Understanding Windshield Damage
Learn how rock chip repairs work, when damage may still qualify for repair, why timing matters, and what to expect before scheduling your mobile windshield service with Rok Star.
When Can It Be Repaired?
The best repair results typically happen while the damage remains within the size of a quarter and before the crack continues spreading.
Why Time Matters
Heat, cold temperatures, and road impacts can cause windshield damage to spread, making repairs more difficult and sometimes requiring replacement.
Will The Chip Disappear?
No. The purpose of the repair is to stabilize the damage by filling it with resin rather than making the impact completely invisible.
Why A Quarter Photo?
Holding a quarter beside the damage provides a quick size reference that helps evaluate whether repair may still be possible.
Need Leak Diagnosis?
Water entering through the windshield, sunroof, or third brake light can be inspected to identify the source before recommending repairs.
Need Replacement Instead?
If the windshield can no longer be repaired, Rok Star can provide a windshield replacement quote to help you choose the next step.
