Hazards+to+Your+Windshield—AZ+Has+Them!

When it comes to hazards to your windshield, AZ has them in abundance. Construction vehicles drop gravel in your path, hail storms pound on your vehicle, deer cross the roadway in front of your car, and so much more can damage your windshield. The widely varying temperatures between day and night can quickly make a relatively small crack or chip repair into a full blown replacement job. This is something you can't ignore.

Did you know that after a windshield splits, it takes 40% of the same impact to shatter it than it would if it was solid? Many people drive around with cracked windshields without realizing the risk they're taking.

Other people think that they can do it themselves. "Shade tree" mechanics, though they mean well, really shouldn't be trusted with your auto glass. Mold and mildew from leaks, plus the potential for future breakage due to improper installation, add up in the expense. Besides, why go through all that trouble when your insurance company will pay for certain auto glass professionals?

When choosing between auto glass professionals, you have to be selective. Not all of them offer the same level of quality of service and materials. Prices vary widely, also. Like it or not, you HAVE to shop around for your auto glass needs. This isn't like changing a light bulb.

Ask them questions. Ask if they give free estimates. Ask about their prices. Make sure they're well trained, NGA certified installers. See if they offer free mobile services, and can install at your home or office. Make certain that they use quality materials (ask about OEM glass). Make sure, above all, that they can get the job done right, the first time.

Quality work and materials for your auto glass is something you can't let just anyone take care of. Make sure you find the best in your area.
