Can you repair a chipped windshield or does it need replacement?
In many cases, small chips and cracks (under 6 inches) can be repaired without replacing the entire windshield. Our technicians will inspect the damage and recommend the best option. Repairing early can prevent full replacement and save money. See our Windshield Repair page for details.
Do you use OEM or aftermarket glass?
We offer both OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) and high-quality aftermarket glass options based on your preference and insurance coverage. Every windshield or window we install meets or exceeds industry safety standards, ensuring a perfect fit and long-lasting durability. Not sure which is right for you? Our team is happy to explain the differences during your appointment.
How do I know if my glass damage is safe to drive with?
If your windshield has a crack in the driver’s line of sight, spans more than a few inches, or is spreading, it’s best to avoid driving until it’s inspected. Even small chips can compromise visibility and structural integrity. Our experts offer fast assessments and can let you know if repair or replacement is the safer option—often the same day.
How long does a windshield replacement take?
Most jobs take 45–60 minutes, depending on the vehicle and adhesive cure time.
Do you accept insurance?
Yes! We work directly with most major insurance providers to help streamline your auto glass claim, saving you time and hassle. Our team will verify your coverage, file the paperwork, and in many cases, the repair or windshield replacement may be fully covered with no out-of-pocket cost. Learn more on our Auto Glass Replacement page or call us to verify your insurance eligibility.
Can I drive immediately after a replacement?
We recommend waiting at least 60 minutes after a windshield replacement before driving to allow the adhesive to cure properly and ensure your safety. This bonding time is critical for maintaining structural integrity in case of impact. We’ll always advise you on the safe drive-away time during your appointment. Visit our Windshield Replacement service page for more details.
