Windshield Repair and Replacement

It may be a small chip or a large crack that runs across the entire length of your windshield. In either case, a glass specialist from Glass Doctor^® of Jackson, MI will help you determine if your vehicle’s windshield needs to be repaired or fully replaced. Replacing your damaged windshield is important not only for aesthetic reasons but also to re-establish the structural integrity of your vehicle.

Jackson auto glass specialists consider a few factors when deciding between windshield repair and replacement. 

• Size: To avoid damage spreading across your windshield our auto glass specialists replace windshields with chips larger than a quarter and cracks longer than three inches.   
• Location: Chips and cracks located near the edge of your vehicle’s windshield and in the direct line of vision of the driver warrant immediate replacement.  
• Timespan: Chips and cracks will begin to accumulate dirt and other debris, clouding the windshield. It is important to replace the windshield before this becomes a serious problem.
