Quality work, professional, and reasonable price. Would hire again in a heartbeat. He explains the process very well

Came to my house to replace my old windshield because water started to get inside my car. He was very thorough and did a great job! If you have a classic car I definitely would recommend 101 Auto Glass! read more

I had a long crack across my windshield that grew over time. Reached out to Chantos on Monday. His price is reasonable and he was available next day but I opted for Friday when I am free. Chantos communicated well, showed up on time, and I watched him do the job right outside my house. He is very skilled, detailed, and friendly. He also works with several body shops. Overall a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend. Thank you! read more

Recently Chantos replaced my busted windshield on my truck. He was quick, very competitively priced, professional and a pleasure to do business with, plus I like being able to support a local, independent small business. Would recommend to anyone needing auto glass repair. Thanks Chantos! read more

I did not work with Chantos directly as my mom handled all the communication for me, but I cannot say enough about how great and honest he is. He replaced the windshield of my Honda accord, which then was giving me a lot of warning messages that my windshield needed to be calibrated. Chantos said this has never happened to him before, so I went ahead and took my car to Honda service center to attempt calibration. They were unsuccessful, so Chantos was willing to rectify the situation and give me my money back if I had to install a factory windshield from the dealer. I luckily did not have to, because Chantos recommended someone who was able to do my calibration for me but the fact that he was willing to refund my money for something that was not his fault was very admirable. His prices are fair, his customer service is great, and I will definitely recommend him to anyone looking to get there auto glass needs met. read more

My side window was smashed in one evening. I called around the next morning, and 101 Auto Glass was thorough but quick, reliable, friendly and cleaned up the interior. Highly recommend them. read more

Very happy with quick, thorough service. Chantos responded immediately to my initial call, then checked on availability for my window (back quarter window in 2006 Prius) & called me right back with a quote and time estimate. He matched a lower price I'd been quoted elsewhere. He let me know when he on his way to my house - I appreciated his excellent communication. Someone had smashed in our window, glass everywhere, and Chantos cleaned up every last piece and put in a new window - all in less than 30 minutes. TOP NOTCH - I would definitely call him again (but hoping I won't have to.) read more

Chantos is the absolute best. He's significantly cheaper and faster than any car dealership and goes out of his way to fix windows quickly. While he tells me after each window break in that he hopes we never have to see each other again for windows, I am so glad he's here in case. Don't waste time calling anyone else. This is the business! read more

Chantos is such a kind human who gives really top notch service! Made the break-in experience not quite so bad. His pricing was reasonable and he came within an hour when I called! He was super communicative and did great work. I'm very happy with my new window. read more

I highly recommend this business! Not only Mr. Chantos came to me, but everything was done WITHIN AN HOUR at a price you can't beat. I had my rear window broken and glass all around the car. Mr. Chantos took care of everything (vacuuming and cleaning the door panel) - he even used a detergent to make my car smell good!!! That might be the best service experience I've ever had. Professionalism, quality, value and efficiency at their best! read more

Unfortunately, I've had to call Chantos four separate times (can't catch a break, I swear!) and every time, he has been absolutely WONDERFUL. I honestly cannot recommend Chantos and 101 Auto Glass enough and have directed all my friends to him as well. He is very dependable, communicative, and goes above and beyond with his work. He comes to you, works efficiently, and most importantly, he consistently has the ***lowest prices***. In my most recent experience with Chantos, he even offered to reattach my front license plate which was unrelatedly sitting on my dashboard. I swear, you'll almost want your windows to get broken again because of how pleasant working with Chantos is! read more

A part of me wants my car to get broken into again so I can have this amazing experience again. A couple days ago, my car got broken into and I was devastated because 1. This is my first car ever and 2. I felt like I lost my sense of security. I called dealerships in the morning and everyone either told me I had to wait and pay over $300, but also acted really apathetic. "We have to order the glass, then you have to pay for labor, but no one is available to help you right now." I was bummed and my anxiety was going through the roof. I thought I'd have to wait a whole week to get my window changed. Then my boyfriend contacted 101 Auto Glass; a one man band with a van. He asked for the piece, my car model, and location (Oakland,) and said he'd meet me in an hour. HE WAS AT MY CAR IN 40 MIN WITH A VACUUM, THE GLASS FROM THE MANUFACTURER, AND THE SOLACE I NEEDED. 101 Auto Glass: the local business that we do not deserve. read more

I sometimes leave, in plain site, a crumpled up paper bag, half drank lacroix, old sweatshirt, or some other enticing goodie on my driver seat, to invite a car break in, because it's such an absolute privilege to have Chantos replace your glass. read more

