Do You Have A Broken Windshield In Trenton, New Jersey?

Windshield damage puts you and your family at risk of financial loss and injury.  When you drive with broken auto glass, you are endangering your own safety as well as your passengers and others on the road. So if your windshield needs repair or replacement in Trenton, don’t wait.  Call 1-800-Windshield Today.

Life in Trenton can be rough on windshields.  Anything which strikes auto glass with sufficient force can cause damage.  Garbage from a waste management truck on County Route 583 could fly into your windshield, leaving chips behind.  A motorist talking on the phone on US-1 could rear end you, shattering all the glass in your vehicle.  You could even be watching a re-enactment of the Second Battle of Trenton when a stray musket ball shoots through the front windshield of your car.  No matter how your auto glass was damaged, 1-800-Windshield can help.  

Why should windshield damage be a priority?

Windshields perform a number of important functions and normally perform them very well.  Once damaged, however, windshields may no longer function as well or at all.  Among the potential problems that windshield damage can cause are:

  • Expanding and worsening windshield damage over time
  • Allowing natural forces to enter and damage the vehicle’s interior
  • Allowing airborne debris to hit vehicle occupants
  • Allowing natural forces to come into contact with vehicle occupants
  • Preventing the driver from having a clear view of the road
  • Increasing the risk of accidental collisions
  • Increasing the risk of physical injury
  • Increasing the risk of financial loss
  • Frustration and irritation

How is auto glass repaired?

The exact method for fixing a windshield is determined by the features of each individual case of auto glass damage.  Most methods will fall into one of two categories.

  • Repair. In many cases, chemical adhesives can be applied to windshields in order to repair them.  These chemicals attach to the damaged glass and bind it together.  This process not only halts the spread of the damage, but also seals the glass.  Repair usually leaves the damaged area with less clarity than was present prior to the damage.
  • Replacement. When adhesives or other repair methods will not work on the damaged area, full auto glass replacement is necessary.  This process involves removing all existing glass and installing a new windshield.

Do I need to replace my windshield or can I repair it? 

That question is impossible to answer without examining your vehicle.  A number of factors influence the necessary repairs, including:

  • Type of Damage. Damage which extends all the way through the glass is less likely to be repairable than damage which only goes part of the way.  This means that chips and scratches are more likely to be repairable than cracks.  When part of the auto glass is missing, the windshield is never salvageable and must be replaced.
  • Size and Extent of the Damage. The larger the area that the damage covers, the less likely it is to be repairable.  Damage which is limited to one or a few areas is more likely to warrant repairs than damage which is distributed over a number of distinct area.
  • Location of the Damage. If the damage is located out of the driver’s direct line-of-sight of the road, it is safer to repair.  Damage which blocks a driver from seeing ahead may necessitate a full replacement, even if it would otherwise be repairable.
  • Cost of Repair. Repair with adhesives is almost always substantially less expensive than full windshield replacement.  Although actual costs can vary tremendously, repair usually runs somewhere between $30 and $200, while replacement can run between $200 and $1,500 or more.  This means that where repair is possible, it is generally preferable.  Insurance companies may also influence cost, as many policies partially or completely pay for windshield repair and replacement.
