Don't Wait

Why You Should Repair Chips Quickly

Temperature Changes Spread Cracks

Roseville's hot summers and cold winter mornings cause glass to expand and contract. A small chip can turn into a 12-inch crack overnight after a temperature swing.

Save Money — Repair Costs Less

A $60–$100 chip repair is far cheaper than a $250–$500+ windshield replacement. Most insurance covers chip repair with no deductible, meaning $0 out of pocket.

Protect Your Visibility & Safety

Even a small chip distorts light and creates glare, especially at night and during dawn/dusk driving. A growing crack in your sight line is a serious safety hazard.

Dirt & Moisture Make Repairs Harder

The longer you wait, the more dirt and moisture seep into the chip. Contaminated damage produces a less-clear repair and may eventually become unrepairable.

Windshield Integrity Matters

Your windshield provides up to 30% of your vehicle's structural strength. Damaged glass is weaker in a collision and may not support airbag deployment properly.

CHP Fix-It Tickets

In California, a cracked windshield in the driver's sight line can result in a CHP fix-it ticket under CVC 26710. A quick repair keeps you legal and saves you a trip to the courthouse.

FAQ

Chip Repair Questions

What size chip or crack can be repaired? +
Most chips smaller than a quarter (about 1 inch) and cracks shorter than 6 inches can be successfully repaired. Damage location matters too — chips in the driver's direct line of sight or near the windshield edge may require replacement for safety reasons. We'll assess your damage and give you an honest recommendation.
How much does a chip repair cost? +
Chip repair typically costs $60–$100 per chip for out-of-pocket customers. However, most full-coverage auto insurance policies cover chip repair with zero deductible — meaning it's completely free to you. We handle the insurance billing directly so there's no paperwork on your end.
How long does the repair take? +
A single chip repair takes approximately 15–30 minutes. The process involves injecting clear resin into the damaged area, curing it with UV light, and polishing the surface. You can drive immediately after — no cure time needed.
