Windshield Replacement & Repair in Houma, LA

Any windshield damage poses a serious danger to both you and passengers, making repair or replacement an immediate priority. If you need help now, contact Glass Doctor® of Houma to receive expert assistance at a moment's notice. Our specialists repair minor chips, but if the damage exceeds three inches in size, windshield replacement is the safest solution.

Windshield Damage Assessment

In order to determine if repair or a completely new installation is best, our glass specialists will examine several aspects of your windshield damage:

Windshield Glass Replacement

Location: Any fissures or cracks in your windshield that have expanded to the edge of the glass should be replaced immediately. Likewise, cracks or chips in the windshield that obscure your line of sight are best fixed with a new windshield installation.

Size: Typically any chips in the glass that exceed 3/8 inch require the windshield to be replaced. Cracks that are longer than three inches warrant a new installation as well.

Time Elapsed: Waiting an extended period of time to repair your damaged windshield will make replacement that much more challenging. Dirt and other materials will get into the damaged area over time, often requiring a new windshield to be installed.

To save you time, Glass Doctor of Houma works will all top auto insurance providers and we'll even handle the paperwork on your behalf. To expedite the repair or replacement process, it's recommended to contact your insurance agent to ensure your windshield is covered.

Windshield Repair

The majority of windshield repairs are completed on-location in less than 30 minutes, preventing the damage from becoming more extensive and reducing any inconvenience to your normal schedule.

Glass Doctor of Houma will advise windshield repair instead of replacement for several reasons:

  • Affordability: Repairing your windshield will cost much less than a fresh installation.
  • Convenience: The majority of windshield repairs will be completed in under an hour.
  • Insurance Benefits: Most insurance providers are more than happy to waive your deductible, paying for the repair of your windshield in full.
  • Environmentally Friendly: Broken windshields end up at landfills where they will remain forever, making windshield repair an eco-friendly solution.

First, any debris or dirt is removed from the damaged area of your windshield, so our repair resin can effectively set. This special resin is injected into your windshield until it is fully cured. Afterwards our seasoned specialists will polish the area to a crystal clear finish.
