Kumar Glass

You can find our shop on Lamba Pind Road in Kishanpura. We work with glass all day, which means we have to be pretty careful from the moment we open. The shop is full of big sheets and small scraps. We cut everything to size for windows or tables or whatever someone needs. It’s a noisy place because of the cutting machines and the grinding. I've been doing this for many years now and I've got the scars to prove it. People bring in their measurements written on old scraps of paper or even on the back of a cigarette pack. Sometimes the measurements are a bit off, and we have to try and fix it on the fly. We don't have a fancy showroom with lights. It’s just a dusty workshop with glass leaning against every wall. You really have to watch where you step when you come inside. We do some basic mirror work too. The road outside is usually packed with traffic, so it gets quite loud with all the horns. We just try to focus on the task at hand and not get distracted. If someone needs a piece of glass replaced at their house, they usually come and find us here. We don't have a sales team or anyone in suits. I usually answer the phone myself while I'm in the middle of a cut. It’s just how it is. We finish the work, and the customers come back to pick it up later. Simple as that.
