Windshield Repair
Modern Windshields are made of laminated glass. Small rocks and stones can cause chips, stars, and bullseyes, on your windshield that can quickly lead to long cracks. These can be repaired with special equipment that evacuates the air from the break and injects a clear resin sealing the damage and stopping it from cracking further. Once your windshield is cracked you have no choice but to replace the glass. It is illegal to have a cracked windshield in the state of Florida. Also having a cracked windshield becomes a safety hazard because up to 60% of the strength of your roof is supported by the windshield. The best windshield you will ever have is the original windshield installed by the factory. Many technicians install aftermarket glass improperly. Many lease companies will not accept a lease turn in with non OEM aftermarket glass. Since repair is around $50 and a replacement average is almost around $300 most technicians opt to replace rather than repair them. Many times your comprehensive insurance will wave the deductable if you opt for repair than replacement. See our pictures for what type of damages are repairable rather than replaceable.
