Our Windshield Repair Process
At R & D Auto Glass, we begin by assessing the extent of the damage to your windshield. Small chips and cracks can often be repaired without needing a full replacement. Here’s a step-by-step look at our repair process:
- Assessment: We carefully examine the size, depth, and location of the damage to determine whether repair or replacement is the best option.
- Preparation: The damaged area is cleaned and prepped for the repair process, ensuring a clear and durable finish.
- Resin Injection: A special resin is injected into the chip or crack, which is then cured and polished to restore the windshield’s integrity and appearance.
- Final Inspection: After the repair is complete, we inspect the windshield to ensure that it meets our high standards for safety and quality.
If the damage is too severe for a repair, we’ll recommend a full windshield replacement. Our team will guide you through the process and handle everything from removal to installation, ensuring your new windshield is fitted perfectly and securely.
