How to price around for auto glass quotes.

    Everyone who drives eventually will have to repair or replace a windshield, door glass, etc... on their vehicle. And you should shop around before making a big decision. You should grab a pen and sheet of paper and write down what you want or expect from an auto glass company. 

In-shop or mobile services

    Most auto glass companies offer in-shop services. Some offer schedule only appointments and some accept walk in business if they can accommodate. If you have the availability and don't mind dropping your vehicle off or waiting 2.5 hours this may work for you. However, if you're not able to miss work, unable to leave the house or prefer not to lose a step in your day, mobile service maybe the better option. Of course convenience cost more. Most mobile services come with an additional fee. In-shop services are usually cheaper than mobile services.

Cost

    Most people shop around for the best price, meaning cheapest cost out there. But don't ask whats included in that great price. The cheaper the price, the cheaper the product. In these situation I can promise you that you're getting aftermarket product all around the broad. At the beginning and end of the day companies want to make a profit. So if the price is low, so is the quality product. Pending the company's overhead. You should always ask what are my options? which in that case are OEM Original Equipment Manufacturer which has a sound resistance barrier within it. Or aftermarket product, a lesser quality and no sound resistance. Some companies even go universal molding to cut cost. However, affordable price doesn't always mean cheap product. There are 1 man army auto glass provider with next to nothing overhead like Perfect Touch Auto Glass. With no physical shop, no secretary, no electric bill, water bill, employees, PTAG is able keep cost down and provide mobile only services with OEM parts only.

Warranty

    What type of warranty do the company offer. Most companies offer a lifetime warranty. However, some companies only offer in-shop warranty services.  Perfect Touch Auto Glass in Richmond, Virginia offers mobile front door services.

Reviews
