FAQ Automotive
Q: Can you fix the rock chip in my windshield? A: Yes, we can repair rock hits under the size of a quarter. They take approximately 15-20 minutes and your vehicle needs to be brought in here to the shop. It's best you make an appointment or you can call first to see if a tech. is here to do the repair.
Q: How does a repair work? A: We drill a hole into your windshield that goes to a plastic, we extract the air, shoot a polyermer inside to fill the cracks, then we seal it with an ultra violet light. You will still see your hit, some repairs clear up better than others depending on the initial degree of impact.
Q: Can you replace my windshield on the road? A: We can replace your windshield on the road, depending on your location. We do work around the weather. It needs to be above 40 degrees, not raining, snowing, and not too windy. There is no additional cost!
Q: Will my insurance cover my windshield repair? A: Yes. As far as we know, State Farm is the only insurance that no longer waives your deductible for a repair. All you need to do is simply file a claim and you pay nothing for your repair.

Q: Can you cut down the glass I already own? A: So long as your glass is not tempered, then we can cut it down for you. However, we do need to take off a minimum of double the thickness. Ex: With 1/4" we need to take off atleast 1/2". If you are unsure of what you have, please bring it by so we can take a look.

Q: Can you get a glass for my patio furniture? A: We can order tempered glass to replace your patio furniture glass. However, in most cases the glass is more costly than a new set. If it's a small square table, there's no problem. The big circles with a hole in the center can be very expensive. We are more than happy to give you a price quote.
