Has Your Vehicle Sustained Windshield Damage In New Haven?

If the answer is yes, then in New Haven 1-800-Windshield is the place to go for all of your auto glass repair and glass replacement. When you use us as your window repair center, we will be quick to determine what repairs need to be done. We will give prompt attention to making the repair or replacing the glass if needed. And, we will make sure that all of the auto glass in your vehicle is in perfect repair when you leave our facility.

As we in New Haven know, the area has extensive traffic from the I-95 and I-91 corridors. Also, the resurgence of downtown New Haven, and the work that is being done there has led to many construction vehicles being on our city streets. These two situations have created opportunities for windshield damage to occur frequently. In most cases the damage has been limited to dings, stars, and scratches on our windshields and mirrors, but every once in a while, there has been the complete shattering of a windshield.

If you are in any of these situations, a ding, a star, a scratch, or a complete shatter, you need to have the damage to your auto glass assessed by one of our professional technicians. Using modern technology and materials, many damaged windshields and windows can be repaired rather than having to be replaced. Our technicians will work with you to determine what is the best option for you. If a full replacement is recommended, we can quickly and professionally install a replacement windshield, usually saving you time and money over our competitors.

How do you know that the repairs we suggest are necessary?

• Safety – First, we base our recommendations on providing the safest vehicle possible for you and your family. Any windshield that has been compromised in any way could be a disaster waiting to happen. Those dings and chips need to be repaired before they expand and become major problems. Often times the cost for these repairs is very small, and in many cases, we will work with the insurance company and there may not be any cost to you whatsoever. 
• The Law – The State of Connecticut has laws that cover broken windshields. Any damage that obstructs the view of the driver must be repaired. If the repair falls under the sweep of the windshield wiper, the windshield may have to be replaced. We are obligated to make repairs based on the state law.

Why is the law so specific when it comes to windshield damage?

Our lawmakers know how important the windshield and a vehicle’s other auto glass is to the safety of an automobile and its occupants.

• Structural strength – The automobile is a well-designed machine that integrates all aspect s of the vehicle in order to provide the maximum safety for the occupants. The front windshield, as well as the rear window, are important components of that safety system. If there is a crack in either, the crack diminishes the strength of the window, and the support system for the roof. If a roll-over accident should occur, the compromised window could cause the roof to collapse.
• Visibility – A crack, or damage anywhere in the driver’s field of vision is a distraction for the driver. Often times, a driver’s eyes will wander to that spot, causing the driver to not be focused on the roadway. Also, those small imperfections could spread suddenly and rapidly across the windshield, startling the driver, and causing a major distraction. This would create a potentially deadly scenario.
