It is tempting to ignore those small rock chips and tiny cracks in your windshield. You may think it will be too much of a hassle to fix it, or too expensive. However, it is important to have a safe and clear view while driving and to maintain the structural integrity of your vehicle. There are experts in auto glass repair in St. Louis ready to make your windshield look like new again. When Should You Repair Your Windshield? If you have minor chips that are smaller than a quarter in size and not in the line of vision of the driver, then those can be repaired and the integrity of your windshield will remain intact. If there are 3 or fewer chips, they can be repaired instead of replacing your whole windshield. When Should You Replace Your Windshield? If small chips have turned into larger cracks, and if the chips and cracks are in the driver's field of vision, or if there are more than 3 chips or cracks, then the windshield will need to be completely replaced. Also, if the chips or cracks are near the edge, the structure of the windshield will be compromised and you will need a new windshield. Your windshield is an important safety feature of your vehicle. It helps support the roof and helps the air bags deploy properly. In the event of a rollover car accident, the windshield helps protect you and your loved ones. If a windshield isn't installed properly it will eject upon impact and leave you and you and all the passengers in your car exposed and vulnerable and more likely to be ejected from the vehicle. Make sure you are getting a company that makes sure your windshield is properly installed and sealed safely so that you and your loved ones will be better protected. Will Insurance Cover Replacements and Repairs? Insurance companies vary, but most will waive the deductible fee to fix minor chips before they get worse. It is in their best interest to prevent them from having to replace your entire windshield. The auto glass repair company will handle all the hassle with any insurance claims if they are necessary. How Long Will You Be Inconvenienced? It doesn't take auto glass professionals long at all to repair minor chips or cracks. Most auto glass repair companies have mobile options where they will come to your home or your workplace to fix your windshield or windows for you. If you need to have your whole windshield replaced, you will be able to safely drive your car an hour after the new windshield is installed. Be Sure to Fix the Windows and Rear Windshield, Too Just because the chip or crack isn't on your front windshield doesn't mean you can ignore it. Your windows and rear windshield are extremely important as well, and should have a clear view while driving. Also, the chips and cracks could let in moisture that will damage the interior of your vehicle. Take the initiative of replacing or repairing any damaged auto glass in your car. Use a Company That Specializes in All Types of Glass You know you are in good hands with a company that uses all kinds of glass for sliding doors, showers, windows for residential homes, and more. These companies know glass intimately and can do the most professional job on your car. There is more to consider when shopping for auto glass than just price. You want safety and good customer service as well. Choosing a family-owned business can be a great way to go. Don't let chips and cracks ruin your view while driving. You’ll drive safer after auto glass repair in St Louis while protecting yourself, your family, your friends, and other drivers on the road.
