Frequently Asked Questions About Auto Glass

  • Should I Fix a Chipped or Cracked Windshield Right Away?

    Yes! Even small chips can spread, growing into more significant cracks that require full replacement. Getting the problem fixed quickly can save you both time and money.

  • Does Insurance Cover Windshield Chip Repair?

    Most insurance policies cover chip repair and often waive your deductible for this service.

  • Can I Choose My Own Auto Glass Repair Shop?

    Absolutely! You can select the preferred shop, even if your insurance company suggests one.

  • Why Is Choosing a Quality Repair Shop Important?

    Your windshield is a crucial safety feature. Improper installation can weaken it, potentially affecting its performance in an accident. Reputable shops use high-quality materials and trained technicians to ensure a safe and lasting repair.

  • What Makes a Windshield Different From Other Car Windows?

    Windshields are made of laminated safety glass, specifically designed to hold together in an impact and protect you. Other car windows are typically tempered glass, which shatters into small pieces.

    Lower-quality glass may be more prone to future cracks, leaks, and other issues. Discussing your options with a reputable shop to find the balance of quality and affordability that works for you is best.

    Repairs can often be completed quickly, depending on the extent of the damage. However, the adhesive needs time to fully cure before driving your car safely. Allow at least an hour after installation for the car to be ready.
