Factory Specification Materials Only

We install OEM glass and factory equivalent automotive glass that matches your vehicle manufacturer's exact specifications.

Our installations utilize DuPont BETASEAL™ advanced cure adhesives, the same glass adhesive systems used in factory assembly plants.

Modern vehicles equipped with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems require precise recalibration after windshield replacement. Forward-facing cameras mounted behind your windshield control lane departure warnings, automatic emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control. We recalibrate these systems using manufacturer-specified targets and alignment procedures, ensuring your safety features function accurately.

Our technicians complete ongoing windshield repair training and stay current on safety inspection protocols for all vehicle makes and models.

Types of Windshield Damage We Repair for Irvine Drivers

We fix various types of windshield chips and cracks using specialized techniques:

1
Bull's Eye Chips

Circular damage with a dark center, caused by round objects. Resin injection can repair these if caught early. Larger chips may require a full replacement.

2
Star Breaks

Multiple cracks radiating from one point, resembling a starburst. Repairing these within 48 hours prevents further damage. If the cracks exceed 3 inches, replacement is often needed.

3
Combination Breaks

A mix of bull's eye and star patterns. Our technicians assess the damage's depth, size, and location to determine if repair or replacement is necessary.

4
Edge Cracks

Cracks within 2 inches of the windshield’s edge. These affect the structural integrity and often require replacement if longer than 6 inches.

5
Stress Cracks

Cracks without impact points, caused by temperature changes or frame pressure. These require full windshield replacement and frame inspection.

6
Surface Pits

Small divots from road debris. They don’t pose immediate danger but can reduce visibility. Severe pitting may need replacement, while minor cases can be polished.

Our Windshield Chip and Crack Repair Process

At Irvine Auto Glass Repair, we quickly address small chips to prevent them from spreading. Our expert repair process halts damage progression and restores windshield strength.


Damage Assessment

Our technician evaluates if the damage is repairable. Chips smaller than a quarter, outside the driver's view, and without penetration of both glass layers can be repaired. Cracks over three inches or multi-impact damage require replacement.

Surface Preparation

We clean the area to remove dirt, moisture, and loose glass. A vacuum removes air pockets to create ideal conditions for resin bonding.

Resin Injection

Automotive grade resin is injected into the chip under controlled pressure. It fills fractures and displaces air and moisture, ensuring complete penetration without stressing the glass.

Curing and Hardening

UV light hardens the resin, restoring up to 95% of the windshield's strength. The process takes 30-45 minutes, leaving the repair invisible and preventing further damage.

Final Inspection

We check for structural integrity, optical clarity, and air pocket elimination. The windshield’s strength is restored to support airbag deployment and cabin integrity.

Can My Windshield Be Fixed, or Do I Need to Replace It?

Not all windshield damage can be repaired. Chips smaller than a quarter or cracks under three inches can typically be fixed. However, damage in the driver’s line of sight or within two inches of the windshield edge often requires replacement. Chips over sensors or cameras, as well as cracks that penetrate both layers of glass, cannot be repaired and need new glass installation.

The age and condition of the damage also affect repairability. Fresh chips can usually be repaired, but older damage with dirt, moisture, or debris embedded may prevent proper resin bonding. Our technicians provide clear assessments and will recommend replacement if it’s the safer and more effective option for your safety.

Frequently Asked Questions

?
How much does a windshield hairline crack cost to repair?

The cost to repair a hairline crack typically ranges from $50 to $150, depending on the size and location. It’s often a more affordable option than replacing the entire windshield.

?
Can I choose my own windshield repair shop?

Yes, you are free to choose any reputable repair shop for your windshield repair. However, check with your insurance company to ensure they accept your preferred shop.

?
How long can you wait to fix a cracked windshield?

It's best to fix a cracked windshield as soon as possible to prevent the crack from spreading. Delaying repairs could lead to higher costs and the need for full replacement.

?
Can I stop a windshield crack from spreading?

While you can’t completely stop a crack from spreading, timely repair can prevent it from growing larger. Using a windshield repair kit temporarily might help, but professional repair is recommended.

?
Can a small windshield crack become a big one?

Yes, even a small crack can spread due to temperature changes, road vibrations, or further impact. Early repair is essential to avoid needing a full windshield replacement.

?
Is it cheaper to repair or replace a windshield?

It’s typically cheaper to repair a windshield than to replace it, as repairs involve less labor and materials. However, if the damage is extensive, replacement might be necessary.

?
Do windshield cracks spread in heat or cold?

Yes, extreme temperatures can cause windshield cracks to expand. Heat causes the glass to expand, while cold makes it contract, worsening the crack.
