Windshield After Repair

IMPORTANT: Each repair is different. The primary purpose of a windshield repair is to prevent the damage from spreading. Some repairs visually improve more than others.

How to Know If Your Windshield is Repairable

Not all chips and cracks are repairable. Here are a few factors that must be considered:

  • Size: Chips smaller than a Toonie or cracks under 8 inches are usually repairable.
  • Location: Damage in front of sensors, cameras or other equipment may not be repairable.
  • Depth: If you can feel the damage on the inside of the windshield, it has penetrated both layers of the glass and a replacement is necessary. 

When in doubt, bring your vehicle to us for a free inspection.

Frequently Asked Questions About Windshield Repair

how to update macos high sierra 10136 to 1015

Will the repair make the damage invisible?

While most repairs considerably improve clarity, the damage will still be visible. The primary goal is to restore strength and prevent further damage. Visual improvement is a secondary benefit.

Can I repair my windshield myself?

DIY kits exist, but it is an absolute myth that they work well. Kits you can buy online are not likely to contain a quality repair resin AND they cannot adequately vacuum out air and apply injection pressure to ensure the chip or crack is completely filled.

Will water, frost, or sunlight ruin my repair if I leave quickly?

No! When you leave the repair has already been fully cured and is solid. In fact, if the sun does do anything, it will cure it even harder since windshield repair resin is UV activated.

Comparing Windshield Repair vs. Replacement

Choosing repair over replacement offers several advantages:

  • Cost Savings: Repairs are far more affordable than full replacements.
  • Time Efficiency: Repairs take less than an hour, compared to the 1+ hour needed for a windshield replacement.
  • Eco-Friendly: Repairing your windshield reduces glass waste.
  • The Con: The only negative of a repair vs. a replacement is that you will still be able to see the damage when it’s done. It shouldn’t spread but you will see it.
