Glass is a big part of our daily lives and many of us do not think about all the ways it impacts us. One of the most common places we find glass is in our vehicles, and the windshield is one of the most important parts of the car in terms of safety. When it comes to windshield repair in Fayetteville area, here are some important things to remember:
Cracks– small cracks in the windshield glass can be repaired so long as they are not too big or deep and are not located directly in the line of vision of the driver. Repairs are usually done on site as the risk of driving the car with a damaged windshield is too great.
Chips– when a chunk of glass has been chipped out of the glass the entire structure can be weakened. If the chip is small and closer to the edge of the windshield it likely can be repaired. If the damage is too bad it will be best to have the windshield replaced.
Impacts– if your windshield gets hit by something hard, like a rock, branch or some other debris, then the glass will likely be damaged to some extent. Even if the damaged area is relatively small, it is usually severe enough to warrant a full glass replacement to be on the safe side.
Temperature– extreme temperatures and rapid changes in temperatures for the glass of your windshield can cause damage. Going from freezing to warm can shatter the glass and sudden drops in temperature can weaken the glass and cause small cracks to grow!
