a few factors, but generally, you can expect it to be ready within five to seven business days. Keep in mind what factors may influence this timeframe, including:

• Complexity of the Design: A simple cut of tempered glass will be much faster than a tabletop with intricate designs etched or sandblasted onto it. More detailed work requires additional time and expertise.
• Glass Availability: If the specific type or thickness of glass you need isn't readily available, it may add a few days to your wait time.

As you might expect, the cost of your custom glass tabletop will depend on a few factors:

• Size: Larger tabletops naturally require more glass, driving up the price.
• Type of Glass: Tempered glass is standard for safety reasons, but you may also consider tempered-laminated glass for extra strength, which will cost more.
• Thickness of the Glass: Thicker glass provides a more luxurious feel but comes at a premium price.
• Edgework: A simple polished edge is the most affordable option, while decorative edgework will add to the pricing.
• Custom Designs: Based on the complexity of the design, any etching, sandblasting, or printing will add to the overall price.

The glass type you chose acts as the main visual component in your glass tabletop.

Clear Glass: The go-to choice for showcasing the beauty of your table base and maximizing light transmission. Clear glass is also the most traditional and versatile option. Clear glass is:

• A good match for coastal or minimalist decor.
• Works well with both traditional and contemporary furniture styles.
• Easy to clean and maintain.

Tinted Glass: A subtle or striking touch of color that also provides UV protection, helping to prevent fading of furniture and artwork placed beneath the tabletop. Our tinted glass options come in a whole rainbow of options and can:

• Filter sunlight and reduce glare.
• Add a fun pop of color.
• Complement bold furniture pieces.

Tempered Glass: A smart option for high-traffic areas and young, active families. Tempered glass is:

• Four times stronger than regular glass.
• Resistant to impact.
• Easy to keep clean.

Laminated Glass: Stylishly designed to add security to windows and doors, laminated glass can also bring much-needed durability to glass tabletops. It’s perfect for:

• Bold designs that demand a thicker tabletop.
• A shatter-resistant surface for entertaining.
• High-end budgets.

Frosted Glass: Diffuses light for a softer, more private feel while still allowing for light flow. Great for concealing clutter or adding a touch of elegance to a console table.

Textured Glass: Provides a unique visual effect with a patterned surface, adding a decorative element to your tabletop.

Strike the perfect balance between safety and aesthetics by selecting from a wide range of glass thickness options:

• ¼ inch (6mm): Ideal for smaller tables, protective covers, or situations where weight is a concern
• ⅜ inch (9mm): A popular choice for tabletops with moderate support, offering a good balance between weight and strength
• ½ inch (12mm): Perfect for larger tabletops and those pieces requiring extra support, providing a sense of solidity and a more substantial look

Of course! The choice of edge profile for your glass tabletop influences its overall appearance. Introduce a hint of refined elegance, strong definition, or even a playful touch with edge design. Our glass tabletop edge designs include: 

• Rounded Edges: A slightly rounded edge adds a touch of softness and dimension, especially useful in homes with children or pets.
• Decorative Edges: Let us guide your creative side with a variety of decorative edge profiles, including waterfalls, ogees, and more.

A custom corner finish adds a final touch of elegance to your new glass tabletop. Choose corner finishes that complement the edge design.

• Eased Corner: A subtly rounded corner offers a soft, comfortable feel.
• Radius & Polished Corner: This finish features a smooth, curved corner that's polished for a touch of elegance.
• Clip & Polished Corner: A sharper, 90-degree corner is polished for a clean, contemporary look.
