Default Who installs YOUR glass

I am looking for good installers for stained glass in Los Angeles, where
code requires door and window installations be done by a licensed
contractor. Could you share how you have found contractors to install your
glass work?

Thanks
Z

My smaller local contractors here are scared to death of touching it. The
big ones want no part of a small job like this. I do it myself with paid
helpers if needed, doing alot of the dirty work.

Well, LA is a pretty big area. You might check with your local Builders
Association. they might be able to refer you to someone. Try the Yellow
Pages under "Contractors" or maybe "Carpeters". Double check references
and make sure they show you a copy of thier insurance bond. Last
option...get you contractors licence and do it yourself...if you can
afford it. I hear it's pretty pricey in CA to get it.

P.S.:

I'd call the Greek Orthodox or Roman Catholic church at their diocesan
offices and ask them who installed the glass in their new cathederals.
Another possibility is The Getty. You might also want to check the
conservation department at The Getty if their building projects or facility
manager isn't quick with the information.
