Mobile heavy equipment glass in Farmington, Connecticut

ClearCab Equipment Glass brings the glass truck to Farmington: flat stock, pattern cutting gear and setting materials, priced from the rates published on this site.

Farmington glass work splits between the big and the leafy. On the big side, the UConn Health campus and the medical office corridor around it have kept cranes, excavators and telehandlers cycling for a decade. On the leafy side, the Valley estate properties feed a steady diet of land clearing, and land clearing is the single most glass-hostile work a machine can do.

Tree crews here run forestry-package machines with guarded cabs for a reason: a kickback limb tests the front screen weekly. But guards do not cover everything, and the door and rear panes on forestry mulchers and grapple skid steers in the Valley crack constantly. We stock the common flat sizes and cut the rest to pattern at the machine.

Campus and medical corridor work brings the opposite problem, machines that are nearly new with curved OEM glass. For those we order by serial number, confirm the part diagram with you, and schedule the install for the day the glass lands so the telehandler is not sitting fenced off and useless.

Frozen wood, flying wood

Farmington Valley tree companies tell us the worst month for glass is not storm season, it is February and March, when frozen wood behaves unpredictably under the saw and the mulcher head. Frozen oak does not bend before it lets go, it snaps and flies. If you run mulching heads in the Valley in late winter, keep a spare front poly panel in the shop, and call us for the glass positions the panel does not cover.
