Windshield Repair and Replacement
A damaged windshield isn’t
just an inconvenience.
It compromises your safety, reduces visibility, and can even be illegal to drive with in California. Whether you’re dealing with a small chip that’s spreading or a completely shattered windshield, Glass Monkey provides professional repair and replacement service at your location. We bring the shop to you, saving you time while ensuring your vehicle is safe and road-ready.
Key Benefits
- Chip Repair: Small chips and cracks under 6 inches can often be repaired quickly and affordably. We assess the damage and use professional resin injection to restore structural integrity and prevent spreading, usually completed in 30 minutes or less.
- Full Windshield Replacement: When damage is too extensive for repair, we provide complete windshield replacement using quality glass that meets or exceeds OEM standards. Our experienced technicians ensure proper installation, sealing, and calibration for advanced safety systems.
- Mobile Service Advantage: No need to drive with a dangerous cracked windshield or spend your day at a shop. We come to your home, office, or any location in the Bay Area and complete the work while you go about your day.
- Insurance Documentation: We provide detailed invoices and documentation you can submit to your insurance company. Many comprehensive policies cover windshield repair with no deductible and replacement with minimal cost to you.

How long does windshield replacement take?
Most windshield replacements take 60 to 90 minutes from start to finish. Small chip repairs can often be completed in 30 minutes or less. After replacement, we recommend waiting 1 to 2 hours before driving to allow the adhesive to cure properly.
Can a cracked windshield be repaired or does it need replacement?
It depends on the size, location, and type of damage. Chips smaller than a quarter and cracks under 6 inches can often be repaired if they’re not directly in the driver’s line of sight. Our technician will assess your damage and recommend the best solution for safety and cost effectiveness.
Will my insurance cover windshield repair or replacement?
Many comprehensive auto insurance policies cover windshield damage. Some policies cover chip repairs with no deductible at all, while replacements may have a small deductible. We provide detailed invoices and documentation you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.
Do I need to be present during the windshield replacement?
Yes, we need access to your vehicle and someone should be present to move the vehicle if needed and to receive instructions about drive-away time. However, you don’t need to watch the entire process. Many customers go back inside to work or relax while we complete the service.
What happens if it rains after my windshield is replaced?
Modern windshield adhesives cure quickly and form a water-resistant seal within the first hour. Light rain after 2 hours is generally fine. We’ll advise you on the specific cure time based on temperature and humidity conditions on the day of your service, and we can cover the vehicle if rain is expected immediately after installation.
