Call an auto glass company first, not your insurance company
You are able to choose a repair shop. Choosing a reputable one such as Able Auto Glass, one that meets Auto Glass Replacement Safety Standards Council standards, will insure the job is done correctly. Also, you want to make sure that the materials used are OEM quality, not second rate glass or adhesive.
Know your auto glass coverage and deductibles
Once you have called a windshield repair company, compare the cost of the repair/replacement with the size of your comprehensive deductible. You may find that even though your insurance policy has glass coverage, you may have a deductible. If the windshield replacement is $280 and you have a $250 deductible, do you really want to file a claim for $30?
Beware of scams
If an unsolicited person approaches you in a parking lot, or at your doorstep and tells you they can fix your windshield, this could be a scam. This is a large red flag. Many times, the repair person says you really need to replace the whole windshield for a simple chip, you may have some bells in your head going off. It is best to just refuse the offer and seek a local company.
When your windshield gets chipped or cracked, you need to take action, since a damaged windshield can affect your driving.
