Don't Let A Small Chip Turn Into Something Worst....
Save money and repair your windshield... Don't replace it!
​
We believe in repairing a windshield instead of replacing it. Windshield replacement can cost $150 to well over $500 depending on the type of windshield and technology integrated into it. We will do everything in our power to help you save that money!
​
With the state of today's roads, an impact to your windshield can happen at any time and can quickly turn into an irreparable crack. A minor windshield crack or chip can be repaired if it is taken care of in time. Once repaired, you will benefit from a windshield that will regain its original strength and provide complete protection.
​
​
HOW DO YOU KNOW IF THE DAMAGE IS REPAIRABLE?
​
Evaluate the risk- It is important to identify the type of crack or chip that is on your windshield in order to assess the severity of the impact. There are several types of repairable cracks. Here are some examples:
A CRACKED WINDSHIELD CAN HAVE TWO MAIN CAUSES:
​
An Impact: This is the most common situation that usually occurs when a rock or road debris hits the windshield.
Stress Cracks: This is a crack without a point of impact. The most common causes are temperature changes, pressure changes and structural defects. This type of crack is difficult to repair because it usually starts at the edge of the windshield and often extends very quickly.
​
In any case, it is important to act quickly. A windshield is designed to be strong. Its concave shape contributes to its resistance to external pressure and aerodynamics. Each cm2 can absorb up to 180 kg / cm2 of pressure. However, a simple crack can considerably weaken its strength, dropping its resistance to 30 kg / cm2.
​
Take care of your chip before it becomes an irreversible crack!
