Auto Glass Repair and Windshield Replacement in Hillsborough, NC

Drive-In Shop or Mobile Service for Hillsborough, NC

How Mobile Service Works in Hillsborough

Send the VIN and a short note on the damage. Impex confirms the right glass, and a local technician comes on the agreed day. The technician works in your driveway, at your office or in a lot where the owner allows it.

To get ready, leave the car on level ground, take any dash mounts and tags off the glass, and have the keys ready. If it is raining and there is no garage, Impex will call to set a new time.

An hour west, the Greensboro shop can do the work indoors at 8748 W Market St, which is handy for static calibrations.

Windshield Repair or Replacement for Hillsborough Drivers

Chip and Crack Repair: When It Works

Resin repair fits chips that are small, shallow and away from the edge. It keeps your windshield and stops the chip from turning into a crack. The industry repair standard (ROLAGS) allows stone breaks up to two inches across and single cracks up to 14 inches, but where the damage sits matters as much as its size. A chip right in front of the driver is often better replaced. Hillsborough drivers can read more on windshield chip repair.

Full Windshield Replacement With VIN-Matched Glass

For a crack that has spread, Impex’s certified technicians, with years of experience, replace the windshield and restore the car to manufacturer standards. Our page on windshield replacement explains the job.

ADAS Camera Calibration After a New Windshield

If your car has a camera on the windshield, Impex calibrates it after the replacement so lane and collision features work properly. If you want the detail, see windshield camera calibration.

Side Windows, Back Glass and Radar Calibration

Side and Door Window Replacement

Broken door glass is cleared out and the window replaced. Our page on side and door windows explains the job.

Back Glass and Rear Windshield Replacement

Budget one to two hours for a rear window. Impex ensures professional, reliable results. The technician vacuums the broken tempered glass out of the cargo area and seats, sets the new rear window and reconnects the defroster and any antenna leads before signing off.

ADAS Radar Calibration

Radar in the bumper or grille is calibrated after bumper repairs or a sensor change.

Rock Chips on NC 86 and I-85? Fix Them Early

Why Small Chips Spread

NC 86, NC 57 and US 70 run through Hillsborough, and I-85 and I-40 meet just outside town. That is a lot of interstate traffic and a lot of trucks. Chips picked up there grow when the glass heats up in the sun and cools down overnight.

Repair vs Replace: A Quick Check

Chip smaller than a quarter and not near the edge: repair. Crack longer than a dollar bill or touching the edge: replacement. Not sure? Send a photo with the quote.
