How Long Does It Take To Replace A Windshield?

If your windshield glass has broken or simply worn out over time, it needs to be replaced. So, how long does it take to replace a windshield? On average, this repair should take no more than 60 minutes of work. Several other factors, though, can cause the replacement to take more or less time in the shop.

WINDSHIELD REPLACEMENTS

When performed by automotive professionals, a windshield replacement should be completed within 60 minutes. But, this doesn’t exactly mean you will be in and out. Experts recommend that you do not drive your vehicle with a new windshield for at least another hour. So, a total of two hours from start to finish would be a good estimate for any customer. Any car with passenger side airbags will take a bit longer on the windshield replacement. When this is the case, the adhesive needs to be much stronger, taking extra time to cure. Professionals should always estimate how long the repair will take and go over any needs or questions you may have.

  • Manual labor: 30-60 minutes
  • Let car sit with new windshield before driving: 60 minutes
  • Estimated total time in the shop: 120 minutes (2 hours)

REPAIR INSTEAD OF REPLACE?

Yes, it is possible to repair your windshield instead of a full replacement. Small chips and cracks suggest that repairing the windshield is a better idea than replacing it. It all depends on the size of the cracks in your windshield, though. For instance, most automotive experts can only repair cracks and chips that are no larger than three inches long. Repair options and amount of manual labor all vary based on the type of car and the damage. In most cases replacing the windshield altogether may be the safest and cheapest option.
