Bensonhurst runs on avenues that never really empty out. 18th Avenue and 86th Street carry shoppers all day, the D train rattles overhead, and the curb lane is doing three jobs at once. Glass takes a beating in that kind of traffic. We handle it from a shop a short run northeast, on Fort Hamilton Parkway near 55th Street, where the work is done under a roof with the right primer, the right urethane and new moldings on every job.
Aviv Glass & Mirror started with flat glass for South Brooklyn houses and storefronts, and the habits from that trade carry over: measure it, prep the frame, set the piece true. Call 646-386-2253 and you get a real number over the phone, not a shrug. Prices run $250 to $450 installed for most windshields, $60 to $150 for a chip, $200 to $500 for door, quarter and back glass. Insurance gets billed direct, and comprehensive coverage often makes a chip repair free. Every install carries a lifetime workmanship warranty. We are open 8:30 to 5:30, Monday through Sunday.
Driving here is a study in shadows and double parking. 86th Street sits under the D structure, so half the roadway is in permanent shade and the other half is a loading zone by default. 18th Avenue and Bay Parkway do the same thing a few blocks over, with buses squeezing past delivery trucks and shoppers stepping out between parked cars. The N train drops into the Sea Beach open cut, which means the streets crossing it narrow to bridges with no shoulder at all. South of Bath Avenue and Cropsey Avenue the grid opens toward Bensonhurst Park and the Belt Parkway, and the wind comes off the water. 20th Avenue and 65th Street handle the crosstown load. Most housing is attached, so overnight parking is street parking, and a car sits out in whatever the night brings.
“I have not been able to keep my bathroom window open for the past 2 years without having to place something on the base. I didn’t know who to call. I was referred to AVIV and they were here this morning. I didn’t have to wait long for this…”
The elevated structure over 86th Street is a steady source of grit. Bolts, flakes of paint and road dust drop down onto the roadway, then the next truck flings them at whatever is behind it. Bay Parkway and Cropsey Avenue carry heavy commercial traffic toward the Belt Parkway, and a stone off a tandem axle at 40 miles an hour makes a star break that spreads by morning. Tight alternate-side shuffles along 20th Avenue and the numbered streets produce the other half of our work: mirrors clipped, vent glass popped, a door window smashed by someone who wanted a bag off the seat. Salt air pushing up from the shore edge works at old moldings until the seal lets water in. And a chip that sat through a January cold snap will run once the defroster goes on full.
From anywhere between 18th Avenue and Bay Parkway, point the car northeast on Fort Hamilton Parkway and stay on it to 55th Street. That is about a mile and a half, 8 to 10 minutes when the avenue is behaving. Coming from the 20th Avenue side, 60th Street runs straight across and drops you two blocks away. We are at 5521, and the side streets off the Parkway usually give up a spot. If leaving is the problem, we come to you instead. A driveway, a garage apron or a quiet stretch of 79th Street works fine, so long as the ground is level and the day is dry enough for the urethane to cure. No trip charge for Bensonhurst.
Aviv Glass & Mirror works across Brooklyn and the surrounding towns — pick your neighborhood:
Usually yes, but pick the block carefully. We need a legal, reasonably flat spot where the van can pull in beside you and the door on the damaged side can open fully. Alternate-side days along 18th Avenue make that hard, so the side streets a block or two off the avenue tend to work better. Tell us the cross street when you call and we will say straight away whether it will work.
Both, and there is no line drawn between them. 11214 covers most of Bensonhurst down toward Bath Avenue and the park; 11204 runs up through the blocks near New Utrecht Avenue and shades into our own end of Brooklyn. Same pricing, same hours, no trip charge either way. If your address sits on the border with Bath Beach or Mapleton, it still counts.
Sunday is a normal working day for us, 8:30 to 5:30. A windshield is 60 to 90 minutes on the bench plus safe drive-away time for the urethane, so a mid-morning drop-off is usually a mid-afternoon pickup. A chip is about half an hour, short enough to wait. Tempered side and rear glass is same-day once the part is in hand, and the common vehicles around here are parts we can get quickly.
Tell us the vehicle and the glass that's damaged — you'll see your price instantly, and we'll hold it for you.
