lass Doctor® of North Vancouver will help you determine whether to repair or replace a damaged windshield. In deciding whether your windshield can be repaired, or requires replacement, Glass Doctor considers the following factors:
- Size: Chips larger than one centimetre, and cracks more than seven centimetres in length, generally require windshield replacement.
- Location: Chips directly in the line of vision normally require replacement since repairs generally do not cure clearly, creating potentially dangerous disruptions in your line of vision. In addition, a crack near the edge of your windshield typically requires replacement due to the likelihood of it spreading.
- Timespan: Overtime, dirt can accumulate in chips and cracks making a successful repair more challenging.
While Glass Doctor can repair most chipped windshields, a crack in your windshield typically necessitates replacement to protect the structural integrity of your car, and the safety of passengers. The glass specialists at Glass Doctor of North Vancouver have the skills and experience to address your windshield replacement and repair needs.
In addition, Glass Doctor of North Vancouver is an approved Glass Express shop - customers can have their windshield claims processed without a separate call or visit to ICBC.
