A sharp ping, and suddenly it’s there: a distracting new blemish on your windshield. A flying rock or stray road debris has left its mark in the form of a chip or small crack.

That small chip in your auto glass is more than a cosmetic issue; it’s a breach in the structural integrity of your vehicle. The windshield does more than block wind and rain; it’s a key safety component. It supports the roof in a rollover, helps airbags deploy correctly, and is your first line of defense against the elements. When a stone hits the glass, it creates a point of weakness. Temperature changes, road vibrations from just driving, or even washing your car can cause that tiny imperfection to spread into a large crack, often when you least expect it. Once a fissure becomes too long, a simple and affordable repair is no longer an option. A full windshield replacement becomes the only course of action, a far more costly and time-consuming process. Do you want to wait for that to happen?
How do we fix a chipped windshield? Our expert process is meticulous and uses advanced technology to restore the strength and improve the clarity of your damaged glass. It’s a science we have perfected over many years of service. The goal is to create a permanent fix that stops the damage from spreading further.
First, one of our skilled technicians will thoroughly assess the impact point. The damaged area must be spotless and dry for a successful repair. We use special tools to carefully remove any loose glass fragments from the center of the chip. Then, we use a vacuum process to extract any air, moisture, dust, or dirt trapped within the break. This step is critical; any foreign material left inside will compromise the bond of the repair resin. After the preparation is completed, the real work begins.
We mount a special device over the chip. This tool allows our technicians to inject a high-quality, clear liquid acrylic resin into the damaged area under pressure. The resin is forced deep into every tiny fissure and crack associated with the initial impact. This procedure fills the break completely. Once filled, a UV light is used for the curing process, which hardens the resin. In just a few minutes, the substance bonds to the surrounding glass, creating a solid, durable seal. The result is a smooth surface where the chip used to be. The technician will then scrape away any excess with a razor blade and polish the surface to a clean finish. While a small blemish may remain visible, the restoration will be significantly less noticeable and, most importantly, the structural integrity of your windshield is restored. This entire service is often completed in under 30 minutes.
Can your specific chip be fixed? Generally, the answer is yes if the damage is relatively small. There are a few key factors our experts consider during their initial inspection.
It is always better to have a professional from Executive Auto Glass assess the chip as soon as possible. What may seem like a simple issue could be more complex, and only an experienced technician can give you a definitive answer on whether a repair or replacement is your safest option.
In your search for a solution, you have likely come across DIY repair kits available at your local auto parts store. While the low price of a kit can be tempting, it is not a substitute for professional service. There are many reasons why these products often lead to poor results. The resin included in a home kit is of a much lower quality than what professionals use. It may be more prone to yellowing over time and may not provide the same level of strength.
Moreover, the tools provided in a DIY kit are simple plastic applicators. They cannot create the vacuum necessary to clean the break properly or apply the consistent, high pressure needed to inject the resin into every part of the chip. This often leads to air bubbles being trapped inside the repair, which weakens the bond and leaves a more visible, unsatisfactory finish. Without the proper experience, you could even make the damage worse. If a DIY repair fails or is done incorrectly, it often makes a future professional repair impossible, as the improperly cured resin cannot be removed. You could turn a simple fix into a necessary and expensive replacement. Don’t risk your safety to save a few dollars. Let our insured and certified technicians do the job right the first time.
