Chip repair! A new top-of-the-line repair kit from Glasweld arrived last week and we finally found time to play with it today. 3 jobs complete; each looking better than the last. Repair is more of an art than replacement but we get quite a few inquiries about it so we added the tools to our arsenal.

We've been trying to replace the windshield in this truck for two months but the customer simply couldn't take it out of service. It finally ended up on a job site in town today so we took the show to it! And yes, all 3 of us rammed our heads into that ladder rack at some point.

It's been a few weeks of radio silence on here but we've been working our butts off! The week before last had us attending Auto Glass University in Nashville. We were expecting 5 days of sitting in a class room but that wasn't the case at all. We logged around 50 hrs of both class room and hands-on training in 5 days. We learned new techniques, used new tools and materials, and earned multiple training certifications from major manufacturers. We spent last week getting caught up on jobs and we're getting back to a normal schedule this week. Fun stuff!

Please take a moment and celebrate our newest Graduates! It is our pleasure to present the AGU Class of September 2026!

We cannot thank our fine friends at Carlex enough for making their facilities accessible and just plain comfortable.

Their dedication to safety and quality was not lost on our crew as everywhere we went, we were met with smiles and hospitality.

We were able to cater (literally) to our students desire to know more and execute the demands of our evolving job at the most intentional levels.

It is our honor to be chosen as your partners throughout the rest of your careers and we are so proud to have you become a thread in our patch.

For those who are curious about your own technical journey, lean in.

We are almost at maximum capacity for our class in the very same facility October 19-23.

See you in Nashville!

Had the high mileage club show up this past week. A Town and Country with 200k took a skateboard to the back glass, a Ranger with 300k had several rock chips crack together, and a tree limb fell on an ex-taxi Cobalt that had 499k miles!

Glass services means more than just replacing glass. This aftermarket regulator gave up the ghost after about a year so we replaced it with a used OE unit. The owner was concerned that the glass had shattered when it fell into the door but they're surprisingly resilient!

This Hot Rod Lincoln outran its back glass! The owner drove an hour to get to us after we were able to quickly source a used glass the day after he contacted us. We got him back on the road at 1/3 the price of other quotes he received!

Tractor troubles? A local farmer contacted us after his Case caught a shattered glass sitting by a field over night. The cause was suspicious but the fix was fast!

Some cars are just deer magnets; Caravans seem to be at the top of that list. This windshield was worse than most to cut out due to the deer imprint but it turned out pretty good.
