If you’ve been searching for windshield replacement near you give us a call! We come to your home or office anywhere in the Westchester area. We check the damage and install the right windshield for your car with a seal that holds up for years.

What Goes Into a Quality Windshield Replacement

A good windshield replacement starts with the right glass and every windshield is shaped for a specific vehicle. Many new cars have a camera mount or a rain sensor built in that needs matching to your exact car so it fits and works like the original. Next comes the removal. We’ll cut out the old windshield without scratching the paint or bending the frame and clean the frame down to a fresh surface. We prime any bare metal so rust can’t start under the seal and set the new windshield in a full bead of urethane and pressed flush with the body. That bond holds the glass in place in a crash and keeps out water and wind noise. Last we give the urethane time to cure before you drive. We will explain everything to you because skipping any of these steps is how leaks and loose glass happen.

Signs You Need a New Windshield

Not every chip means a new windshield. Some damage is too big or in the wrong spot to repair safely which is typically a crack longer than a few inches. Unfortunately this as well as damage right in the driver’s line of sight usually needs a full windshield replacement since a windshield repair there can leave a slight blur. Cracks that reach the edge of the glass tend to spread and weaken the whole windshield. Some harder to spot problems are years of pitting from sand and road salt can make night glare hard to see through. A windshield that leaks or whistles at highway speed may have a failing seal and if a chip has already started to spread, don’t wait. When a repair will do the job we’ll tell you and save you the cost of a replacement.

Your windshield is an integral safety part of your car so it matters who installs it. We carry insurance on every job and we stand behind our work. Windshield replacement is easy to rush because the shortcuts don’t show right away. Glass set without enough urethane looks fine on day one but the first heavy rain finds the gap or the wind noise starts on the highway. We don’t work that way. We take the time to prep the frame and let the bond cure to make sure your install last for the long term. If you’re comparing snow removals shops near you make sure whoever you hire carries real insurance. You can also ask if they follow the installation standard published by the Snow Removal Safety Council.
