We Offer Quality Windshield Repair and Windshield Replacement at Every Star Auto Glass Location
Windshield glass is unlike all other glass found on your vehicle. Otherwise known as safety glass, it is designed not to shatter but instead to crack, creating a spiderweb of little breaks in the case of an accident instead of large dangerous shards. This happens due to an intensive laminating process in which the glass is specially reinforced with a piece of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) that is sandwiched between two pieces of tempered glass. In fact, this process is the reason that windshields can often be repaired!
Auto Glass Repair
In many cases, a cracked windshield can be repaired without needing a windshield replacement. Star Auto Glass specializes in stone chip repair and other types of windshield repairs, making your life easier when auto glass issues arise. Stone chip repair is the process of sealing the crack with a special resin that imitates the glass itself, so it won’t spread further due to the fluctuation of temperatures. When you see that you have windshield damage, you should make sure to bring it in for a quick repair. It doesn’t matter how small the windshield crack or chip is, they will grow as the weather changes. We’ll make sure that it’s sealed or removed completely before the problem gets any worse.
Windshield Replacement
For one reason or another, sometimes a cracked windshield has gotten to the point that you need a windshield replacement. When windshield repair isn’t an option, Star Auto Glass can provide total windshield replacement. This involves removing and disposing of the damaged windshield, then replacing it with a brand new one. This ensures that no matter the damage to your windshield, your car is ready to go and can pass state inspections. Windshield replacement can be done in the space of a few hours or less, and for your convenience Star Auto Glass carries auto glass for all makes and models.
Think about it this way, auto glass isn’t just important for protecting you and your passengers from the outside elements, but it is essential to the structural integrity of your vehicle itself. That’s why a crack or even just a stone chip can compromise the integrity of your windshield and leave you more vulnerable in the case of an accident!
