Mobile Glass Repair Service in Neffs Pennsylvania

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I learn if auto glass damage may possibly be repaired?
This depends on the type of crack or chip. The most reliable solution is to call us and we will inspect the damage. We'll let you know if it is a repair that could be made or if you are dealing with a windshield replacement. In either event, we'll collaborate with you and your insurance company.

Q: Precisely what is the difference between OEM and OEE auto glass? Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) glass is fabricated by the same manufacturer as your original glass. Original Equipment Equivalent (OEE) glass is built to the same criteria but by a different corporation. Our customers can choose either.

Q: Does my vehicle have to be in an enclosed or heated location?
Harsh weather makes auto glass installs problematic without cover. In these conditions, please have your vehicle in a protected area.

Q: Will any part of my vehicle be harmed during the repair or replacement process?
No, your vehicle should not be damaged during the repair or replacement. We use precautionary measures, such as protective drapes, to ensure that no damage occurs during your auto glass service.

Q: After the repair is completed, how will my windshield look?
Your rock chip should become significantly clearer when fixed. But, clarity depends on the size, age, the amount of glass missing from the center, and the amount of fragmented glass within the break. Whenever looking through the windshield, vision will not be impaired.

Q: Does a chipped windshield need to be repaired or replaced?
Repair versus replacement depends on the size, location, and degree of the damages. Most of the time, damage can possibly be repaired if the chip is a quarter-size or less, affects only the outer layer of the windshield, and does not appear directly in the driver's view. However, every case is one-of-a-kind. Regardless, a damaged windshield should be evaluated immediately.

Q: Can I get my windshield repaired if my auto insurance does not have glass coverage?
Yes. If your auto insurance coverage does not contain auto glass coverage, then you can simply pay us directly for your glass repair service or installation. Our services are very competitively priced and we accept cash, checks, and credit cards to make payment as easy and convenient as possible.

Q: What kind of parts do you use for your glass services?
We use the finest quality glass, moulding, urethanes, and other installment materials to maintain and reinforce the safety elements of your windshield.

Q: Are your technicians certified?
Each of our repair professionals is factory trained by SIKA Corporation. SIKA is a leader with regards to the Auto Glass Replacement (AGR) direct glazing niche. All SIKA Auto Glass adhesive systems have been crash tested and meet or exceed rigorous Federal safety standards (FMVSS 212/208). SIKA Training guarantees the proper application of the entire SIKA Adhesive System, which is essential to the safe installation of the new glass in your motor vehicle.

Q: How quickly can I wash my automobile after my windshield is removed and replaced?
You can hand wash your motor vehicle as long as you keep high-pressure sprays of water well away from the windshield and moldings. Water or rain on the new windshield installation isn't a problem at all, actually, the wetness actually helps the curing process of the urethane adhesive sealant. You should wait a minimum of 24 hours before washing your vehicle in a high-pressure type of car or truck wash. A high-pressure automated car wash can weaken the new windshield seal and outer moldings before the urethane adhesive used in the new windshield installation has an opportunity to completely cure. It's also vital to leave at least one of the windows open a minimum of 2 inches to reduce the pressurization in the vehicle when the doors are shut and when the heat or a/c is operated within the first 24 hours. Having a window slightly open prevents the pressure build-up from ambient heat on a hot day and the pressure the heater or air conditioner builds up inside the vehicle's cabin from pushing a hole through the new uncured urethane seal, triggering an air or water leak.

Q: After I have my windshield replaced, how do I know if it was done right?
You don't! Without removing the auto glass, it's impossible to tell if the windshield was prepped adequately if critical primers and proper flash times were used, as well as if the proper amount and type of urethane was utilized. Once a windshield is installed all the vital installation groundwork steps are hidden under the moldings and black ceramic band. If it appears to be a clean windshield, back glass, or another sort of auto glass installation and the moldings are lying properly you can only presume it was done right and in truth those things are only cosmetic, it's what is underneath and when and how it was done during the replacement installation process that counts. The only sure way to tell if a windshield or other type of auto glass is correctly installed is to crash test it, but we sure don't recommend it.

Q: Can you replace the other auto glass on my vehicle?
Yes, we can replace the door glass, vents, back glass, quarter glass.
