Do You Need a Windshield Repair or Replacement?
The specialists at Glass Doctor of Edmonton decide to repair or replace damaged windshield glass based on factors such as:
Windshield location: Cracks along a windshield's edge tend to spread, so a replacement is best. Glass specialists also replace chips and cracks in your line of vision.
The chip or crack size: Generally, glass specialists repair chips smaller than 3/8 inches and cracks shorter than three inches.
Age of the impact: The older a crack or chip is, the more difficult it is to repair. When a windshield impact remains unaddressed, dirt and debris build up, making it harder to repair successfully.
When you notice a chip or crack in your windshield, Glass Doctor of Edmonton recommends that you avoid using the vehicle defrost setting to help prevent the impact from increasing in size.
What Are Windshield Repair Benefits?
Glass Doctor of Edmonton has a "repair first" policy. This means that our glass specialists will always opt for repairing your damaged windshield whenever it is a safe, effective choice to restore the architectural strength of your vehicle.
Other reasons that we favour windshield repairs include the following:
Cost savings: It's less expensive to repair a windshield than it is to replace it.
Convenience: Glass Doctor of Edmonton works around your schedule when you need a windshield repair. In most cases, the process takes 60 minutes or less.
Eco-friendly: Most windshields end up in landfills because the glass is difficult to recycle. A repair reduces landfill waste and the demand for raw resources.
Insurance benefits: Some auto policies cover the cost of windshield repairs and waive the deductible. Before contacting our specialists to fix your windshield, talk to your insurance agent to learn if your auto policy offers this benefit. If it does, we'll happily take care of the claim for you.
What Is the Windshield Replacement Process?
A windshield that is in good shape accounts for up to 60% of a vehicle's architectural strength, according to the Auto Glass Safety Council (AGSC). When a windshield repair isn't possible, a glass specialist takes the following steps to restore your vehicle's safety:
Remove the damaged windshield using techniques that won't damage the bonding surface or paint.
Select a windshield that matches the Original Equipment Equivalent's (OEE) quality.
Apply the new windshield using an AGSC-approved adhesive, following the council's steps.
If you have a cracked or chipped windshield, contact Glass Doctor of Edmonton immediately or schedule an appointment online.
