Windshield Repair
While small chips and cracks in your windshield may seem insignificant, they can easily grow and expand due to temperature changes, road vibrations, or other environmental factors. Our windshield repair service is focused on addressing these problems as soon as possible, using nothing but the best in resin-injection technology. The resin fills in the affected area, thus preventing the cracks from spreading and restoring the strength and clarity of the glass.
Windshield Replacement
We provide a professional windshield replacement service with both OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) or high-quality aftermarket glass, which guarantees a perfect fit and optimum visibility. Our highly trained technicians will take out the damaged windshield, prepare the surface, and put in the brand-new glass, all with advanced adhesives for a secure bond. After installation, a final quality check will be performed to guarantee proper sealing and durability, so you can be at ease behind the wheel.
ADAS Recalibration
Advanced vehicles equipped with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) like lane departure warnings, autonomous emergency brake systems, or adaptive cruise control. The systems rely on various cameras and sensors installed on the windshield. If a windshield is replaced, these systems must be recalibrated so as to keep them aligned and functioning properly. Our technicians use some of the most advanced diagnostic equipment in order to realign and recalibrate the ADAS systems so that the safety features rely on them are working correctly and truly help on the road.
Mobile Services
We know your time is precious, and taking your car to a service center for windscreen repairs or replacement may not suit you most of the time. Hence, we provide professional mobile windscreen services that come to your home, office, or anywhere you want. Our mobile technicians carry out chip repairs and complete windshield replacements wherever you need, using the right tools and equipment, with the least disruption to you and in an easily manageable time frame.
Our Process
Step 1. Assessment
The very first step of the whole operation is a windshield assessment. Chips, cracks, and structural integrity are examined to determine whether a repair is sufficient or if a full windshield replacement will be required. In our decision-making process, we take into consideration size, location, and depth of damage, as well as visibility and safety issues in determining the best plan.
Step 2. Repair or Replacement
After assessing the damage, we recommend either a windshield repair or replacement. If repair is necessary, we use advanced resin injection technology to fill the chip or crack, ensuring strength and clarity. If replacement is needed, we use OEM or high-quality aftermarket glass, adhering to safety standards.
Step 3. Quality Check
Prior to the completion of any service, we will perform the inspections to complete our commitment on quality to validate the windshield integrity. For repairs, great emphasis is put on achieving complete sealing of chips or cracks, a smooth surface finish, and structural soundness. For replacements, proper fitting, alignment, and adhesive bonding are checked to ensure maximum safety and longevity. If ADAS is embedded in the vehicle, it will be recalibrated for accuracy.
Step 4. Customer Guidance
When the windshield service is complete, clear instructions for care are dispensed to customers. In this case, they got instructions for how to take care of windshield replacements, curing time of adhesive, no excessive pressure on the glass, and no car washes for at least 24 hours. Also, they would have suggestions for windshield protection like good-quality wiper blades and parking in shaded areas to avoid future damage.
