Facing the aftermath of a windshield impact from a flying rock can be inconvenient, especially when you lack the assistance of a qualified auto expert. Even the tiniest chips can escalate into more significant issues when left unattended.
In LaGrange, where the weather tends to fluctuate, chips become more prone to cracking. Fortunately, your nearby Glass Doctor can address various chip types.
Repairing vs. Replacing Your Windshield
The decision between repairing or replacing a windshield depends on the size of the chip it has sustained. For example, a chip with a diameter of less than 25 mm (equivalent to one inch) is generally eligible for repair, whereas a chip exceeding 40 mm (approximately 1.6 inches) requires a full replacement.
Our skilled service professionals will assess your windshield's structural soundness and provide recommendations accordingly. Remember, it's vital to contact an expert promptly upon chip discovery to enhance the chances of a successful repair or replacement.
Windshield Replacement
In cases where the chip exceeds a diameter of 40 mm, our service professionals will recommend a windshield replacement to prevent the possibility of more substantial chips forming in the future. For windshields with cracks, replacement is the best solution.
We place great importance on ensuring customer satisfaction, and when you select us as your repair and replacement experts, you can rest assured that unexpected delays will not be a concern.
