Is Your Windshield In Need of Repair In Chesapeake, Virginia?

If you have a broken windshield in Chesapeake, then you should call 1-800-Windshield.  We provide high quality auto glass repair and replacement at competitive prices. Damage to windshields happen all the time. You could be driving down the Chesapeake Expressway when the car in front of you flings a rock from the road into the air, and it takes a chip our of your auto glass.  You could be stopped at a light on US 13 when you get side swiped by another vehicle causing the glass on your passenger window to shatter. You could even be parked in your own driveway when a windstorm forces a lid of a galvinized trash right into your windshield. No matter the cause, you need windshield repair and we are the service to call.

Why does fixing your broken windshield matter?

Broken Windshields can cause a number of problems, including:

  • Further Vehicle Damage. Driving puts a strain on auto glass, a strain which is compounded by the often harsh environmental conditions found in Chesapeake.  Although auto glass is designed to take this strain, damage reduces its resilience.  Small chips and cracks have a strong tendency to grow, rapidly changing from a minor issue to a major problem.  Additionally, windshields protect the interior of vehicles from rain, snow, heat, cold, dust, and other natural factors.  Without this protection, consoles, sound systems, seating, steering wheels, and other interior components can degrade to the point where they must be replaced.  Perhaps most seriously, broken windshields can impair the vision of the driver, increasing the odds of accidental collisions.  These collisions can cause damage to the entire vehicle, even permanently totaling it.
  • Placing Drivers and Passengers at Risk of Injury. Damaged windshields place vehicle occupants at risk of a number of physical injuries.  Windshields protect us from airborne debris. At the speeds at which modern vehicles travel, even very small particles colliding with a body can cause substantial injuries such as cuts, bruising, broken bones, and blindness.  Damaged windshields can also lead to life threatening injuries.  Because drivers often have a difficult time seeing around cracks and chips, they are more likely to be involved in an accident. 

What type of repair do I need?

  • Repair. It is always preferable to repair auto glass if possible.  This is because repair is both cheaper and quicker than replacement.  Repair is most likely where there is a small chip or scratch in a region of the windshield out of the driver’s direct view of the road.  To repair automotive glass, special tools and adhesives are used.  The goal of repair is to seal the damage that already exists and to prevent the damage from growing.
  • Replacement. Unfortunately, some windshield damage is too severe to be repaired.  In other cases, damage that is repairable in and of itself cannot be fixed without leaving the driver unable to clearly see the road.  When this is the case, full replacement is the only option.  To replace a windshield, all existing auto glass must be removed and replaced with new material.  Depending on the vehicle and the available parts, you may have options as to what you replace the glass with.

How much will it cost to repair or replace my auto glass?

It is impossible to say without knowing your specific circumstances.  Repairs are generally cheaper, often costing less than $100 for isolated small chips and scratches.  Replacements usually cost more, but the amount can vary wildly.  The cost of replacement parts is dramatically different for different vehicles, as is the amount of labor required to replace them.  For some common cars, windshield replacement can cost as little as $225.  For some rare or large vehicles, this cost may be more than $1500.
