Rock chips and cracks might seem like minor annoyances at first, but even a tiny nick in your windshield can quickly grow into a major safety hazard. In Portland’s ever-changing weather—sunny one moment, hail and heavy rain the next—your windshield takes a beating from road debris, gravel, and sudden temperature swings. At Mobile Auto Glass Portland, we specialize in rock chip and windshield crack repair, preserving your vehicle’s structural integrity and saving you time and money before a small blemish becomes a costly full replacement.

Why Prompt Rock Chip Repair Matters

When a rock or piece of debris strikes your windshield, it often leaves behind a “star” pattern of tiny fractures or a bull’s-eye crater. Over time, these fissures can spiderweb across the glass, impairing visibility and compromising the windshield’s role as a key structural component in a crash or rollover. By repairing a rock chip within the first 30 days, you reduce the risk of the crack spreading—and you may maintain 100% insurance coverage for a repair, rather than paying a deductible for a full replacement.

The Mobile Auto Glass Portland Difference

What truly sets Mobile Auto Glass Portland apart is our fully mobile service. We bring our glass-repair expertise right to your driveway, office parking lot, or even your child’s school, so you never have to shuffle through traffic or sacrifice a half-day waiting in line at a shop. Our service vans arrive equipped with OEM-grade resin formulations, curing lamps, and precision injection tools. In most cases, a rock chip repair takes about 30 minutes start to finish—and once the resin has bonded and polished, the blemish is nearly invisible.

How Our Rock Chip Repair Process Works

1. Damage Assessment
   Our certified technicians start by examining the chip or crack to ensure it’s within repairable limits (generally under 2 inches in diameter and not directly in the driver’s line of sight). If the damage is too extensive, we’ll recommend a full replacement instead of a repair.

2. Cleaning and Preparation
   We clean the damaged area, removing any loose glass fragments or moisture. This step is critical to ensure the resin bonds properly.

3. Resin Injection
   Using a precision injector, we apply a clear, high-strength resin into the chip. The resin fills the voids, prevents air from entering, and restores the glass’s structural integrity.

4. Curing and Polishing
   A UV lamp cures the resin in just a few minutes, hardening it to match the windshield’s clarity and strength. Finally, we polish the surface smooth, blending the repair seamlessly into the surrounding glass.

Crack Repair for Longer Fissures

For longer cracks—up to about a foot in length—our technicians employ a similar resin-injection technique, with specialized clamps to keep the crack edges aligned. By sealing the crack and halting its progression, we often save customers the cost of a full windshield replacement. Repairs like these typically take 45–60 minutes, depending on the crack’s complexity.

Insurance Handling and Best Price Guarantee

Navigating insurance can be confusing, but Mobile Auto Glass Portland makes it simple. Our Claims Service team works directly with all major insurance carriers to submit paperwork, secure approvals, and maximize your coverage—often reducing your out-of-pocket expense for a rock chip repair to zero. Plus, our Best Price Guarantee means we’ll match or beat any competitor’s quote for the same service, ensuring you get the best value without sacrificing quality.

Lifetime Leak Protection

While rock chip repairs are designed to prevent chip growth and restore clarity, every service we provide benefits from our commitment to quality. Should any repair fail—whether due to environmental stress or manufacturing defects—we stand behind our workmanship. Simply let us know, and we’ll make it right.
