Q. Will my insurance cover the cost of windshield
replacement?
A. Yes, if you have full comprehensive
coverage.
Your comprehensive deductible is the only out of pocket expense and in
most cases is $0-$100. If your deductible is more than $100 (confirm
with your agent or insurance company it is your comprehensive
deductible and not your collision deductible).
Q. Who will handle billing my insurance?
A. We will handle all paperwork and billing directly with
your
insurance company taking care of the hassle involved so you don't have
to.
Q. Will windshield replacement affect my insurance
rates?
A. No. Windshield replacement falls
under
comprehensive insurance and not collision insurance. Cracks in your
windshield have do not indicate a risk to the insurance company as it
does not reflect your driving ability.
Q. Will my new windshield be the same quality I
have in
my vehicle now?
A. Yes. We use only DOT-Certified auto
glass for
each installation. Additionally, we use the highest quality OEM glass
or high quality after-market glass for individuals or businesses
depending on your budget for the auto glass replacement.
Q. How long will it take to replace my windshield?
A. It will take approximately 1 hour. To
ensure
proper curing for the urethane seal, we recommend you refrain from
driving your vehicle for 2-3 hours. Your technician will provide the
best estimate of a safe drive-away time based on humidity, temperature
and type of urethane and additional conditions and materials used.
Q. Can you replace my windshield or auto glass
when it
is raining or snowing?
A. We require working in a carport,
garage, parking
garage, etc. or any other suitably covered area, in order to provide
mobile auto glass service during inclement weather.
Q. Do you only provide windshield glass?
A. No. We sell and service all auto
glass parts
including doors, vents, back or quarter windows and more.
Q. Why is a cracked or improperly installed
windshield
dangerous?
A. A cracked or improperly installed
windshield can
be a danger to you and your passenger's safety. The windshield
prevents passengers from being ejected during an accident. It is an
important barrier and a cracked or poorly installed windshield can fail
during a collision or roll over allowing passengers to be ejected.
Also, your windshield is a "backstop" for the passenger side air bags.
A cracked windshield lacks the structural integrity necessary to absorb
the force of a deployed airbag. Finally, your windshield supports the
roof. It is designed to prevent the roof from crushing you in a roll
over accident. A cracked windshield may fail to support the roof if the
car flips over, causing severe injury or death to occupants.
