Windshield & Auto Glass Care in Michigan City, IN

There are various types of windshield cracks, but most occur from a foreign object striking the glass, usually a rock kicked up by the tires of another car or an object that falls off another vehicle. When the outside edge of the windshield is struck, it usually results in one long crack, while when the center of the glass is struck it tends to cause starburst cracks. A windshield crack can often begin as a small chip. As a rule, cracks less than six inches can be repaired, but those that are longer, or reach the edge of the windshield, usually require replacement of the entire windshield.

It’s discouraging when your car’s windshield develops a crack, but Glass Doctor^® of Michigan City will make the experience as painless as possible. Our specialists repair or replace windshields, as well as sunroofs, mirrors, back glass and side windows.
