While they may be simple to ignore, cracks and chips in windshields require immediate professional attention. The seemingly minor imperfections are more than eyesores, as the impacts may significantly reduce a vehicle's safety and structural integrity. As soon as you notice an effect in your windshield, contact Glass Doctor® of Ashland to schedule a windshield repair or replacement.
Windshield Repair Benefits
The glass specialists at Glass Doctor of Ashland will always do a windshield repair instead of a replacement when it's a viable option because:
-
Convenience: Most repairs take less than 60 minutes, and we'll gladly work around your schedule.
-
Save money: Repairing a crack or chip is more economical than replacing an entire windshield.
-
Effectiveness: Our windshield repairs restore a vehicle's structural integrity and safety.
-
Insurance assistance: Some insurance companies cover the cost of a windshield repair and waive the deductible. Talk to your insurance agent to learn if your policy offers this coverage.
-
Earth friendly: Auto glass often isn't recyclable. Windshield repairs reduce landfill waste and the demand for resources and save energy.
Windshield Repair vs. Windshield Replacement
Even though Glass Doctor of Ashland prefers to repair windshields, there are instances when replacements are the safest option, such as:
- Age of impact: Older impacts have more dirt and grime, making them more challenging to repair successfully.
- Size: Glass specialists repair chips that are 3/8 inches or larger and cracks that are 3 inches or longer. Keep impacts from growing by not using the defrost setting in your vehicle when the weather is cold.
- Location: Windshields that have impacts around the glass' edge or in the line of sight require replacements.
- Windshield glass type: Because it is designed to shatter upon impact, glass specialists always repair windshields made of tempered glass, regardless of the impact's size or location.
Windshield Protection Plan
When Glass Doctor of Ashland replaces your windshield, we'll back it with the Windshield Protection Plan for 12 months. If a normal road hazard damages the new windshield, we'll take care of it free of charge. Limits and exclusions apply.
