Windshield Repair

We specialize in repairing rock chips and cracks in windshields using advanced resin injection techniques. Our technicians can address damage ranging from pea-sized chips to cracks up to 12 inches long. The process restores structural integrity while maintaining optical clarity, typically completed within 30-60 minutes depending on damage complexity. This service helps prevent further glass deterioration and eliminates the need for full replacement in many cases.

Windshield Replacement

Our full windshield replacement service utilizes OEM-certified glass and DuPont BetaSeal Xpress30 urethane for secure installation. The process includes transferring EZ-Tags and stickers, recalibrating ADAS systems, and ensuring proper sealing to prevent leaks. Technicians complete replacements in 2.5-4.5 hours depending on vehicle complexity, with a 30-minute safe-drive-away time guaranteed through proper urethane curing documentation.

ADAS Calibration

Following windshield replacement, we perform precision ADAS calibration to ensure proper functioning of safety features like lane departure warnings and automatic emergency braking. Using specialized equipment, technicians realign cameras and sensors to factory specifications, providing written calibration reports upon request. This critical service maintains vehicle safety systems' accuracy and reliability for Houston drivers.

Door Glass Replacement

We replace broken or damaged door glass for all vehicle types, handling both laminated and tempered glass varieties. The service includes careful removal of broken fragments, installation of new glass with proper tint matching, and functional testing of window mechanisms. Technicians complete most replacements within an hour while ensuring no damage to window regulators during the process.

Window Regulator Repair

Our technicians diagnose and repair faulty window regulators that control glass movement. The service addresses common issues like broken cables, worn pulleys, and motor failures. We replace damaged components with quality parts and test window operation to ensure smooth functionality. Labor costs start at $75 for standard vehicles, with transparent pricing for more complex automotive systems.

Chris does exceptional work and this will be the only place I will take my cars to for any future windshield repairs. Before bringing our Tesla there I spoke with him and texted him photos of the rock chip. I wanted to make sure he felt the chip was repairable before I brought the car in because the chip was in a weird spot. The chipped area was in the blacked area near the bottom of the windshield by the vin number.

He was very upfront about the service, explaining all the risks involved and his different experiences with this type of repair. He was even willing to do the work after working hours when the temperature was cooler to lower the chances for any cracking. Chris goes above and beyond for his customers!

I had one of the best experiences and amazing service for my car at Able Auto Glass. Chris was extremely prompt and responsive and gave me step by step updates on what glass he was ordering, how long it would take to install, and the cost. The turnaround for my rear window to be replaced was less than 48 hours and overall it was an incredibly pleasant experience. Cannot recommend he and his business enough!

Very genuine, kind, trustworthy, knowledgeable people! Chris and his wife definitely make a great team! I will definitely be coming back to them should I need them in the future. Very reasonable price for all the hard labor. Service: Auto windshield replacement

Chris walked me through the entire process over the phone and gave me some options on how I could save money. He was able to replace the fractured window on the same day the new order arrived. If this unfortunate circumstance ever happens again, I know what company to visit! Give these guys a shot; you will not be disappointed.

The weatherstrip on the driver side window of my old 4Runner came loose and badly scratched up the window. Was going to take it to Safelite to get it replaced but saw the great reviews for this place and decided to give it a try and am glad I did. The vehicle is old and they no longer make an OEM window but Chris found me one at a salvage yard. Did a great job installing window and new weatherstrip.

Chris went above and beyond providing different replacement options and comparing prices with other competitors for me. He was very upfront about the price and ensuring the right quality and specs. He was done replacing my windshield in about 2 hours. He also guarantees a warranty on the labor and discounts any repairs within the near future (from memory, I think it was 90 days but it might be longer). I'll be sure to come back for any future work (fingers crossed that it won't be anytime soon).
