When a windshield is broken, the first problem that arises is whether the damage needs a repair or a new installation. The answer to this question depends on several factors. It is the job of the technician to review the extent of damage and then find out the most ideal solution.
Generally, if the chip is smaller than a coin, the windshield can be fixed with a repair. If the chip is larger, a complete replacement of the auto glass will be required. However, you should allow the technician to perform a close examination and then determine what will be the best fix. Many times, even small damage will require a replacement simply because it is located in the driver’s line of sight. At Magic Glass Repair, we strictly adhere to a “Repair First” policy so that the damage can be fixed quickly and you can get back on the road in minutes. Our technicians will never replace the entire auto glass if the solution is a repaired.
