A repairable chip takes fifteen to thirty minutes and costs $60 to $150, often nothing at all once comprehensive insurance is applied. Walk in during shop hours on 47th Street and we will usually look at it right then. Filling it now is what stops you paying for a whole windshield in February.

The chips we see from Borough Park come from close-range hits, not highway speed. A sanitation truck squeezing past a double-parked line flicks a stone. Something drops off a contractor's rack outside a renovation. A pebble comes off a delivery van's tire at the light. The damage is small, it sits there, and nobody thinks about it again until the weather turns.
That is the moment worth catching. If the break is smaller than a quarter, out of your direct sightline and not right at the edge of the glass, we can clean it out, draw the air out under vacuum, force optical resin into it and cure it. The strength comes back, the spread stops, and you keep your original factory-bonded windshield, which means no cutting, no new urethane and no camera recalibration. Total cost is a fraction of a replacement, and if you have comprehensive cover it is frequently waived entirely because the insurer would rather pay for this than for what comes next. The whole thing takes less time than finding a parking space on 13th Avenue, which is the argument we usually end up making to people who think they are too busy to deal with it this week. Bring it in while it is still small.

More on this service: Chip & Crack Repair at Shalom Auto Glass →
Chip repair is the service that made this shop's name around here, and not because it is complicated. It is because we do it when it is the right answer instead of pushing a windshield. Somebody comes in from 44th Street expecting bad news, leaves half an hour later with a filled chip and a small bill, and tells three people about it that week. Multiply that by years and you get 120 Google reviews that keep mentioning the same thing. The practical side is that Borough Park cars are ideal candidates. They cover short distances on local streets, so a fresh chip usually has not been stressed by highway flex before we get to it, and the damage is often only days old when someone walks in. Caught that early, almost anything within range fills cleanly.
Same service, same price, other Brooklyn neighborhoods:
No. Chip repair is the one job you can genuinely walk in for. We are open Monday through Thursday until 5, Friday until 2, and Sunday until 2. If you arrive within those hours we will look at the damage on the spot and, if it is repairable, usually have you back on the road inside half an hour.
Not always, and we would rather tell you that beforehand. Resin restores the strength of the glass and stops the crack running, but a faint mark can remain if you look for it in the right light. What matters is that the windshield is structurally sound again and you are not watching a crack creep across your view every morning.
Tell us the vehicle and the glass that's damaged — you'll see your price instantly, and we'll hold it for you.
