Windshield Chip & Crack Repair that comes to you

A stone chip on the freeway looks minor, but heat, vibration and potholes can turn it into a crack that runs across the glass. The first question is whether the damage can be repaired or whether the windshield needs replacing. Epic Auto Glass helps Los Angeles drivers answer that question and handle the next step, whether that's windshield chip and crack repair or a new windshield.

Windshield replacement is our core service. For chips and short cracks that can be repaired, we refer the repair and help with the logistics. Chip repair arranged through a referral comes with no guarantee on the result.

When the damage is too large, keeps spreading or sits in the driver's view, we replace the glass ourselves with our mobile windshield replacement service, often the same day.

Know the signs

Repair or replace: the signs

Small, fresh chips

Small chips caught soon after they happen are usually the strongest candidates for repair.

Cracks under six inches

A short crack that hasn't started spreading may be repairable instead of replaced.

Outside the driver's view

A repair can leave a faint mark, so damage away from the driver's direct view is a better fit.

When replacement is safer

Long or spreading cracks, shattered glass and damage in front of cameras or sensors usually need a new windshield.

Our process

How the job gets done

  1. Send a photo

    Call or text (213) 282-1654 with a photo of the damage and your year, make and model.

  2. Assess the damage

    We look at the size, depth and location of the chip or crack and tell you plainly whether repair or replacement makes sense.

  3. Arrange the next step

    For repairable chips, we refer you and help coordinate the repair. For larger damage, we schedule a replacement.

  4. Replace if needed

    When a new windshield is the safer choice, our mobile technicians install it at your home, office or job site.

Repair or replace: how to tell

Repair generally suits small chips and short cracks, under about six inches, that sit outside the driver's direct line of sight. Damage larger than a credit card, cracks that keep growing, shattered glass, or damage in front of cameras and sensors usually point to replacement instead.

How chip repair referrals work

We don't perform chip repair in-house. When your damage looks repairable, we refer you to a repair provider and help coordinate the logistics. Because the repair is done by someone else, there is no guarantee on the result.

Why waiting costs more

Los Angeles swings between hot afternoons and cool nights, and that expansion and contraction stresses a damaged spot. Add freeway vibration and potholes, and a repairable chip can become a crack that needs new glass. Until it's looked at, keep the chip clean and dry and avoid pointing the defroster or air conditioning straight at it.

FAQ

Windshield Chip & Crack Repair FAQ

Still have a question? Call or text us and a real person will answer.

Do you repair windshield chips yourselves?

No. Chip and crack repair is handled through a referral, and we help with the logistics. There is no guarantee on referral repair results.

How do I know if my chip can be repaired?

Text us a photo. Small chips and short cracks outside the driver's view are often repairable, while long, spreading or sightline cracks usually need replacement.

What if my windshield needs replacing?

We replace windshields ourselves at your home, office or job site, often the same day on a first come, first served basis, and back that work with a 30-day workmanship warranty.

Can a side or rear window be repaired?

Side and rear windows are usually tempered glass, which shatters rather than chips, so they're replaced instead of repaired.
