The Process of Mobile Auto Glass Repair Services

One of the most annoying things to happen is damage to our windshield. It proposes all kinds of problems, not to mention the longer a chip sits without repair, the larger it’s going to get, which can push you past the option of repair and right into a windshield replacement. 

Mobile auto glass repair services involve a series of steps, which we listed below. They involve technicians, injections, and a slew of other things. So let’s get started. 

1. Contacting a Professional

The first step, when you discover that your windshield is damaged, is to contact a professional auto glass service. Repairing chips and cracks in your windshield is something you should do right away. Otherwise, you risk allowing the damage to spread, which might require a full windshield replacement. 

2. Assessment

When speaking with the professional mobile auto glass service, they may ask some questions like the size, shape, and location of the damage as well as the make and model of your vehicle. They will want to be sure your windshield damage can be repaired or if it needs a replacement. 

3. Schedule a Time

Once they have all the information they need, the mobile auto glass service will schedule a time that is convenient to you at the location you choose. This offers you flexibility and convenience. 

4. Arrival

When your appointment arrives the technician will come out to your location with the necessary tools and equipment to repair your windshield. If you need a repair, the tech will bring the right supplies. And, if you need a replacement, they will bring the new windshield with them.

5. Preparation

First, the technician will want to assess the damage to make sure that they were correct with their original assessment. If the windshield is being repaired, the technician will clean the area that has been damaged. If your windshield is being replaced, the technician will carefully remove the old windshield. Then they will clean the area thoroughly to ensure a proper bond for the resin or adhesive. 

6. Windshield Repair or Replacement

To repair, the technician will inject the damage with a specific resin. Then they will cure it with a UV light until the resin solidifies. Then they will scrape and polish the area until it shines. For replacement, the tech will do much more. They will remove the old windshield, prepare the frame, apply adhesive, and place the new glass. This is a longer process. 

7. Clean Up

Once your windshield is repaired or replaced, the technician will clean the windshield and area they’re working. They’ll remove any debris and will dispose of the old windshield if you had it replaced. 

8. Final Inspection

The tech will double-check the repair work to be sure their work meets safety standards. If they replaced your windshield, they will check the adhesive to be sure it is bonding well with the new windshield. This is the point where they will discuss any warranty or guarantees with you.
