Need A Windshield Repaired Or Replaced In Asheville, North Carolina?

When severe storms, debris impacts or other accidents damage a windshield, the process of locating a high-quality repair shop can be frustrating. By dialing 1-800-Windshield or filling out the form on this website, you will be immediately directed to a local auto glass repair expert in Asheville.

The windshield is an incredibly important part of the safety system on any vehicle. It provides a barrier for any collision situation and assists in many other functions. The Asheville area is saturated with auto glass shops but the 1-800-Windshield network directs you to a top-rated one that insures satisfaction-guaranteed service. Keep the following in mind when attempting to decide if a windshield needs repair:

  • Safety issues increase the risk of every passenger in the car and every other person in a radius around the vehicle. Be sure to deal with windshield damages before they become hazardous.
  • Windshield damage can grow overnight from weather events. The faster a driver acts on windshield damage the better.
  • Auto glass can be repaired quickly. Technicians are aware that a cracked or damaged windshield is never a planned event and will address it as fast as possible.
  • Our professionals will provide a free consultation and estimate on any work that needs to be done.

How is auto glass constructed to be so impact resistant?

Auto glass is made with a very specific method. Two pieces of glass are fused to a central layer of poly-vinyl laminate. This plastic layer is invisible to the human eye, and the whole material seems to be a single layer of glass. The end product is often called safety glass or laminated glass. When this material is impacted, instead of shattering or breaking like a normal pane of glass, it holds its general form. This means that during an emergency situation the interior of a car is kept completely separate from exterior elements. This significantly reduces risk in the event of a crash. There are more benefits to using safety glass that are often overlooked:

  • Safety glass can break in several stages instead of all at once. This allows a driver to seek repairs and gives extra time to deal with the situation.
  • Laminated glass absorbs up to 97% of all ultraviolet radiation. This can prevent sunburn on long drives and helps to regulate the temperature of the passenger cabin.
  • High frequency noise is dampened by safety glass. The passenger cabin is much less distracting because of this.

What types of damage should I bring to a professional for repair?

When a windshield is damaged it needs to be brought to a professional for analysis. All damage is different and it can be hard to tell what is more severe. The following examples should be taking directly to an auto glass repair shop:

  • Scratched windows are indicators of impacts or weathering events. These can be weak spots that need to be addressed immediately.
  • Chipped glass is often an area that has seen a mild impact and should be brought to a repair shop soon.
  • Cracked windshields are the most severe of damages and can worsen from further weathering. This is an example of a window that is in severe disrepair.

How does 1-800-Windshield help to find a reliable service?

By dialing 1-800-Windshield or filling out the form on this website, you are directed to a local auto glass shop that is part of our national network of professional service providers. The main factor that should be kept in mind is that our network affiliates apply stringent national standards yet are locally-operated small businesses. Consider these features of small business when deciding whether or not to seek windshield repair:

  • Local Businesses know the Asheville area and the common problems that arise there. They are often faster to respond to weather events and other unique situations that cause windshield damage.
  • Small businesses understand that customer recommendations are the best advertisements they could have. They treat every customer with respect and always try their best.
  • Shops based in Asheville will be more familiar with the state insurance laws. This can speed up a transaction process and save both parties money.
