Windshield Repair

Chip in your windshield? Let us repair it!

At VitroPlus, we believe in repairing a windshield before replacing it. We will do anything in our power to help you save money!

With the state of today's roads, an impact to your windshield can happen at any time and can quickly turn into an irreparable crack. A minor windshield crack or chip can be repaired if it is taken care of in time. Once repaired, you will benefit from a windshield that will regain its original strength and provide complete protection.

How do you know if the damage is repairable?

First, evaluate the risk. It is important to identify the type of crack or chip that is on your windshield in order to assess its severity. There are several types of repairable chips. Here are some examples:

A cracked windshield can have two main causes:

  • Impact: This is the most common situation that usually occurs when a rock or road debris hits the windshield.
  • Stress Cracks: This is a crack without a point of impact. The most common causes are temperature changes, pressure changes and structural defects. This type of crack is difficult to repair because it usually starts at the edge of the windshield and often extends very quickly.

With either type of chip or crack it is important to act quickly. A windshield is designed to be strong. Its concave shape contributes to its resistance to external pressure and aerodynamics. A simple crack can considerably weaken the resistance of your windshield

    Repairs are possible for the following reasons:
  • If a crack or a chip does not exceed the circumference of a toonie.
  • If the crack has not extended beyond the exterior glass layer.
  • If it is not directly in the driver’s line of sight.
  • If the crack is not located in the ceramic strip.
  • If the impact point is located more than 3 cm from the visible windshield border.
