After taking over in 1963, Gene Cohen expanded Portland Glass into new markets, offering storefront glass services and opening more locations. Portland Glass strengthened its commercial glass services with the 2016 acquisition of Cumberland County Glass. Portland Glass is one of the leading home services brands owned by Neighborly.
