Rick is not only a gentleman but a master craftsman in his field. I’m so lucky I came across him because he’s a perfectionist and truly passionate about doing great work (a rare find). He’s the type of guy you... read more hope you got placed next to at the bar because not only will he tell you about the art of glass restoration but also some funny stories along the way. Rick completely fixed my Mercedes 1955 190 Sl glass (a car I only trust with the best). He’s a great guy and I’m extremely grateful. Thanks Rick!

October 4, 2025Rick is the original glass restoration pro. He paved the way for other glass restoration companies to emerge, and his experience shows in every project he touches. Over the years, he’s taught me many time-saving techniques and industry tricks that... read more only come with decades of hands-on expertise. We’ve referred customers back and forth for several years, and he’s the only person I trust enough to send my own clients to. His flawless glass scratch-removal work is truly the best I’ve ever seen. Unscratch the Surface is the company you want when you have high expectations for the final finish on your home’s glass panes. Their results speak for themselves.

November 28, 2025Rick has THE BEST customer service! He saved the day under the wire and made the impossible happen for me. My family has a mom & pop shop in Noe Valley, San Francisco we desperately needed to fix... read more our window storefront in less than 24 hours in time for a CBS interview. I called every one in the San Francisco Bay Area (San Francisco, San Jose, the peninsula, and Sacramento) and understandably no one could open up their schedule to do the work in such a tight time frame. Less than 24 hours is tall order! I reached Rick earlier that day and I remembered how nice he was. All hope was lost, it was past 5pm and I had no one, but I called Rick again since I remembered how nice he was earlier that day. I made a second plea and he did me the huge curtesy of calling his friend, Don Leet, owner of Leet Glass Restoration in San Diego. That friend flew up to SF at 8:45pm that evening and started the work the next day at 7:30am in time to restore the window before my deadline. I couldn't have accomplished this in less than 24 hours without Rick's kindness. Even though he lived far away, he still offered an ear, glass education, and a fantastic solution to my problem. I appreciate him. He's a blessing to my family business even though we are far away. He is a great human being! Bless you big time dude!

March 6, 2024We are a roofing company in Ventura and accidentally damaged a window during one of our tear-offs. I had a heck of a time trying to find someone that would even come and take a look. Then I just happened... read more upon Unscratch The Surface.

October 13, 2025The classic muscle car I'm restoring had some deep scratches in the passenger window and light scratches in one of the quarter glass windows. Everyone I talked to said that the scratches could not be removed and my only option... read more was to find replacement original or aftermarket glass. Unfortunately no one would guarantee that any original glass I could find would not come with scratches or to buy aftermarket class that while close to original still were not be an exact fit. Either option being extremely expensive. Then I discovered Unscratch the Surface. Rick Evans with Unscratch the Surface was able to do what everyone said couldn't be done. He did a phenomenal job in removing the scratches and polishing the glass for my classic car and at a fraction of the cost for what it would to replacing the glass. The glass was so clear that after it was installed you couldn't tell there was any glass there. I understand that Rick also does scratch removal for residential and commercial buildings from small to huge projects with glowing reports of the quality of his work. If you have any need to remove scratches or repair to any glass you need to contact Rick at Unsctatch the Surface. you can't beat the quality of his work. From Leoonard Wagner
