Auto Glass FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Auto Glass Services

Question: “I have a broken window on my vehicle. What should I do first?”

Answer: Contact the auto glass specialists at Magic Glass and Trim as soon as possible. We will then contact your insurance company and determine if you have auto glass coverage. Upon approval, we can then schedule an appointment for your auto glass service.

Question: “What happens if I don't have auto glass coverage?”

Answer:  Even if you don't have auto glass coverage through your insurance, give the team at Magic Glass and Trim a call. We offer drivers without auto glass coverage some of the most competitive prices in the Buffalo, NY area.

Question: “What should I do about all the tiny pieces of broken glass in my vehicle?”

Answer:  No need to fret, as our technicians will vacuum out all the broken glass and return your vehicle to glass-free once the auto glass service has been completed.

Question: "After my auto glass is replaced, what should I or shouldn't I do?"

Answer: For most vehicles, after repairing your auto glass you should avoid going through power car washes for at least 2 days. This gives the urethane (glue) time to set. In most cases, hand washing the vehicle or rain will not affect this process.

Question: "What happens to my inspection and registration stickers?"

Answer:  Our dedicated auto glass team will carefully remove the stickers before they begin the auto glass services and will place them back on once it's complete.

Question: "Do I need to bother repairing a small crack in my windshield?"

Answer:  Yes!  A small crack could expand, which will cause safety issues and lead to much worse damage.  It’s important that you get this repaired as soon as possible before it becomes a larger issue. 

Question: "What are the dangers of having cracked auto glass?"

Answer:  If your auto glass is cracked, it poses many dangers, including visibility obstruction, structural integrity, the potential for shattered glass, and much more.  Regardless of the size of the crack, it’s crucial to have it looked at right away. 

Question: "Does your company only handle glass replacement for newer cars?"

Answer:  No, at Magic Glass and Trim, we are happy to provide same-day auto glass replacement for vehicles of any make, model, or year. 

Question: "What areas do you serve?"

Answer:  At Magic Glass and Trim, we provide auto glass services for customers throughout Buffalo, NY, and the surrounding Western New York areas.
