Frequently Asked Questions

Q: By what means do I find out if auto glass damage can be restored?
This hinges on the type of crack or chip. The best alternative is to contact us and we will check out the chip. We'll let you know if it is a fix that could be made or if you are facing a windshield replacement. In either event, we'll coordinate with you and your insurance agency.

Q: Is there any major difference between OEM and OEE auto glass? Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) auto glass is produced by the same manufacturer as your original glass. Original Equipment Equivalent (OEE) automobile glass is built to the same benchmarks, but by a different corporation. Our customers can choose either.

Q: How long will it be before I can confidently operate my car?
You can usually drive away one hour after a windshield installation, or instantly after a fix or side window installation. Our experts use the absolute best materials, including the industry's first adhesive with a one-hour drive-away time for windshield installations. The specialist will forewarn you if any added time is needed.

Q: How soon can you get me in?
In many cases, we can get you scheduled for the same or next day service. Simply request an appointment or call us. We'll get you repaired quickly as we can.

Q: How will the windshield look after repair?
Your rock chip should become noticeably clearer when serviced. That being said, clearness is dependent upon the size, age, the amount of glass missing from the center, and the quantity of fragmented glass inside of the break. Whenever looking through the glass, vision should not be impaired.

Q: Are there any out of pocket expenditures to get my windshield repaired?
The answer depends on your insurance policy coverage. For glass repair services, most auto insurance companies waive the insurance deductible so you will not need to pay anything out of pocket. As a matter of fact, many insurance providers do not even count glass repairs as a claim. For glass replacement, you may not have to pay anything if your auto insurance includes full glass coverage. Having said that, if your policy includes a deductible for glass replacement, then you will be responsible for the deductible amount and your auto insurance provider will be responsible for any money over the deductible.

Q: What kind of parts do you use for your glass services?
We use the best glass, moulding, urethanes, and other installation materials to preserve and reinforce the safety features of your windshield.

Q: How quickly can I wash my motor vehicle after my windshield is replaced?
You can hand wash your motor vehicle as long as you keep high-pressure sprays of water well away from the windshield and moldings. Water or rain on the new windshield installation isn't a problem at all, in point of fact the moisture actually helps the curing process of the urethane adhesive sealant. You should wait at least 24 hours before washing your vehicle in a pressure type of car or truck wash. A high-pressure automatic car wash can ruin the new windshield seal and outer moldings before the urethane adhesive used in the new windshield installation has a chance to adequately cure. It's also necessary to leave at least one of the windows open at least 2 inches to reduce the pressurization in the vehicle when the doors are shut and when the heat or a/c is operated within the first day. Having a window a little open prevents the pressure build-up from ambient heat on a hot day and the pressure the heater or air conditioning unit develops inside the vehicle's cabin from pushing a hole through the new uncured urethane seal, creating an air or water leak.

Q: After I have my windshield replaced, how do I know if it was done right?
You don't! Without removing the windshield, it's impossible to tell if the windshield was prepared in the correct manner, if critical primers and correct flash times were used, or even if the proper amount and type of urethane was utilized. Once a windshield is installed all the crucial installation preparation steps are hidden under the moldings and black ceramic band. If it appears like a clean windshield, back glass, or another sort of auto glass installation and the moldings are lying the right way you can only suppose it was done right, and truthfully those things are only cosmetic, it's what is underneath and when and how it was done during the replacement installation process that counts. The only sure way to tell if a windshield or other type of auto glass is properly installed is to crash test it, but we sure don't recommend it.
