Windshield Repairs
No one can predict when the windshield in your vehicle will suffer damage from weather, debris, or even vandalism. When these events do occur, it's nice to know that you may be able to save hundreds of dollars with a windshield repair (when compared to the price of a replacement). Our windshield repairs can be done in-shop or at a location of your choice including Lexington, Columbia, and anywhere else in ourservice area (if weather permits). Contact us today and schedule an appointment.
How Long Do Windshield Repairs Take?
The average windshield repair can be completed in less than an hour, which includes curing time. The curing time can fluctuate due to weather and temperature, so be sure to ask your windshield repair technician how much time you should let the repair cure before driving to allow for a quality repair.
How Does The Windshield Repair Process Work?
If the damage to your windshield can be repaired, our technician will start by cleaning the damaged area and vacuuming out debris. After the area is cleaned, we will inject a special resin into the chip or crack to "fill" the damaged area. This resin is then subjected to ultraviolet light which causes it to cure, or bond to the rest of your windshield. After the curing process is complete, the excess resin is cleared away from the glass. The windshield's strength has now been restored and the visible damage drastically reduced (sometimes even invisible to the naked eye).
