Factors that Impact Price

- Insurance or Cash

Do you know what your windshield-only deductible is? It may be less than your collision deductible. Give us a call and we will be happy to contact your insurance company with you to help you find out.


Fix-A-Crack is proud to work with USAA, Farmers, Geico, Allstate, Nationwide, Ameriprise, Progressive, State Farm and 70+ other insurance companies across the U.S.A. When using insurance, your windshield replacement cost equals your policy’s windshield deductible.

- OEM (“factory”) or Aftermarket

To many of our customers, that Jeep, Chevy and Ford logo are something pretty special. If that’s you, you want Original Equipment Manufacturer or “factory” glass. While that glass is more expensive than an aftermarket brand, most insurance policies in the state of Texas allow you to purchase OEM glass at the cost of your windshield deductible. If “factory” doesn’t matter, we will help you select a good aftermarket option. Call us at 956-360-0178

- Your Windshield Features

Do you have a heated area beneath your windshield wipers? Do you have automatic dimming in your rear view mirror? What about a heads up display on your windshield? Believe it or not, all these options influence what type of windshield to use. Generally speaking, the more options you have, the more expensive the windshield and therefore utilizing your insurance will usually save you money.

- Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS)

Do you have front facing cameras that assist you with braking or staying in your lane? Then you have an Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS). This means that when your windshield is replaced, your car manufacturer requires that the cameras be recalibrated [hyperlink to calibration page]. When paying out of pocket, recalibration is costly. Call us at 956-360-0178 and we will happily help you find out what your windshield-only deductible is.

- Lease vs. Owning Your Vehicle

If you are in an auto lease, your windshield must be replaced to Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) or “factory” standards. You do not have an option to replace a windshield with a typically less expensive aftermarket brand. Fix-A-Crack is approved by 70+ insurance companies throughout the U.S.A.


Windshield Replacement Warranty

Our expert technicians will evaluate the condition of the pinchweld (area of the vehicle behind the glass) for repairability. Our windshield replacements are warranteed against workmanship, leaks and defects for as long as you own the vehicle as long as you notify us of such defects within 30 days of installation.

There are several factors that can prevent the safe and proper installation of a new windshield.

  • Unrepairable rust in the pinchweld area
  • Perforations in and around the pinchweld area
  • Stress cracks in the pinchweld area, pillars and frame
  • Vehicle structural damage

The Fix-A-Crack Difference – Your Safety

Many glass shops would be willing to take your money and slap a piece of glass on a compromised surface. Many will take your money and never tell you about the damage. But your life is worth more to us than money. Because our first priority is your safety and the safety of your passengers, if during the replacement, we discover any of these conditions to your vehicle, we will stop the replacement process immediately. You will be responsible to transport the vehicle to an automotive body shop or collision center to fix the damage before the replacement will continue. Contact us at 956-360-0178 to discuss the details.
