Ever get stuck behind a dump truck only to notice debris flying from the back of his vehicle and a sign that reads “Vehicle is not responsible for damages caused by flying objects?” Then notice a small crack in your windshield? It may seem like a tiny problem compared to the slew of other mechanical issues that plague automobiles but don’t hesitate or else small windshield damage could expand compromising the integrity of your entire windshield. Even a small crack can expand tremendously (and quickly) expand leading to a much larger stress crack.

That small scar on your windshield may be unattractive, its also unsafe. An imperfection in your windshield means that the strength of your window to the road is compromised, greatly. Ignoring a small crack could not only lead to the full replacement of your windshield, but also its undesired destruction. The last thing any driver wants (or needs) is a windshield fully collapsing at 75 miles per hour. Spot fixing that small crack can help prevent a full windshield replacement, saving you both time and money. Fully replacing the windshield on your vehicle can prove more damaging to your wallet, than spot fixing that small crack, so it’s important to take care of the small things quickly and professionally. Repairing auto glass cracks not only increases the appearance of your vehicle but also helps you maintain perfect vision of the road ahead.

Auto glass is a very important structural component of your vehicle therefore quality installation is key in order to ensure your safety on the roads. Our spot windshield repairs are quick, less than 30 minutes in most cases and do not require complete removal of the windshield itself. After our mobile glass repair technicians are done you will barely be able to tell where the visually impairing crack was before and others will have no idea it was ever there.

No one car’s components are ever the same, and this is especially true of glass products. There are many different types of glass surfaces for all sorts of cars including,

It is always a tough decision to make when it comes to choosing the correct business for any type of vehicle repair. Choices like this aren’t normal every day choices like what kind of brand of toothpaste to buy (whatever is cheapest, right?) or whether or not we should take the recycling out tonight or wait until tomorrow morning. Of course that’s when we’ll be jolted awake by the sudden realization that the booming sound we hear outside our window is the recycling truck emptying our neighbor’s recycling. Other than giving the neighbors a sore site as we rush out in our civvies to make it just in time, those types of choices don’t effect the longevity of something we need on an every day basis to survive such as our automobiles.

So, when it is time to choose the right auto glass company for repairs or replacements, there are several factors to consider.

1) Do they offer a guaranteed warranty?

2) Do they offer factory-authorized glass from industry-approved sources instead of imports?

3) Do they only apply urethanes that meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS)

4) Have they been in business for a number of years with satisfied clientele?

5) Is there a friendly and knowledgeable staff?

6) Is the environment clean and orderly?

So, what you should you be asking your auto glass company installer? Richmond Hill and Savannah, GA residents should be asking for the following common certifications.

1) AGRSS

This stands for “The Auto Glass Replacement Safety Standards Council”. This council offers an accreditation program for auto glass shops. Registered shops guarantee that they are compliant with the ANSI/AGRSS Standards.

2) ASE

“The National Institute For Automotive Service Excellence” offers an incredibly well-known certification for individual automotive repair technicians. Although it is not suggested that you enlist the services of an individual over a certified auto glass instillation and repair company, it is important that, if deciding upon an individual auto glass technition, they have this certification. To achieve ASE certification, a technician must pass a test and have a minimum of 2 years experience in the specific automotive trade for which they are certified. Make sure that your technician isn’t certified in engine repair instead of auto glass.

3) IGA
The Independent Glass Association offers membership to auto glass companies with less than 100 locations. It also offers a certification program for individual technicians. One must pass a training course and demonstrate basic math skills. Technicians are required to have a minimum of six months’ auto glass installation experience and make at least 50% of their yearly income from auto glass replacement.

4) NGA

The National Glass Association certified individual auto glass installers. This program has two levels: Certified Auto Glass Technician (CAGT) which requires testing plus at least 6 months experience in auto glass installation. The other one is Certified Master Auto Glass Technician (CMAGT) which requires testing in addition to CAGT certification as well as three years of experience as an auto glass technician.
