Need A Windshield Replaced In Corpus Christi, Texas?
Broken windshields are a major issue for drivers in Corpus Christi, putting their vehicles, themselves and their passengers at risk. Fortunately, 1-800-Windshield is here to meet all of your auto glass repair and replacement needs. We understand the risks of driving with damaged auto glass and we can provide various repair and replacement options to get you back on the road safely.
Corpus Christi can be hard on windshields. Gravel from dirt roads can scratch and chip glass and motor vehicle collisions can shatter windshields. Even hurricane winds can blow all manner of debris from trees to trash straight through the front of a car. Regardless of how a vehicle has sustained damage, 1-800-Windshield can help owners with any type of auto glass damage.
What is 1-800-Windshield?
We are a national association of independently owned and operated auto glass repair facilities. Our members are located throughout the United States, including Corpus Christi. We select only the highest quality facilities to be members of our organization. In fact, only a single member may join 1-800-Windshield per county, which excludes more than 90% of windshield repair providers in the United States.
What auto glass repair services do we provide?
Our members offer the full range of auto glass services, including:
- Evaluation. Not all windshield damage is the same, which means that what is necessary to repair one windshield may either too much or insufficient to repair another. Our expert technicians have years of experience with all forms of auto glass damage and will be able to tell you exactly what is wrong and what must be done to fix it. When deciding on the best solution, we take into account factors such as feasibility, safety, cost, and Corpus Christi-specific factors such as heat and humidity.
- Estimation. Windshield repair is highly variable. One job might be fixable by one man in under an hour, while another could take a whole team several hours. Different repairs also require very different parts, which will vary the cost of the repair or replacement task. Although it is impossible to give a perfect estimate before a job is completed, our members strive to produce the most accurate estimates possible. We only proceed with work upon your approval.
- Repair. 1-800-Windshield professionals prefer to repair a windshield rather than replace it. Repair is almost always less costly and faster than replacement. Many small scratches and chips are repairable through the application of adhesive chemicals. These chemicals bond to the glass and hold it in place, preventing the damage from spreading in the process. Although this method doesn’t technically remove the damage, it does save the windshield from replacement and the customer from spending more than necessary. Unfortunately, adhesives generally do not restore full visibility to the driver.
- Replacement. Although preferable, repair is not always possible. Damage which is too large cannot be repaired. Cracks which have gone all the way through the glass compromise its integrity and can create major safety issues. Damage which is located in the driver’s direct-line-of-sight may permanently reduce visibility even if repaired. In such cases, windshield replacement is necessary. Depending upon the make and model of your vehicle and the availability of parts, you may have options in choice of replacement material, which can impact cost.
How much will it cost to repair or replace my windshield?
That is impossible to answer without first examining your vehicle, because there are so many factors involved. Normally, repair costs range between $30 and $200, and replacement costs range between $200 and $1,500. However, the actual cost to you may be higher or lower.
Why is it necessary to fix auto glass damage quickly?
Broken auto glass is problematic for a number of reasons. Windshields protect us and our vehicles from natural elements such as rain and windborne objects such as rocks. Broken windshields are also difficult to see out of and therefore make it harder to drive safely. Some of the more common and serious negative consequences of broken auto glass include:
- Damage to vehicle interiors from windborne debris
- Injuries to vehicle occupants from windborne debris
- Damage to vehicle interiors from natural elements
- Irritation to vehicle occupants from natural elements
- Damage to all parts of vehicles from accidental collisions
- Injuries to vehicle occupants from accidental collisions
- Major financial loss as a result of any of the above consequences
- Emotional hardship and stress as a result of any of the above consequences
