At Bolt Auto Glass, we understand that getting your windshield replaced might feel like a hassle. Whether you’ve got a small crack that spread overnight or major damage from an accident, it’s not just about fixing the glass — it’s about your safety and peace of mind.
We want you to feel confident from the moment you call us to the minute you drive away with a brand-new windshield. That’s why we’re breaking down the full process of windshield replacement so you’ll know exactly what to expect.
Let’s walk through it, step by step.
Step 1: Initial contact and scheduling
The process begins as soon as you give us a call at 905-909-8877. Whether your windshield has a small crack or you’ve got a full break, our team will help determine if a repair or replacement is the best solution for your vehicle. We know your time is valuable, so we offer flexible scheduling to suit your needs. Same-day repairs and replacements are available, so you don’t have to wait long to get back on the road.
Step 2: Arrival and inspection
When our certified technicians arrive at your location (or our shop, depending on where your appointment is), we’ll start by thoroughly inspecting the damage. We’ll ensure the windshield truly needs a replacement and explain the process to you in simple terms.
If the crack or chip is repairable, we’ll let you know right away. However, if the damage is in a critical area or too large, replacement is the only safe option. Don’t worry—we’ll guide you through every step.
Step 3: Removal of the old windshield
Once we’ve confirmed the need for a replacement, it’s time to carefully remove your old windshield. Our expert team uses high-quality tools to remove the glass without damaging your vehicle’s frame. We take the time to ensure every step is done right—no shortcuts here.
We’ll carefully remove the windshield and dispose of it in an environmentally friendly way, so you don’t have to worry about cleanup.
Step 4: Preparing the frame and cleaning
Before we install the new windshield, we’ll make sure the frame is free from debris, old adhesive, or moisture. A clean frame ensures that the new glass will be securely and correctly bonded. We’ll also inspect the surrounding area for any potential rust or damage that might affect the installation.
Step 5: Installing the new windshield
Now comes the exciting part—installing the new windshield. We only use OEM-quality materials and industry-leading adhesives to ensure that your windshield is as safe as it is durable. Our certified technicians will carefully align the new glass with your vehicle’s frame, ensuring a perfect fit and finish.
The adhesive takes some time to cure, so we’ll leave it to set for about an hour. During this time, we’ll make sure everything is aligned and looking great.
Step 6: Final inspections and cleanup
Once the adhesive has set, we’ll perform a final inspection to ensure everything is secure and up to our high standards. We’ll check for any gaps or leaks, so you can be confident in your new windshield.
We’ll also clean both the inside and outside of your windshield, making sure it’s spotless and free from any fingerprints or smudges.
Step 7: Post-installation care
After the windshield replacement in Mississauga, we’ll walk you through some simple post-installation care tips. For example, we’ll recommend waiting at least an hour before driving to allow the adhesive to fully cure. We also suggest not washing your car or using windshield wipers for the first 24 hours.
If you have any questions or concerns about your new windshield, don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We’re here to help, and we want to ensure your complete satisfaction with our service.
