Indiana winters can be brutal, and the next one will be here before you know it. When people think about winterizing their cars, they usually think tires, four-wheel drive, and heating systems. GlassPro, Inc. of Lawrenceburg, IN, has an addition to this list: windshield repair.

If your windshield needs repair, no matter the make or model, these auto glass replacement and repair specialists can help. They know that windshield repair might not be at the top of most winter preparation lists, but they would like to offer the following three reasons why it should be:

• Cold Can Make The Damage Worse: Small cracks or chips that happen in warm weather might not seem like a big issue, but extreme cold can weaken already-damaged auto glass, causing an easily repairable crack to spider into one that requires full windshield replacement. Visiting GlassPro, Inc. before winter arrives can save you money on repair costs in the end.
• Cold-Weather Replacement is More Difficult: Weather and moisture can affect the curing of adhesive during windshield replacement. Depending on the adhesive used, some adhesives can require 50 degrees and 50% humidity to cure before your car will be ready to drive. If you bring your car to GlassPro, Inc., the replacement can be done, thanks to their use of the right materials and the best facility, but the curing process can take significantly longer in colder temperatures.
• Winter Brings More Road Debris: In the winter, snowplows can do both good and harm. While they do a great job at clearing the roadways, they can kick up ice, salt, gravel, and other projectiles in their wake. These can cause new windshield damage and worsen any imperfections in auto glass already weakened by extreme temperatures. Making sure your windshield is in the best condition before severe weather starts can prevent the need for additional repairs.
