There are two alternatives to execute when you do discover a small rock chip on your windshield. One is ignoring it till the rock chip grows into a large crack and then replacing your windshield, while the other is opting for a windshield chip repair. Below are listed five reasons why you should choose auto glass repair instead of replacing your windshield.
90 % of windshields are repairable- It has been statistically proven that 90% of windshield rock chips are repairable. Rarely does it happen that a windshield is damaged beyond repair. All the same, most of us, frustrated with the vision hindrance in our auto glass tend to go in for the expensive auto glass replacement option rather than consider windshield chip repair. Our windshield chip repair technology allows consumers to rid the auto glass of the vision hindrance and also helps to contain the chip so that it does not develop into a major crack. Needless to say, the repair option emerges as the better choice. So why replace, when it can be repaired.
No water leaks – For those who do go in for an auto glass replacement, water leaks are a common problem. Windshield chip repair allows you to save the original factory seal of your windshield. This seal was installed in climate controlled conditions and is designed to help provide air bag and roof support in the event of an accident. Water leaks are definitely one of the most annoying problems of an auto glass replacement. Windshield chip repair on the other hand, does not involve messing with the setting of the auto glass and therefore avoids the problem of water leaks completely.
Safety – Windshield chip repair is a safe way to prevent the windshield from further damage. Not only is one able to repair the crack or rock chip, but also prevent it from growing extensively and shattering during a drive. If you have a chip on your auto glass, do not ignore it. Even in the case of a minor collision your glass could shatter completely since the chip tends to weaken the glass tremendously.
Eco friendly – Windshield chip repair is an eco friendly method as opposed to windshield glass replacement. Windshields cannot be recycled and add to the permanent landfill and waste on the planet.
