Founded in 1980 by Les Riel and Ward Jackson, Central Valley Glass has established itself as the premier full-service glass and window shop in Yakima Valley, Washington. The company began as a small operation in a single-car garage, evolving through strategic growth and relocations until settling in its current facility at 30 W. Mead Ave. in 1990. After a solid foundation built by the original owners, Central Valley Glass saw a change in ownership in May 2022 when Tim Reed and Jamon Rivera, new to Yakima, took the reins. Recognizing the company’s strong reputation and commitment to customer service, they embraced the opportunity to continue the legacy that Les and Ward built.
With over 40 years in business, Central Valley Glass aims to be more than a typical supplier of glass products. The company aspires to be a valued partner for its customers, offering services ranging from simple window repairs to comprehensive window and door solutions for new construction projects. Their focus on exceptional customer service sets them apart in an industry often criticized for its lack of attention to client needs.
The philosophy at Central Valley Glass emphasizes quality, service, and community connection, striving to uphold the founders’ initial vision while adapting to modern demands. Tim and Jamon are committed to fostering a family environment within the company, which they believe is integral to building long-lasting relationships with their clients. As they look toward the future, Central Valley Glass remains dedicated to maintaining its leadership position in the glass and window industry, ensuring that customer satisfaction is always at the forefront of their business.
