When your windshield becomes damaged or shatters, receiving professional repair immediately should be your primary concern. You will drive your restored vehicle with confidence when you choose Glass Doctor® of Great Falls, MT as your partner in repair. Our qualified specialists can fill most chips in glass onsite, although any damage extending more than three inches in length will warrant replacement of the windshield altogether.
In order to determine if your windshield requires replacement or repair, a number of factors are evaluated:
Location: Cracks along the edge of the windshield spell trouble for vehicle owners. We often recommend replacement, as this type of damage tends to spread across a windshield, affecting the edge seal. Windshield damage that interferes with your view of the road will require replacement service because the repair leaves a blurred area that may distract drivers.
Size: The majority of chips in the glass exceeding 3/8 of an inch will require replacement of the windshield. Cracks that are larger than three inches are also too big to simply be repaired.
Time Span: The longer you neglect having windshield repair conducted, the more extensive the damage will become. Eventually, this will make it virtually impossible to perform a successful repair.
Glass Doctor of Great Falls works with all major auto insurance providers and we will even complete the paperwork so you don't have to. However, it's recommended to contact your insurance agent to ensure your windshield replacement or repair is covered.
A small crack will easily grow in size, posing a significant risk to your loved ones. Get in touch with Glass Doctor today and allow our glass specialists to perform all necessary repairs or replacements to your windshield.
