How long is the wait for an appointment? Q. Is windshield repair covered by my insurance company? A. Yes, if you have comprehensive coverage, windshield damage is covered by your plan. It doesn't matter whether the damage was caused by vandalism, road debris or an angry, bat-wielding ex—your only expense will be your deductible. Many people are surprised by how low their deductibles are—often less than $100 for comprehensive (non-collision) repairs. Q. Which insurance companies do you work with? A. Our shops work with almost every auto insurance company in the country. They like these shops because they accommodate each of their individually determined rates and they install only quality auto glass. Q. But I'll have to file a bunch of paperwork with my insurance company, right? A. No way. The local shop will take care of the hassle involved with insurance claims so you don't have to, that's why we're here. The shops can do all required paperwork to bill your insurance company directly. All you need to do is pay the amount of your deductible (if you have one). Q. That's great, but will my insurance rates go up if I file an auto glass claim? A. Not at all. A cracked windshield doesn't reflect your driving ability, so why should it have a bearing on your level of risk to the insurance company? Auto glass replacement falls under the comprehensive portion of your insurance rather than the collision category, so you can get a shiny new windshield and your insurance premiums will stay the same. Q. Where do I need to take my car and how much time should I allow for windshield replacement? A. We're about to make you very happy: You don't have to go anywhere. Most local auto glass pro's will come to you wherever you are—at home, at work or at your in-law's notorious marathon potluck. And the whole process shouldn't take more than an hour, though we highly recommend that you don't drive for 2-3 hours after the installation so that the urethane seal will have plenty of time to cure. Your technician will give you an estimated drive-away time based on weather conditions and materials used. Q. Do I need to be there while you replace my glass? A. Nope. You can go shopping, see a movie, keep working, take a nap-whatever makes you happy. All a capable technician need's is to have your vehicle unlocked when they arrive. Q. What if it's raining or snowing on the day of my appointment? A. A little rain or snow won't slow our shops down—as long as there's a carport, garage or other suitable shelter on site. Otherwise, they'll gladly reschedule your appointment for another time. Q. So, what about quality? I don't want to have to replace my windshield again. A. We can assure you that our participating shops only use high-quality auto glass. Our shops are very confident in the glass they use and back their products with warranties. Each shop is different and may provide different warranties for different products. Ask our auto glass service providers about the warranties provided with their high quality auto glass products! Q. I need my side-door glass replaced. Am I on the wrong website? A. You've come to the right place. Our partner glass professionals sell and service most auto glass parts: door windows, vents, back windows, just about anything that's glass for your vehicle! We will need to talk to you on the phone to make sure we order exactly the right side glass to fit your car. Q. I'm sold. How long is the wait for an appointment? A. A local shop can usually have an auto glass installation expert to your location in 1-2 days, depending on your availability. |
