The van comes to your block at the same price you would pay at the shop, with no trip charge on a Gravesend address. What we need is a reasonably flat spot and dry weather so the urethane cures properly. Most windshields take 60 to 90 minutes at the curb, and chips about half an hour.

Mobile work means the same standard applied in a less forgiving place. We arrive with the glass, primer, urethane, new moldings and clips, a vacuum and our own power, and we set up wherever the car already sits. What we ask for is modest: ground that is roughly level, room to swing both front doors fully open, and a dry stretch in the forecast. Urethane pulls moisture from the air to cure, but it does not want rain landing in the bead, so a soaking afternoon gets rescheduled rather than rushed through. Cold on its own does not stop the van; standing water in the bead is what stops it.
Where you park changes the plan more than what you drive does. A driveway off one of the numbered streets is ideal. A legal curb spot on a quiet block is fine. Under the elevated structure on McDonald Avenue is the one place we will ask you to move from, because debris coming down off those tracks has no business anywhere near an open bond line. Give us the cross streets when you book and you will get a straight answer about whether your spot works, or which corner nearby does.
“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…”

Fifteen minutes is not much of a drive, so distance is rarely why people here book the van. It is the space. Give up a legal spot near Gravesend Neck Road on a weekday morning and you may not see another one until the evening, which turns a ninety-minute job into a four-hour errand. Same story for anyone running a shop along Avenue U who cannot lock the door mid-morning. So we come south instead. The van covers all of 11223, from the Ocean Parkway service roads across to Shell Road and down toward the Coney Island end, and no trip charge is attached to any of it. Book a day ahead where you can, since street cleaning and school pickup between them eat the middle of the day around here.
Same service, same price, other Brooklyn neighborhoods:
We call and move it, usually to the next dry slot, which is rarely more than a day or two out. Water sitting in a fresh urethane bead is how leaks and wind noise begin, and that is a callback nobody wants. If your car is open to the weather in the meantime, we can come out first and cover the opening so the interior stays dry.
No. A windshield fitted on Van Sicklen Street costs what the same windshield costs on Fort Hamilton Parkway, and no trip charge is added for this neighborhood. We quote a number on the phone and that number is what you pay. Insurance is billed directly either way, and the lifetime workmanship warranty follows the install, not the address.
