Almost every driver out there came to a situation where he had to handle a difficult decision – either repair or replace their cracked car windshield. Normally the damage is either a little chip or a scratch, in which case the local mechanic shop can certainly repair it, and quite often driver him or her self can repair it as well. On the other hand, in case the harm is larger, then the choice gets much harder. Of course nearly all people prefer to service their windshield, however it’s a good idea to ask a qualified specialist. When the cost of repair service is more as compared to half of the value of the brand new window, then it is just common sense to get a new one rather then repairing, since the majority of substantial repairs might not last for very long due to various invisible problems.

Gaele N wrote: am so happy I called these guys! First of all, they offer reasonable pricing (150$ for a rear window and that includes everything). They are also very polite and helpful on the phone, which is nice. The best part was the actual repair: Fred, the technician, was professional, laid back, and did an excellent job on my car! I would not hesitate to call them if I ever needed a window or my windshield fixed. Highly recommended!

They had someone there by 9 am, and it was replaced beautifully within an hour. $180 — which I am supposed to get reimbursed because the police actually caught, arrested, and convicted the guy who did it!
Fast, courteous, clean and reasonably priced. Highly recommended.

After putting off getting my windshield replaced because of my current low dollar situation, I finally came across some extra dollars and called around for a price quote. These guys are incredibly lower than the other places I called. And their warranty is awesome-lifetime warranty against flying rocks-Which is nice with my luck.(I got a crack in my windshield from a flying rock two days after I purchased my car.)
They came to my work and were done in less than 30 minutes…
I for sure recommend Clear View Auto Glass!

they get the job done, or if they can’t they have enough network contacts to find you someone who can, and at a reasonable price.
they didn’t treat me like a “girl” and high ball me or test my car knowledge, they knew what needed to get the job done and delivered with the highest of quality.
Will continue to refer them to friends and family also for any glass needs

Roberto answered the phone himself and installed my windshield himself (with the help of one other guy). I had my windshield replaced last year round the same time and the guy totally botched the job and didn’t seal it right. Roberto noticed it right away and assured me that that wouldn’t happen again…and it DIDN’T. No more wind whistling in my car…I’m a happy camper. Thanks Roberto
