Isles of Collier Preserve Glass Restoration
The Isles of Collier Preserve is a 2,400-acre gated community in South Naples, just off Tamiami Trail, where more than half the land is preserved as lakes, nature preserves, and native habitat. Roughly 1,600 single-family homes, villas, and coach homes are built here in the coastal architectural style of Old Naples, many featuring 10-foot pocketing impact sliding glass doors that open the living space directly onto the lanai. With that much glass on this many homes — much of it impact-rated and built into the home's core indoor-outdoor design — scratches and hard water damage are common, and full replacement is rarely the right answer.
Glass Restoration Inc. repairs and restores that glass on site, without the cost, mess, or wait of a full replacement. Every job is held to ASTM C1036 optical clarity or better.
Trusted by STOCK Development
STOCK Development is a Preferred Builder within The Isles of Collier Preserve, and STOCK 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 this 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)
Impact Sliding Glass Doors, Restored Not Replaced
The 10-foot pocketing impact sliders that define this community's indoor-outdoor design are exactly the kind of glass that shouldn't be replaced over a surface scratch. A pocketing slider this size, in an impact-rated configuration, is expensive and slow to reorder — restoring the existing glass in place gets the same result without the wait.
Lakes, Preserves, and Lanai Glass
With over half the community set aside as lakes and natural preserve, homes here sit close to water, irrigation, and dense landscaping — all of which contribute to the mineral buildup and hard water etching that clouds lanai and pool-cage glass over time.

Recognized by the Industry
Glass Restoration Inc. has been featured in the Glass Magazine Sourcebook three consecutive years, and interviewed by US Glass Magazine and AGRR Magazine. Every job we perform meets ASTM C1036 optical clarity or better — the industry benchmark for flat glass quality.
A deep scratch across a high-end impact slider was quoted at $7,500 for full replacement. It was restored on site for $300 instead — the kind of outcome that protects both the glass and the budget. (0:13)
Hard Water and Mineral Deposits, Polished Away
The Isles of Collier Preserve's lakes, irrigation systems, and pool decks leave a mineral film on glass that builds slowly and never wipes clean with standard cleaners. Sprinkler overspray and hard water etching cloud lanai sliders and windows 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 up the coast from The Isles of Collier Preserve — 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 2005, 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. That matters more than it sounds like it should. In an industry where companies open, close, rebrand, and reopen under a new name every few years, an unbroken filing history is proof of stability a homeowner or builder can actually verify — not just a claim on a website. Not every company calling itself a glass restoration specialist in Naples can say the same.
