The mobile windshield replacement process begins with scheduling an appointment, either online or by phone. Once the appointment is confirmed, a technician will arrive at your location with all the necessary tools and materials. The old windshield will be removed, the frame will be cleaned and prepped, and the new windshield will be installed using high-quality adhesive. The technician will then clean up the area and provide any necessary follow-up instructions.

The on-site service time for a mobile windshield replacement typically takes about 30-45 minutes. However, it’s important to allow additional time for the adhesive to cure properly, which may require you to wait a few hours or even up to 24 hours before driving your vehicle.

We use high-quality windshields, including OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) and aftermarket options, depending on the customer’s preference and budget. Our technicians also use industry-standard adhesives to ensure a strong and safe bond between the windshield and the vehicle frame.

It’s quite common for a window regulator to stop functioning after a window break-in leads to the window being smashed. The window’s shattering often leads to the regulator collapsing within the door. This collapse subsequently loosens the tension in the cables, which in turn causes the window regulator to fail in raising and lowering the window.

The technician will make every effort to remove as much glass as possible, but complete removal is challenging due to the reinforcements inside the door. However, small glass fragments may gradually work their way out through the drain holes located at the bottom of each door. Additionally, we highly recommend visiting a car wash and utilizing a commercial vacuum to thoroughly extract any remaining glass from the carpet. Please note that our technicians are equipped with small travel vacuums, which may not be as effective for this task.

The cost of mobile windshield replacement services varies depending on factors such as the make and model of your vehicle, the type of windshield required, and your location. Some surrounding areas may incur a small additional trip charge. We accept cash, insurance referrals, all major debit and credit cards, and all major digital payment methods. No personal checks, no money orders, no cashier’s checks are accepted.

It is quite common to experience a wind noise or perceive an air leak after a new windshield installation. This usually occurs due to the aftercare blue tape applied to the top of the windshield. As you drive, the edge of this tape may lift and vibrate in the wind, creating a sound similar to an air leak. This tape can safely be removed 24 hours after the installation. Once removed, the wind noise should cease.
