From “there’s a crack” to “it’s done”
Four steps, and no obligation at any of them.
- 1
Tell us what happened
Where the damage is, how big it is, and whether it sits in your line of sight.
- 2
Repair or replace
Short chips away from the driver’s view can often be repaired. Long or edge damage cannot.
- 3
Check the insurance angle
Three states waive the deductible outright. Elsewhere it depends what you opted into.
- 4
Matched to a local company
You get a licensed local company, their quote, and the calibration question answered up front.
What to expect from this site
Every number on this site has a source and a date attached — and where the sources disagree, we say so instead of picking the convenient one.
Answer first, then detail
Each page opens by answering its own question in a couple of sentences. The detail comes after, for anyone who wants it.
Ranges, not fake precision
Glass pricing genuinely varies. We publish the range our sources support rather than one confident number that fits nobody.
We say when repair beats replacement
A repairable chip should be repaired. That is the cheaper outcome and it keeps your factory seal intact.
We are not the contractor
We do not fit glass, so we have nothing to gain from talking you into replacing it. The work is done by licensed local companies.

Tell us what the damage looks like and we will put you in front of a licensed local company — no obligation.
