Windshield Chip Repair Services
Before a minor issue turns into a big problem, bring your vehicle in for windshield chip repair service. In general, windshields can be repaired if the crack or chip is 6 inches or smaller, there are a total of three chips or less, and the damage is not in front of a camera or sensor. There are a number of advantages that come from having a minor issue with your windshield repaired instead of putting it off.
- Affordability — In most cases, your insurance will cover the repair. Even if you pay out of pocket, the costs are significantly lower than a complete windshield replacement.
- Quick — Windshield repairs can take as little as 30 minutes to complete, letting you get back on the road sooner than you may have imagined.
- Preventative — Left unattended, small chips or cracks can spread and get worse with time. Having your windshield repaired at the first sign of a problem can prevent future headaches and unexpected expenses.
