Windshield Replacement

In some cases, windshield repair is impossible, and you will need to replace the windshield in your vehicle. Call us and we can help advise you on whether you need a windshield repair or a windshield replacement.

Here are some ways to tell if you need a windshield replacement: 

• If the chip is not less than 14 inches or the bull’s eye in the crack is longer than 3 inches, then go for replacement. Please don’t delay as it may quickly spread the chipping to other areas of the windshield.

• If the crack or chip has extended to the windshield’s edges and has reached the frame, consider replacing it. A repair in such a scenario is impossible, and continuing to drive will further compromise your safety, and other drivers safety as well.

• If the damage impairs the driver’s visibility, you should consider replacing the windshield instead of repairing it.
