YOUR AUTO GLASS QUESTIONS ANSWERED

We understand that you may have questions about our auto glass services. To help you get the information you need, we’ve compiled a list of frequently asked questions and their answers. If you can’t find the information you’re looking for, feel free to contact us, and we’ll be happy to assist you.

How do I know if my windshield needs to be repaired or replaced?

A general rule of thumb is that if the chip or crack is smaller than a credit card or a quarter, it can be repaired. However, our technicians will assess the damage and recommend the best course of action based on the size, depth, location, and type of damage.

How long does a windshield repair or replacement take?

A chip repair usually takes about 30 minutes, while a windshield replacement typically takes between 1-2 hours. The exact duration may vary depending on the make and model of your vehicle and any additional services required, such as ADAS recalibration.

Will my insurance cover the cost of auto glass services?

Many insurance policies cover auto glass repair and replacement, but coverage can vary depending on your specific policy. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to verify your coverage. Cactus Valley Auto Glass is happy to work with most insurance companies and can help you with the claims process.

Can you service my specific make and model of vehicle?

Our skilled technicians are experienced in working with a wide range of vehicle makes and models, including cars, trucks, SUVs, and commercial vehicles. If you have any concerns about your vehicle’s compatibility, please contact us, and we’ll be happy to help.

How soon can I drive my vehicle after a windshield replacement?

We recommend waiting at least 1 hour after a windshield replacement to allow the adhesive to cure properly. This ensures a secure and safe installation. Our technicians will provide you with specific instructions based on your vehicle and the materials used.

Is there a warranty on your auto glass services?

Yes, we stand behind our workmanship and offer a warranty on our auto glass services. Please refer to our warranty information page for details on coverage and limitations.

What is ADAS, and why does it need to be recalibrated?

ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) is a suite of safety features designed to assist drivers and enhance vehicle safety. These systems may include features like lane departure warnings, adaptive cruise control, and automatic emergency braking. When a windshield is replaced, the cameras and sensors used by ADAS may need recalibration to ensure they continue to function accurately.

 

How do I maintain my new windshield or auto glass after replacement?

To ensure the longevity and integrity of your new auto glass, follow these simple tips:

  • Avoid slamming your car doors, as the pressure can cause stress on the new glass.
  • Wait at least 72 hours before washing your car to prevent water from interfering with the adhesive.
  • Don’t remove the retention tape used to hold the windshield moldings in place for 2 weeks until the adhesive has fully cured.
  • Avoid parking in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, as this can cause the adhesive to cure unevenly.

How long does it take for the adhesive to cure fully after a windshield replacement?

While the initial cure time is typically 1 hour, it can take up to 2 weeks for the adhesive to cure fully. Our technicians will provide you with specific instructions based on your vehicle and the materials used.

Can you fix power window issues and window regulators?
