Windshield Repair Process
Our repairs follow a documented process.
Rock chips and cracks on windshields are a common occurrence here in Edmonton. Most of us will experience this at least once every few years. While rock chips are annoying, most chips are usually repairable.
Read on as we take a look at the process of windshield rock chip repair.
Examine the Chip
The first step is to take a look at the damage to your windshield. There are various types of windshield chips and cracks. It depends on the size and type of rock chip whether it can be repaired or not.
Crack
A single line that extends from an impact point is a crack.
A crack can be repaired if it is less than 12 inches in length. If the crack is in the driver’s line of sight, it should not be repaired. The repaired crack could still impair the driver’s vision.
Bullseye
This type of rock chip is because it can often resemble a bullseye. It will have a central impact point, with a dark circle around it.
If the bullseye chip is less than 1 inch it can usually be repaired. It should not be repaired if it is in the driver’s field of vision.
Pit
A pit is a small chunk that is missing from the windshield. Most small pits can be repaired if they are less than 1 inch.
Star
A star rock chip is usually a central impact point with various cracks spreading out from the center.
If the star is less than 2 inches in diameter, it can usually be repaired. Once again, that is if the rock chip is not in the driver’s field of vision.
Combination
A combination chip is a rock chip that has features of a bulls eye chip and a star chip. If the diameter of the combination chip is less than 2 inches, that it can usually be repaired. Provided it is not in the driver’s field of vision.
