Service 1st Auto Glass: Windshield Repair & Auto Glass Replacement, Sacramento California

Proper Windshield Replacement Just as Important as Seat Belts & Airbags

Although windshield replacement can seem like normal car maintenance, calling the first windshield replacement company that you find isn't always the best solution.

Reason?

While your windshield may seem like it just protects you from weather, wind and bugs, it serves an even greater purpose. It's actually a vital component of your vehicle's safety net and helps support the roof of your car. In reality, your windshield should be taken as seriously as your seat belts and airbags.

The National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration's has said that more than 12,000 people die after being ejected from a vehicle or critically injured during a rollover every year. The National Glass Association's (NGA) has confirmed that a significant percentage of those fatalities occur because the windshield does not remain firmly bonded to the roof. The percentage is probably higher, but not all cases are documented.

Before hiring a Windshield Replacement professional, make sure they meet these 5 criteria!

Doing your homework when selecting an California windshield replacement company is important.

When selecting your windshield replacement professional, you should look for the following items:

NGA Logo (National Glass Association) so that you can be assured that they are up-to-date on the latest technology and best practices.
Ask them if their technicians are trained and certified by NGA.
Ask them if they endorse AGRSS (Auto Glass Replacement Standard)
Ask how long the job will take. If it will take less than an hour, make sure that two technicians will be present.
Ask about the recommended Safe Driveaway time to ensure that the adhesive used will have adequate time to bond.
