Mr. Glazier Secures $487k Annual Lease, Establishing Flagship Studio in Iconic D&D Building

Andrii Gurskyi started his journey in the glass industry at 22 with a window repair company, Window Repair NYC. Three years later, Mr. Glazier was born. Gurskyi’s dream was to build a strong, successful business, and over the past decade, Mr. Glazier has grown significantly thanks to the trust of architects, designers, management companies, and our loyal partners.

Next year, the company celebrates its 10-year anniversary—a major milestone the company marked by securing a 5,000 sq. ft. space in the D&D Building. TRD spoke with the Gurskyi and Mr. Glazier Operations Director Volodymyr Leschyshyn about how  they’re creating something extraordinary in the glazing industry with the new Mr. Glazier Studio.

What were the most important factors driving Mr. Glazier’s success over the past 10 years?

Gurskyi: Trust. I don’t believe any business can be built without trust—it’s the foundation of a successful company.

But trust is not given; it’s earned. And you have to work hard for it.

Over the years, we’ve built trust with our partners by consistently delivering on our promises and going above and beyond to meet their needs.

When we receive referrals with high-ticket sales, it’s a clear sign we’re doing everything right, and it fuels us with even more energy. Many of our partners have been with us since the early days of Mr. Glazier.

We’ve built strong relationships with management companies, and today we serve over 700 buildings across the city. These are relationships we’ve nurtured over time, and they continue to be a cornerstone of our success.

Leschyshyn: Transparency. From initial consultations to project delivery, we believe in clear, honest communication to ensure our clients and partners always know what to expect.

We prioritize keeping all customers informed about project timelines, budgets, and potential challenges. This openness fosters confidence and minimizes misunderstandings.

Our commitment to providing precise quotes and realistic timelines ensures that clients can trust us to deliver as promised, with no surprises or hidden costs.

Mistakes can happen in any industry, but at Mr. Glazier, we own them. By addressing issues promptly and offering solutions, we reinforce our reliability and professionalism.

Guskyi: And, of course, none of this would be possible without a great team. The right people in the company make all the difference.

I know this is just the beginning. The vision, the ambition, and the opportunities ahead are bigger than ever.

My vision was to create something truly unique in the glazing industry— something that doesn’t yet exist. The concept of Mr. Glazier Studio is all about redefining the role of glass in architecture and design.

We have crafted something extraordinary in the glass industry—a place where customization and innovation come together under one roof.

What are some of the products that will be on display at the Mr. Glazier Studio?
