Rock Chip Repair
When the damage to your windshield is smaller than a quarter, such as a rock chip or star, it is possible to have it professionally repaired instead of replacing the entire windshield. It is important to address these issues promptly, as they are easier to repair when they are fresh. Over time, dirt can accumulate in the crack due to rain and wind, making it more difficult to seal and repair. To prevent further damage, we recommend keeping a roll of clear tape in your vehicle. This way, you can quickly cover any chips until our skilled technicians can repair them for you. Using a vacuum process, our experts will inject a special polymer into the damaged area, ensuring the best results for your windshield repair. When you've got a crack, Platinum Auto Glass has your back.
Windshield Chip Repair:
Small chips or cracks in the windshield caused by rocks or debris can be repaired using specialized resin injection techniques. Timely chip repair prevents the damage from spreading and restores structural integrity.
A good rule of thumb in determining whether you can safely repair your windshield:
- The crack is smaller than a credit card
- The crack is not in the driver’s line of sight
- The crack does not go all the way through the glass
If the above is not true, you will need to get a quote for the replacement of the windshield.
