Common questions
Can a chip be repaired instead of replacing the windshield?
Sometimes. Size, location, depth, and whether the crack has spread decide it. Damage in the driver's critical view or near edges may need replacement.
Are auto glass installers licensed in Texas?
Texas does not issue a state auto glass installer license. Look for safety-standard training, proper urethane, insurance, and ADAS calibration capability when needed.
What is safe drive-away time?
It is the cure time before the vehicle should be driven. It depends on urethane, temperature, humidity, and vehicle requirements. The installer should tell you before leaving.
Do cameras need recalibration?
Many vehicles with lane assist, collision warning, or camera systems need calibration after windshield replacement. Skipping it can affect safety features.
Can mobile service replace glass at my office?
Usually, if weather, space, and access are safe. Rain, high wind, or tight parking can make mobile installation unsafe.
Will insurance cover the windshield?
It depends on your policy and deductible. The shop can help document the glass type, damage, and replacement scope for the claim.
