Protect Your Windshield: Understanding How Rock Chips Happen
Rock chips are a common issue caused by small stones, gravel, or debris that get kicked up by the tires of other vehicles. When these projectiles hit your windshield at high speeds, they create small pits or chips in the glass. Factors like highway driving, trailing behind large trucks, or navigating gravel roads can increase your chances of getting rock chips. Additionally, drastic temperature changes can cause existing chips to expand, turning minor imperfections into major cracks. It’s crucial to address rock chips promptly to prevent further damage and ensure your vehicle’s safety. At Glassco Surrey, we’re here to help keep your windshield clear and your ride safe!

Spotting and Fixing Rock Chips: Your Guide to Windshield Safety
When driving, your vehicle’s windshield can encounter various types of rock chips, each needing specific repair techniques. Common types include the Bullseye, with circular impact rings; the Star Break, featuring radiating cracks; the Combination Break, a mix of both; the Crack Chip, starting small and potentially spreading into a long crack; and the Surface Pit, a shallow damage point. Our skilled technicians effectively repair all these types, ensuring your windshield remains safe and clear.
Why Rock Chip Repair is Essential
- Prevent Further Damage: A small rock chip may seem insignificant, but it can quickly spread into a larger crack, especially when exposed to temperature fluctuations and road vibrations. Addressing the chip promptly can prevent it from expanding and compromising the integrity of your windshield.
- Safety First: Your windshield is a critical safety component of your vehicle. It provides structural support and helps protect you in the event of an accident. A damaged windshield can impair your visibility and weaken the overall strength of the glass, putting you at risk. Repairing chips ensures your windshield maintains its protective capabilities.
- Cost-Effective Solution: Repairing a rock chip is significantly more affordable than replacing an entire windshield. By addressing chips early, you can avoid the higher costs associated with full replacements. Rock chip repair is a quick and cost-effective solution that saves you money in the long run.
- Maintain Aesthetics: A chipped windshield can be an eyesore. Repairing the chip not only restores the integrity of the glass but also improves the overall appearance of your vehicle. A clear, unblemished windshield enhances your car’s look and resale value.
