Chip repair takes about 30 minutes and costs $60 to $130, and with comprehensive coverage it's often $0. A chip smaller than a quarter, outside your direct sightline, can usually be filled instead of replaced. Resin keeps the factory seal, so nothing needs recalibrating. We're open every day, including the pre-dawn hours Hunts Point works.

Nobody drives out of the food center without collecting stone hits eventually. A trailer tire throws grit, it catches your glass at highway speed on the Bruckner, and you get a star the size of a pea that barely shows against a gray sky. Left alone through a Bronx winter, that star spreads. Water works into it, freezes overnight while the car sits on Halleck Street, and by the time you're scraping frost at four in the morning it's a six-inch crack. Half an hour and $60 to $130 now beats a full replacement later.
The repair is simple work. We clean the break out, draw the air off with a vacuum, inject resin under pressure and cure it, then polish the surface flat. The chip won't vanish; it goes from something that catches your eye to something you have to hunt for. Because the original bond is never disturbed, there's no adhesive cure, no drive-away wait and no calibration afterward. You can head straight back to work. Comprehensive policies often cover this with no deductible, and we file it directly so you're not fronting cash on a payday that's still a week out.
“Best price for my 2008 CRV windshield, no haggle. I had called 7 other places. COME HERE FIRST.”

Timing decides everything with chips, and this neighborhood makes timing hard. The people taking the most stone damage have the least room in the day to deal with it: overnight loaders, drivers running produce out before dawn, anyone whose morning ends as the rest of the city's begins. A pit that could have been filled in half an hour becomes a $400 windshield because a convenient Tuesday afternoon never arrived. That's the reason we don't close. Roll up Bruckner Boulevard at six in the morning on your way home, or on a Saturday when the market's quiet, and you're back on the road in about the time breakfast takes. If it's gone too far to fill, you'll hear that too.

Bring it and we'll look. The rule we use is that a chip smaller than a quarter and outside your direct line of sight can usually be filled. Past that, or once the crack reaches the edge of the glass, replacement is the honest answer. We won't fill something that's going to run again in a month just to take the money. You'll hear either way before we start.
Chip repair is the easiest job to bring out to you, since there's no cure time to wait through. We need a legal spot with a little room and dry conditions, because resin and rain don't mix. Truck lanes and active docks are out, but a curb on a residential side street near Garrison Avenue works fine. Same price as the shop, and no trip fee inside the coverage area.
