Schedule Windshield RepairHow Can You Tell Whether You Need Auto Glass Repair or Replacement?
Determining whether windshield damage can be repaired or requires replacement depends on several factors. While some issues are easy to identify, others may need a professional assessment to ensure safety.
Here’s what to look for:
- Size of the damage: Chips smaller than a quarter or cracks shorter than three inches are often repairable.
- Location of the damage: Chips or cracks near the edges of the windshield can compromise structural integrity and may require replacement.
- Depth of the damage: If the damage penetrates multiple layers of glass, a replacement is usually necessary.
- Line of sight: Damage directly in the driver’s line of vision may not be repairable due to potential distortion after fixing.
- Spreading cracks: If cracks are actively growing, a replacement may be the safest option.
When in doubt, bring your vehicle to our shop for a thorough inspection. Our team can assess the damage and recommend the best course of action to ensure your safety.
What Types of Car Window Repairs Are Possible?
Whether your vehicle is a car, truck, SUV, or specialty vehicle, minor chips and cracks are typically repairable. However, certain situations may require additional attention.
For example, windshields made of laminated glass can often be repaired, while tempered glass—common for side and rear windows—cannot.
Vehicles with integrated sensors or cameras in the windshield may require recalibration after repairs or replacement.
How Quickly Should You Get Windshield Glass Repair?
Chips and cracks should be repaired as soon as possible to prevent further damage. Even minor issues can quickly worsen due to factors like temperature changes, road vibrations, or debris impact. Delaying repairs increases the risk of the damage spreading, which may lead to the need for a full windshield replacement.
If you’ve noticed a chip or crack, acting quickly can save you money while also ensuring your vehicle is safe to drive.
Does Windshield Crack Repair Restore the Strength of the Glass?
Our certified windshield glass repairs are designed to restore both the strength and integrity of your glass. By using modern repair techniques and high-quality resins that bond with the damaged area, we’re able to completely fill in cracks and prevent further spread. Once cured and polished, the resin reinforces the glass and restores its structural stability.
