M Greer Glass can take care of everything from mirrors to shower stalls
Fred Sherwin
Sept. 10, 2025

Thinking of renovating your bathroom and want to put in a new glass shower stall? Then you should call Marty Greer at M Greer Glass Solutions, who has over 40 years experience in the industry.

Marty will work with you on the design and then work with your contractor on the installation to make sure your vision becomes a reality.

But M Greer Glass Solutions does a lot more than just shower stalls. They can replace virtually any type of glass in your home from windows to glass table tops and everything in between. When possible, the products are locally sourced and manufactured.

Marty worked for a number of companies before finally starting his own mobile business in 2010. In his words, “to provide an honest service at a fair price”.

It wasn’t until 2021 that he decided to incorporate and M Greer Glass Solutions was born. It was also in the middle of the pandemic, which presented its own set of unique challenges.

Fortunately, glass installers were deemed an essential service during the pandemic, so he was able to accept jobs while following the proper COVID protocols like wearing a face mask at all times and social distancing.

Marty also secured a major contract with three of the four area school boards to replace broken windows and glass doors which has kept him very busy.

But his most fulfilling job is working with residential clients to meet their needs. Marty can replace fogged up and broken thermal glass in your existing windows and doors as well as mirrors in bathrooms and gym mirror walls. He can also design and install glass railings, floor to ceiling wine chillers and replacement glass for wood stoves and fireplace doors.

He can also cut mirrors to whatever size and shape you want and he can repair and replace window screens and screen doors.

To find out more about the various products and services M Greer Glass Solutions can provide, please visit their website at www.mggs.ca.

And, if you already have an idea about what you want, you should contact Marty for a free consultation by either calling 613-715-3856 or email Marty@mggs.ca.
