During inspection, a variety of factors are evaluated to determine whether or not a windshield replacement is needed or if a simple repair will suffice.

Location: Chips or scratches that obscure your view when driving are hazardous; replacing the windshield is often recommended instead of repairs. Cracks that are located near the edge of the windshield are also considered quite dangerous and windshield replacement is the best option.

Size: For cracks longer than three inches, replacement is often required. For larger chips in the glass, if the damaged area is more than 3/8 of an inch, our specialists will suggest a windshield replacement.
