What does my Insurance policy cover?
Insurance policies typically cover window and windshield replacements either partially or fully, depending on your deductible.

However, it's important to check with your insurance provider to confirm your specific coverage, as policies can vary.
I’ve had my windshield replaced. Now what?
Upon replacement, you will notice two pieces of tape at the top. These can be removed 2-3 hours after replacement unless instructed otherwise. Additionally, please avoid car washes for at least 48 hours to ensure the adhesive sets properly. This precaution helps to prevent any potential issues and ensures the longevity of your new windshield.
What should I do if my windshield has a chip or crack?
It's important to address any damage to your windshield, especially if it's in the driver's line of sight. Ignoring small issues can accelerate the need for a full windshield replacement.