God Bless Yelp! Without it, I wouldn't have found Chantos and 101 Auto Glass. After my car was broken into, I called my insurance company, who referred me to Safelite. Their price seemed steep plus they did not have an appointment open for mobile service for a week (and they charged an additional $25 for this). The only way I could get my window replaced the next day was if I was willing and able to drive down to Union City (around 45 minutes south of me). I looked on Yelp and saw several local businesses who offered mobile service and quotes via the Yelp messaging system. I got a response from two of the three businesses I contacted. Chantos gave me the best price plus was available for same-day service. He was great at communicating via text when he would arrive and finished the job in 45 minutes. Chantos is very friendly and professional and I felt instantly at ease with him. He said he doesn't have to advertise which is why he can offer such great rates. After a horrible experience like getting your car broken into, it was a wonderful way to fix the problem. I highly recommend 101 Auto Glass for fast, reasonable and efficient service if you are unfortunate enough to get your car window broken. read more

Fabulous experience getting my car window replaced after it got smashed out and my 6 year old child's school backpack got stolen. I'd never had my car broken into, so was pretty shaken by the whole experience. But Chantos made it literally the easiest thing possible to get fixed. I emailed him late at night, he responded the next morning, we scheduled a time for a few hours later, he showed up at my apartment exactly when he said he would, fixed the window and cleaned out all the glass for me. I can't remember how long it took, but I remember being impressed by the speed. The relief was extreme! Chantos is a very cool guy, super nice too. If this ever happens again - oh lord, please no! - at least I can breathe out the stress of worrying about getting my window replaced. read more

Chantos came to me first thing on the Tuesday after Labor Day and did the window replacement in what felt like minutes. A further selling point is he has a bonsai tree on the dash of his van. Great vibes, great service. A tip he left with me: don't leave your hatch area cover on, the zombies smash through the rear window to pull the seats down looking for backpacks, cameras and computers. All I had back there was an old bike helmet and some Trader Joe's bags. Downtown Oakland is a hotbed of smash and grabs unfortunately. read more

It was Christmas eve and we were driving to a party all excited and happy very close to our exit The driver in front of us decides to go over this solid white line before exiting the freeway and as you know there are lots of debris and rocks sitting outside these lines Lucky us one did hit the windshield and chipped it. After doing some research on yelp I decided to give 101 auto glass a call. Chantos was able to schedule me for the same day he showed up on time took care of the problem for a very reasonable amount. The damage is barely noticeable but every single situation is different after all I am very pleased with the level of service and the result. Well my bad luck continued three weeks later I got hit again and this time I had a 4 inch crack call Chantos again he was very busy that they scheduled me for 8 o'clock at night showed up on time took care of the problem If you have a Chip or a small crack 101 Auto glass is the place and the only place you should call. read more

Very efficient communication and service, let alone kind, neat and affordable. Also, even more timely than expected. Thank you 101 Auto Glass! read more

Chantos, you da man! My drivers side window was broken into in my own apartment complex garage, all while I wasn't even in town. When I got back I found that glass was all over my front AND back seats so I definitely needed mobile service. I called up 101 Auto Glass and Chantos said he'd be there in an hour. When he got here, he got himself set up and was finished in 45 minutes! I paid $160 for the window replacement AND glass clean up - all while I was comfortably seated on my own bed watching Netflix. Sometimes I'm weary of all 5-star reviews but this one definitely makes sense. Fast repair, reasonable price, cheerful service - I can't think of any ways this horrible experience could've been any better. MONEY WELL SPENT. read more

Rule #1 When visiting the Bay Area: Never leave anything valuable in your car. Someone broke into my car around Union Square last night and all of the glass repair shops were already closed. Chantos answered my call this morning and was at my place within the hour. The whole installation was finished within 30 minutes, and he even cleaned out all of the glass lodged in the seat. The window works great, and compared to the other shops nearby, this was definitely the best deal... some were charging $400 for a simple fix. 1000% Recommend this service!!!! Best in town!!! read more

101 Auto Glass - Freshly installed window on my Toyota Camry. All I need to do now is get it tinted. - Windshield Installation & Repair Near Me - Berkeley, California

Great service and price! After calling around found this to be the best pricing to replace a cracked windshield! Called at 10 am and received a same day home appointment at 3 pm. The process was professional, and took less than 2 hours. The work was clean and neat. Chantos even transferred the Oil Changers appointment sticker from the old windshield to the new windshield. Looked just like new. Because my car has all the lane change and close car detection to prevent accidents, he was very careful regarding alignment of the windshield. Encouraged me to call him if any issues arises. And since these cars are all electronic, warned that the car may need recalibration after the replacement. But after a test ride, all detections worked perfectly. A+ service! read more

