About Windshield Repair
- Location: The location of the chip or crack has a direct impact on the possibility of repair. For example, repairing the area will leave a vision-obscuring blur if the chip or crack occurs directly in front of the driver's eyes. Likewise, if there is a crack on the windshield's perimeter, it is likely to spread, making repair more difficult.
- Size: Windshield repair should be possible if the crack is less than three inches in length. Likewise, we can fix chips if they are smaller than 3/8 inch.
- Festering damage: Windshield damage becomes worse over time. In addition to their tendency to spread, cracks accumulate dirt, which obstructs repairs. The sooner you bring your vehicle in for repair, the easier it is to fix your windshield.
We will perform all your insurance paperwork to give you more incentive to fix the damage early on. We accept coverage from almost all major providers, but you should still call your insurance agent before visiting us to ensure the repairs are covered.
Our Windshield Repair Process
When it is possible, windshield crack repair and chip repair is preferable to replacement. The benefits of windshield repair make it an excellent first option for vehicle owners.
Windshield Repair Benefits
Cost: Even if you're paying out-of-pocket, you can repair your windshield for only a fraction of the replacement cost.
Coverage: Most insurance providers cover windshield crack repair in total, meaning you will not have to pay anything out-of-pocket if you choose the repair option.
Convenience: Typically, repairs take less time to complete than windshield replacements.
Environmental Impact: Replacing a windshield uses energy and natural resources, and the old windshield will end up in a landfill. Repairs have none of these harmful environmental effects.
