What’s the best time to fix or replace a cracked windshield?

When a rock bounces off of your windshield, you probably feel that sinking feeling. After inspecting the cracked windshield, one question naturally arises: Can I repair it or do I need to replace it? There may be more to the answer than you think! Read on to learn when to repair a cracked windshield or replace it – we’ll clear up those questions today!

Cracked vs. chipped windshields

There are a variety of sources for windshield damage, but not all are the same. When your windshield is damaged by something like a small rock or by an animal collision, the way you handle it can be very different. We need to understand how a windshield works before we can discuss the types of damage.

The term “safety glass” is sometimes used to describe auto glass or windshield glass. In reality, it’s two pieces laminated together with a plastic layer in between, rather than one piece. This design prevents your windshield from shattering into much larger, dangerous pieces if an object strikes it.

Windshield chips

Chips occur when a portion of the glass layer is broken off by an impact. When the damage is small enough, it can usually be repaired. It may be necessary to replace the chip if it penetrates the inner layer of plastic. The seeds for cracks often grow from small chips, which may not seem a big deal on their own.

Windshield cracks

Unlike a chip, a crack is a line that marks the beginning of a separation between two pieces of glass. The size of these can begin small, but over time they tend to grow.

Changes in temperature can cause the windshield to expand or contract, regardless of whether it is exposed to the sun’s rays or driving through frigid air. Your windshield crack can gradually spread if you let this process happen.

Additionally, dirt particles can get trapped in cracks, causing them to worsen over time. You can temporarily prevent your windshield from spreading by covering it with tape if it is cracked.

Additionally, everyday wear and tear can aggravate a crack. A speed bump, pothole, or irregular road impact travels the entire length of your vehicle. Damage can also spread as a result of repetitive stress.

There are a lot of combinations of these two major groups, as well as everything in between.
