Epperson is a master-planned community in Wesley Chapel built around North America's first Metro Lagoon — a 7-acre crystal-clear lagoon amenity with water slides, a swim-up bar, and an activity course at the center of the neighborhood. As one of Wesley Chapel's fastest-selling and most talked-about new communities, Epperson has active construction happening across multiple phases, which means glass moving through job sites constantly, alongside the everyday exposure that comes with a home built around a large water feature.

Glass Restoration Inc. repairs and restores that glass on site — construction scratches, hard water etching — without the cost or wait of a full replacement. Every job is held to ASTM C1036 optical clarity or better.

Trusted by D.R. Horton

D.R. Horton is one of the primary builders at Epperson, and D.R. Horton is one of the builders Glass Restoration Inc. has worked alongside across multiple Florida communities. When construction-related glass damage shows up on a home close to closing, we restore it on site rather than delaying the timeline for a replacement panel.

A scratched slider was found right before closing on a new home build. Instead of delaying the sale for a replacement panel, the glass was restored on site the same day, and closing stayed on schedule. (0:34)

Builders and property managers across Naples to Tampa call us when a "big scratched mess" threatens a project timeline. We solve it on site, without replacement panels, delays, or blown schedules. (0:35)

Life Around the Lagoon

Epperson's 7-acre Metro Lagoon is the community's signature feature, and homes closest to the water take on constant humidity and mineral exposure on top of the usual Florida sun. That combination clouds glass steadily over time — often mistaken for permanent damage when it's actually a straightforward restoration.

New Construction Still Underway

With Epperson still building out across multiple phases, construction-related glass scratches are a common cause of damage on homes close to completion — framing crews, landscaping equipment, and finish work all pose a risk to nearby windows and sliders.

Hard Water and Mineral Deposits, Polished Away

Epperson's Metro Lagoon and irrigation systems leave a mineral film on glass that builds slowly and never wipes clean with standard cleaners. Sprinkler overspray and hard water etching cloud windows and sliders season after season until the glass looks permanently dull. Glass Restoration Inc. polishes those deposits away on site, restoring true optical clarity without replacing the glass.

A Neighbor, Not an Out-of-Town Opportunist

Glass Restoration Inc. is a short drive from Epperson — not dispatched from a call center in another part of the state. Barry, Stanton, and Skyeler got their start in Sarasota County, building custom homes under Barbas Building and Designs, a design-build company. The glass scratch repair skill Barry developed solving his own job sites' problems in 2005 became its own company in 2009, once other builders started asking for the same fix. When you call a local family business, you're not getting a technician who'll be gone by next season — you're getting a neighbor who has a reputation to protect in this community.

Continuous Since 2009, No Gaps

Glass Restoration Inc. has operated continuously since starting in 2005 under the parent company Barbas Building and Designs, Inc., and spinning off as Glass Restoration, Inc. in 2009, with an unbroken corporate record — the same company, the same name, the same ownership, every year since. Not every company calling itself a glass restoration specialist in Wesley Chapel can say the same.
