Most chips take about 30 minutes and cost $60 to $150, and with comprehensive coverage the bill is often $0. Bring it in seven days a week, 8:30 to 5:30, or we come to a Flatbush block and do it at the curb. Repair beats replacement while the break is still small and outside your sight line.

Timing is everything with a chip, and Flatbush is hard on timing. A stone off the back of a truck on Coney Island Avenue leaves a break the size of a pencil eraser, you park, you forget it, and three cold snaps later it has run eight inches toward the A-pillar. Laminated glass is two layers with a plastic interlayer between them; the damage lives in the outer layer and in the air pocket underneath it. We draw that air out, fill the void so it stops acting like a wedge, and cure it hard. The scar dims, the glass regains its strength, and the break stops traveling.
What we will not do is talk you into a repair that will not hold. A break longer than a dollar bill, one sitting right where your eyes rest while you read Church Avenue traffic, or one that has already reached the edge of the glass gets a straight answer and a replacement quote instead. Otherwise it is half an hour, often nothing out of pocket, and you keep the factory seal you already have. If weekdays are impossible, we are open Sunday too, which suits people who only move the car on alternate-side days anyway.
“I called for a quote on two pieces of mirror. The lady I spoke to was very helpful. Took my measurements, offered to call me back with a price. She did promptly. Polite and professional throughout.”

Chip repair is the one job where coming to you genuinely saves the day, and 11226 makes that easy more often than people expect. We can work in front of a house on East 19th Street, in a driveway off Cortelyou Road, or in a legal spot near where you leave the car by Newkirk Plaza, as long as the ground is flat and it is not raining. Thirty minutes and the resin is cured. The reason we push people to call the same week is the open cut: the bridges over the B and Q carry expansion joints, and every hit across one flexes the glass around an existing break. Add a defroster blast in January and a $60 fix becomes a whole windshield.

No, and anyone promising that is guessing. A cured repair usually leaves a faint mark you can find if you go looking, though most people stop noticing it within a day. What matters is that the break stops spreading and the laminate gets its strength back. On a windshield you already own, keeping the original factory bond is worth more than a cosmetically perfect swap.
Usually, yes. We inspect each break separately, because size, depth and location decide whether it is a repair or a replacement, and a cluster sitting too close together can weaken an area more than a single hit did. If two are fixable and the third is not, we say so and price both paths for you. The inspection itself takes a few minutes while you wait.
