Windshield Damage Repair

The most common type of auto glass damage is a cracked or chipped front windshield. There's nothing you can do to prevent road debris from striking the windshield, but knowing your auto glass repair options alleviates the associated stress.

Usually, Glass Doctor of Burnaby, can repair cracks up to about three inches long and chips about the size of a dime. It's important to keep the nature of glass damage in mind when judging how to handle a repair:

• Cracks spread quickly; a small crack will soon grow into something that can't be repaired.
• Chips also become more difficult to repair the longer they are exposed to the elements.
• Windshield damage is a safety concern. Cracks and chips reduce the strength of the glass and allow it to shatter into jagged pieces in the event of a collision.

Call Glass Doctor of Burnaby, for a professional opinion of your glass damage. Delays can be costly and dangerous.
