Yes. Papa Auto Glass works on New Rochelle cars every day from 2080 Jerome Avenue in the Bronx, about twenty-five to thirty minutes down the Hutchinson River Parkway. Most side windows and many windshields are finished while you wait, and the mobile van can meet you at a North Avenue driveway or a commuter lot instead.

New Rochelle sits about ten miles from our door, which is far enough that you want the number settled before you turn the key. So we settle it on the phone. Tell us the year, make and model, whether the glass has a camera behind the mirror, and we give you a price. That price is what you pay at the counter when the car is done. A windshield replacement runs $200 to $500, with most cars landing between $250 and $450 installed, and it takes 60 to 90 minutes plus the safe drive-away time before you head back up I-95.
The other half of it is hours. We are open all seven days, early morning through late night, so a Metro-North commuter can hand over the keys before the morning train and collect the car after the ride back to the station. Weekend work is normal here, not an exception. If the trip itself is the problem, the van comes to you at the same price as in-shop with no trip fee, carrying the glass, urethane and tools. It needs a legal spot with a little clearance and dry weather, because urethane will not cure in rain.
Driving in New Rochelle splits along North Avenue. Above the parkway you are into Quaker Ridge, wide lots and driveways where a van can work beside the car without blocking anybody. South toward Main Street it turns into stop-and-go retail traffic, delivery trucks, and metered blocks where the clock matters. The New England Thruway and the Hutchinson River Parkway both cut through, and their ramps dump cars onto local streets fast. Iona University keeps the North Avenue corridor busy on weekday mornings. Down on Pelham Road the water is right there, and the air off the Sound leaves salt on everything, which is why window regulators and door glass channels seize up here more than they do inland. Commuter lots near the station fill early, so if you plan to leave the car with us, driving down beats circling for a space.
“In 7:30am with broken window, out with new window and vacuumed car at 8:01am. Great price so gave a good tip ahead of time. Good work. 2 thumbs up.”
Most of the New Rochelle glass we replace was cracked on I-95. The New England Thruway carries constant truck traffic through the city, and those lanes get patched, ground and repaved often enough that there is always loose stone sitting in the right lane. A pebble off a tandem at highway speed leaves a star, and by the second cold morning it has walked halfway across the glass. The Hutchinson River Parkway does its own kind of damage: no trucks, but overhanging limbs and winter sand thrown off the shoulder chip the lower half of a windshield. Then there is the salt air along Echo Bay and Pelham Road, which works into the pinch weld under aging urethane and starts a leak at an upper corner. Cars kept outside all winter near the water take the worst of it.
The simplest run from most of New Rochelle is the Hutchinson River Parkway south to the Cross Bronx Expressway, then west across the borough and off at Jerome Avenue. Coming from Pelham Road or the south end, I-95 south to the Cross Bronx works out about the same, twenty-five to thirty minutes without traffic. Our address is 2080 Jerome Avenue, under the elevated 4 train, a block from West Burnside Avenue and two blocks west of the Grand Concourse. The tracks overhead are the marker. If you would rather skip the drive, book the van, and note that the Hutch bars commercial vehicles, so we come up on I-95 or regular roads.

That depends on the quote, which is why we give you a real one before you leave. The number we say on the phone is the number on the invoice, and a windshield replacement takes 60 to 90 minutes plus safe drive-away time, so you are back over the county line the same morning. If the drive still does not make sense, the mobile van costs the same as coming in.
It can, as long as the space is legal for the length of the job and there is clearance on the working side of the car. Those lots fill early and some are permit-only, so tell us which one and we will plan around it. A driveway up in Quaker Ridge or off Pelham Road is easier. Chip repair is the safest bet in a lot, since it runs about thirty minutes and needs no cure time.
Not if the chip is smaller than a quarter and sits outside your direct line of sight. Resin fills it in about thirty minutes for $60 to $130, and comprehensive insurance often covers the whole thing. The repair keeps the factory seal, so nothing needs recalibrating afterward. Once a crack starts running, replacement becomes the only real fix, so call before the next cold snap.
Tell us the vehicle and the glass that's damaged — you'll see your price instantly, and we'll hold it for you.