See all

I called Chantos on the recommendation by Fast Mobile Autoglass (his nephew) bc they only do full windshield replacements and I thought I only had one small chip. There are some very good reviews for Chantos and I was encouraged but the job he did for me was sub par for both me and AAA. Chantos was fast to pick up the call and instructed me how to work through AAA. Everything was set up and he arrived timely. Great so far. He took several calls while on the job. Ok - he's a mobile guy - fine. Chantos got another call to replace a full windshield so he took off. Upon immediate inspection, there was another small but growing chip (same incident) leas than a foot away and I asked him to come back within 30 seconds. He did. When he got back, he told me that AAA would not pay for this on the same ticket and that I can open another ticket or pay him directly. Ouch! So I called AAA while he was there. AAA got on the phone and asked him to repair this other small pit out of courtesy which their network shops normally does. He said no and left. AAA immediately set me up w their Safelite network. Safelite repairs all chips for the same $65 price. So if you have multiple chips go w AAA's suggestion. To Chantos' credit, he did call at the end of the day and offered to return and fix the chip but I'd already spent the additional time and got the rest of the small chips taken care of by Safelite. Look, I like going w mom and pop shops and I hope that this was an anomaly w 101. Best of luck! read more

Just called Chantos this morning (President's Day) & he came to my house in 1 hour, fixed chip on my Prius windshield, $60, fast, professional & fair price. This guy ROCKS!!! (Btw, this is the 2nd time I used him.) read more

A couple of weeks ago, my VW took a rock to the lower windshield while driving on I-8 in El Cajon. For three weeks it was nothing more than an eyesore. All that changed when I drove up to Santa Rosa for the Holidays. As the temperatures plummeted, the eyesore became a big problem. 4 consecutive mornings below 30 degrees turned a nickle sized divot into a 32 inch crack. Needless to say, I needed the car to get back to SD so getting it fixed was priority #1. I left a message with 2 different shops and Chantos got back to me within an hour. He gave me an estimate and told me he could do it same day....SOLD! After setting up a time, the second shop left a message with a quote $175 over 101 Auto Glass's. Chantos arrived on time, all setup and ready to go, and within an hour he was done and cleaned up. read more

Chantos is MY MAN! After getting a windshield crack that kept growing and he came out the day I called and had it all done within an hour or so. Great man and definitely recommend read more

It's not every day you get service like this! My car was broken into when I was staying at an Emeryville hotel. Bummer. But one call- Chantos got the replacement window, came to me within an hour - for real! He replaced the broken window, cleaned up the shards all over the inside, and blessed my car!! Such a great guy! With all I still had to do I made it home before 9pm. Thank you! A+! read more

Chantos went above and beyond replacing my windshield. I've worked in the auto industry for many years and he impressed me. Honest, easy, great prices, and extremely kind - I can't help but sing my praises for Chantos and his business. Ken Fukuda Instructor, Simraceway Performance Driving Center read more

Don't go anywhere else, you found the best!! Honest, easy going, unbeatable service. One of the rare instances in which a horrible situation (my window got smashed into and my stuff stolen) was turned into a moment to appreciate humanity. Thanks for all your help! read more

Still AWESOME, 4 years later from our first time since we used 101 Auto Glass. A truck was spilling rocks from the back and hit our windshield in multiple places. We called 101 again and they came through beautifully. His prices are very reasonable and he did a great job fixing my windshield which saved us hundreds since it's on a car model with a pricey windshield to replace. Thanks again 101 Glass! read more

Someone smashed the back window of my Mazda hatchback and I needed to get the glass replaced within the day. Not only was Chantos able to come out to replace the window that morning, but he was also able to find a used replacement window, which saved me a significant amount of money! The whole process was quick, smooth, and overall a great experience. After the stress my car getting vandalized, I am glad that replacing the glass through 101 Auto Glass was so easy. read more

A+ service. Windshield got cracked on 880s - we considered a crack repair and ended up with a new windshield due to the spreading of the crack. Chantos was up front, friendly, and efficient. He kept me informed every step of the way and I wouldn't hesitate to call him again. Thanks!! read more

Best price, fastest repair, and a super nice guy. This will be the first place I call next time!

Chantos answered the phone right away, was polite and interested, and said he could come look at my wife's van the same day! He gave me a couple price options, one to get the window to just roll up, and how much to replace the regulator if I chose. He is completely affordable and if we ever need more windows fixed, he's the first one I'd call! Highly recommended! read more

First class service and on time delivery. Had a tough job for them to do and 101 Auto delivered. I will not use anyone else in the future since I know Chantos can be trusted wIth a challenging job. read more

Great guy, great service, fair price! Chantos was able to replace my window, after I woke up to vandalism on a pouring rain holiday, no less. Since he is mobile, we met at the IKEA garage and he was done in 30 minutes. Super friendly and went above and beyond to vacuum all the glass everywhere. I will definitely use him again! (Since this seems to be a common occurrence in SF...) read more

I got a crack in my windshield while driving up to the mountains. I reached out to 101 Autoglass and they handle it perfectly all in the same day. Quick, responsive, quality work done at a fair price. He was finished with replacing the window in under 90 mins. read more
