Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to common questions about windshield repair.
Road debris or a rock can cause a chip in your windshield. The damaged area can be prevented from spreading in size by injecting a resin into the fracture. The process bonds the glass together and adds strength to that area. Visual clarity is also improved.
As soon as possible. Rock chips and cracks usually continue to spread until a repair is performed. Dirt and grime will also collect in the damaged area and result in a less favorable looking repair.
A chip repair will take about 30 minutes to complete.
Most chip repairs start at $99. We also give Free Estimates for any type of chip repair or crack.
Yes, having a chip repair done on your vehicle will strengthen the break and keep it from cracking. However it is still a weak point and it’s possible to crack from there if subjected to stress.
Yes, if a quarter cannot cover the damaged area, it probably isn’t
repairable. In these cases we recommend a new windshield.
Yes, but it is rare. The glass is in a fragile state and if put under
stress during the repair process it could get worse. This is more
likely to happen if the break is close to the edge of the glass. If we
see that the damage is getting worse we will stop the repair.
Barely, most chips will be less noticeable after the repair. You may
still be able to see the outline. Some chip repairs look better than
others. The sooner a chip is repaired after the damage has occurred
the better the results. Other factors like the size of the chip, how
much glass was crushed on impact and what area of the windshield
is damaged will effect the likelihood of a satisfactory repair.
No, any moisture will cause the repair to fail. On rainy days we can
do the repair in a covered area or just reschedule the appointment.
