FAQ
Will a repaired chip be invisible?
No. A good repair stops the damage spreading and puts the strength back; you will still see a faint mark if you look for it. That is why position decides so much. In the driver's eyeline, plenty of shops will suggest replacement instead of a fill.
What should I ask before booking?
Which glass they are fitting, whether mouldings and clips are new, what the safe drive-away time is, whether your car needs camera calibration, and whether they do it in house or send it out. Get the calibration answer written on the quote rather than agreed on the phone.
Can I drive with a cracked windshield?
It depends on your state and where the crack sits, and a crack across the wiper sweep in front of the driver is the one that draws attention. It matters mechanically too: the glass is bonded structure that helps hold the roof up and gives the passenger airbag something to push against.
Which shops in Gainesville quote without charging?
[N_FREE] of the 24 shops here quote without charging. Ask for the calibration line in that quote, not only the glass and the labor, because that is the part that turns a cheap number into the real one once the car is on the lift.
