Windshield repair, before the chip becomes a windshield
A chip is a small job on a schedule of its own choosing — South Florida heat has a way of shortening the deadline.
- Mobile only, by design — the van comes to your driveway, office or job site anywhere in our seven-county footprint
- Same-day scheduling when your glass is in stock — most common windshields are
- Lifetime workmanship warranty against water leaks and air noise, defined in full further down this page
- Insurance claims handled — we set up the claim and bill your carrier directly, and Florida law waives the windshield deductible under comprehensive cover
You're all set, there.
We've got your request. A Maximum Glass tech will call you shortly to confirm the glass, your coverage and a time that works.
Why chips spread faster here
Glass expands in heat, and a windshield in a Florida parking lot cycles from air-conditioned cold to triple-digit surface temperature every single day. That expansion works the edges of a chip like bending a paperclip. The first blast of July A/C onto hot glass is when a month-old chip decides to run — which is why the cheap fix has a shelf life and the quote form has a photo field.
What a resin repair actually does
The damaged area is cleaned out, air is drawn out of the break under vacuum, and an optical resin is injected and UV-cured. Done early, the repair restores the glass's structural bond and stops the crack spreading; the blemish shrinks to a faint mark you have to look for. Done late — after dirt and water have lived in the break — the strength still comes back but the cosmetic result is honest rather than invisible. Earlier is simply better.
When we will refuse to repair
Damage in the driver's direct line of sight, chips bigger than a quarter, cracks longer than a few inches, or anything reaching the edge of the glass — those get a replacement recommendation, because a repair there either distorts your view or will not hold. We would rather lose the small job than sign our name to one that fails.
Every piece of glass on the vehicle
One crew, one visit: windshields, chips, door and back glass, and the camera recalibration that modern windshields require.
Windshield replacement
Cracked or shattered glass out, new glass in, at your driveway or workplace — with the safe drive-away time in writing.

Resin injection that stops a chip becoming a crack — a fraction of the cost of new glass, done at your kerb.

Smashed side glass replaced, the door cavity vacuumed shard-free, and the window running its full travel again.
See window replacement →Back glass
Rear windows replaced with defroster lines reconnected and the cargo area cleared of every pellet of glass.
See back glass →ADAS recalibration
Lane-keep and emergency-braking cameras recalibrated after glass work, so the safety systems aim true.

Home, office, gym or roadside — the van is the shop, and it parks where your day already is.

Tell us what broke
Send the form or call. Your VIN or plate gets us the exact glass for your vehicle, including whether it carries a camera, rain sensor or heating element.
We check your coverage first
Before anyone is dispatched we confirm what your policy covers and what your deductible actually is, so the price you hear is the price you pay. No claim is filed until you say go.
We come to you
Your driveway, your office lot, your job site — at no extra charge. We fit the glass, recalibrate the camera if there is one, and tell you when it's safe to drive.
What Florida drivers actually pay for auto glass
Florida's glass rules are unusual, and half of what customers have heard about them is out of date. Here is the current version, statutes named.
The windshield deductible rule is real — and specific
Florida Statute 627.7288 says that if you carry comprehensive coverage on a private passenger vehicle, your insurer cannot apply a deductible to windshield repair or replacement. That is the insurer's obligation, not a shop discount. It covers the windshield only — not door, vent, quarter or back glass — and it does not apply if you carry liability-only cover.
Door and back glass work differently
Every other piece of glass on the vehicle falls under your normal comprehensive deductible. If the deductible is higher than the cost of the work, paying cash is simply cheaper — we will tell you which side of that line your job lands on before anything is booked.
The gift-card pitch is now illegal here
Florida's 2023 auto glass law (SB 1002) prohibits offering gift cards, cash or any incentive in exchange for a windshield insurance claim, and ended assignment-of-benefits for glass work. A shop still making that offer is telling you something about how it operates. We do not, and never did.
No comprehensive cover? That is common
Plenty of South Florida drivers carry liability only. You get the same visit, the same glass options quoted for your exact VIN, and a written figure before we book — nothing is priced on this site because no honest number exists before we know the vehicle and the glass.
Maximum Glass Corp is an independent shop. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by or preferred by any insurance carrier; we bill carriers directly as a service to our customers.

What customers say
After calling around to several companies around south Florida, I finally got in touch with Juan. He made the process simple and easy all the way through from the second I got on the phone. I was able to set myself up on a payment plan with Afterpay financing and he was the only one who offered it!! Customer service A+ Jesus showed up prompt on time when he said he would and replaced the glass with lightning speed. I couldn’t believe how easy he made it look. I would definitely recommend Maximum Glass to anyone who needs windshield repair or replacement.
Maximum Glass exceeded my expectations. They were fast, reliable, and extremely pleasant to work with. The service was clean and professional from start to finish, and the quote they gave me was exactly what I paid — no runaround, no surprises. Everything was well thought out and handled efficiently. If you want straightforward, honest, and professional service, I highly recommend Maximum Glass.
Jesus was incredible, very efficient, quick, professional, and he provided me great feedback and steps on how to proceed. He removed the glass, and installed a new one while still talking me through what he was going to do, and what needed to be done. I would recommend 100% I called this morning at 8:30am, and by 10:30 he was here, it was all done by noon! AMAZING!!

What the warranty actually covers
"Lifetime warranty" is meaningless unless somebody writes down what it includes. Here's ours.
Covered, for as long as you own the vehicle
- Water leaks caused by our installation
- Wind noise caused by our installation
- Moulding and trim failures from our fitting
- Workmanship defects of any kind on our install
Not covered — and we'd rather say so up front
- New impact damage — a fresh rock is a fresh job
- Stress cracks spreading from damage that predates our work
- Defects in the glass itself, which carry the manufacturer's warranty
- Damage from a later collision or a break-in
Frequently asked
No, and a shop promising invisibility is overselling. A fresh, clean chip usually cures to a faint blemish most people stop noticing. The point of the repair is structural — it stops the crack running — and the cosmetic improvement is the bonus.
With comprehensive coverage in Florida, windshield repair falls under the same statute as replacement — FS 627.7288 — so no deductible applies. Many carriers actively prefer paying for a repair over a replacement later. Cash-pay is also modest; we quote it before booking.
It is the shortest visit we make — the resin cure is UV-driven and quick. We will give you a realistic window when we book, and because the van comes to you, the honest answer is that it takes almost none of your time.
