History

Blue Water Glass, Inc. was created in 1999 by Dana Ulmer.

With humble beginnings, Blue Water Glass started to fabricate and install glass and glazing for HUD projects in Detroit. As well as local storefront systems in the Port Huron area. We incorporated in the state of Michigan in 2002 and began collaborating with national retail companies like Gap & Victoria’s Secret. In 2006, we started working with Apple installing stainless steel storefront and glass systems across the nation. Quickly our abilities expanded to not only furnishing labor, but also fabricating and supplying the custom designed systems.

In 2016, we expanded our 12,000 Sq.ft. facility to a 105,000 Sq.ft. headquarters.

Blue Water Glass, Inc. has now grown to over 60 full-time employees consisting of 2 architects, 3 engineers, 7 project managers, 4 estimators and supporting staff to provide dedicated attention to in-house design, engineering, & fabrication.

Blue Water Glass, Inc. has the ability to take your vision from its conception to its completion.

Philosophy

For the past 20 years, Dana Ulmer has instilled the Company with the passion and commitment to actualize the clients visions that others say “NO” to. From the beginning, Dana has put all available resources back into Blue Water Glass via investing in the people and equipment that allows our clients visions to become a reality. At Blue Water Glass the answer is always “YES, it can be done”.
