Poorly maintained roads and bad weather can wreak havoc on your car’s windows. Whether you have experienced a small chip or major crack, we can fix your car’s glass and get you back on the road with minimal delay. At Car Glass Wizards, we service all types of windows and vehicles in Piedmont, AL, and whether your windshield has been shattered or your side window has a small chip, Car Glass Wizards will be glad to assist you.
We inspect your car’s glass for cracks and chips that can occur on the inside or outside of your vehicle. Many times, a rock chip, also referred to as a bullseye or a star, can be easily fixed. However, major cracks will often require the window to be replaced. We also inspect your windows for what is referred to as micro-pits. These tiny pits are caused by particles that contact your vehicle’s glass while you drive. Although you may not notice them, these micro-pits can accumulate over time and result in a dangerous reduction in your ability to see when oncoming headlights brighten your windshield. To keep you safe, if your windshield suffers from micro-pits, we will recommend it be replaced.
We also conduct a thorough inspection of all of the edges that surround each window to determine if any damage has occurred to the bodywork surrounding the glass. This extra level of inspection is important as any issues that might be revealed can actually damage the seal, which can lead to leaks. Finally, we inspect your windshield’s wiper blades to ensure they are pliable and soft. Wiper blades can become brittle over time and eventually break. A broken wiper blade can result in the metal arm scratching your windshield.
In terms of cleaning, we use non-ammonia cleaners because traditional cleaning products that contain ammonia can cause damage to upholstery as well as to the dash. Ammonia-based cleaning products can also wreak havoc on windows that contain tint layers of film. We also utilize soft cloths, which safely remove dirt without scratching the glass.
At Car Glass Wizards in Piedmont, AL, we utilize the latest technology to ensure that damage to your windshield, side windows, or rear window is addressed safely and permanently. Additionally, you can be sure that your car’s glass will receive state-of-the-art repair or replacement.
To determine if your vehicle’s glass can be repaired or will need to be replaced, we first look at the location and size of the damage. For instance, if the glass has suffered a chip that is no bigger than a quarter, it is typically repairable.
Similarly, cracks that measure under a few inches can usually be fixed without the need to replace the windshield or window. However, if the damage has occurred in the driver’s line of sight, even if the damage is small, your windshield might need to be replaced. A replacement might be recommended in this situation, as a repair can result in a distortion that can impair visibility, resulting in an unsafe driving situation.
If your windshield has a crack that has contact with an edge, we will most likely recommend replacing the windshield. Cracks that come into contact with the edge of a windshield tend to spread fast and extremely easily, which makes repairing this specific type of crack difficult and most likely ineffective. Fortunately, most insurance companies cover windshield replacement under the comprehensive portion of their policies.
The most common auto glass services in Piedmont, AL include:
Auto glass can become compromised for many reasons. Often, it is just dirt and debris kicked up from driving down the road hitting your glass.
Pebbles and gravel thrown from other vehicles can cause tiny chips, star cracks, or occasionally larger breaks. Stress can cause cracks to grow wider or multiply.
Impacts from bad weather such as hail storms are one possible source of these types of issues. And, of course, collisions and accidents are capable of causing major cracks, shatters, or breaking seals between the glass and the frame.
Highly recommended: outstanding service, very friendly and great work. My Mustang was in the best hands. Thank you.
Very well organized, uncomplicated and very nice staff. Can only recommend it.
I had a crack in a side window. So I called and got an appointment to drop my car off the same afternoon. I was able to pick it up the very next day. I would go there again and again to get my car fixed.
