Crack Repair
Catch it early. Most cracks under 15cm can be repaired — saving you hundreds.
Overview
What this is.
Most windshield cracks start as a chip that was ignored for too long. If your crack is shorter than 15cm and hasn't reached the edge of the glass, a resin injection can restore 95% of the original strength — in under an hour. Wait too long, and the only option is a full $350+ replacement.
How it works
- 01The crack is assessed for length, depth, and location.
- 02A bridge tool is positioned along the crack to apply even pressure.
- 03Resin is injected along the full length of the crack.
- 04UV curing hardens the resin and restores structural integrity.
When to do it
Signs you need this.
- Crack is shorter than 15cm (6 inches)
- Crack does not extend to the edge of the windshield
- No branching or starburst patterns
- Glass is not delaminating or flaking
Common in Calgary
