What we do

Auto glass work, done on East Columbia Avenue

Five things, done properly, with a lifetime workmanship warranty on every installation.

Windshield replacement

OEM-quality laminated glass, new moldings and fresh urethane — then a real safe drive-away time before you pull back onto Aramingo Avenue.

Chip & crack repair

A chip smaller than a quarter and out of your sightline is usually a 30-minute resin fill, not a new windshield. Comprehensive cover often pays for it in full.

Auto glass replacement

Quarter lights, vent glass, sunroof panels and back glass — matched to your year, make and model before you make the drive over.

Auto glass replacement →

Side & rear window replacement

The call we get most from Fishtown and Olde Richmond. Tempered glass shatters into thousands of pieces; we fit the new pane and vacuum every one of them out.

Mobile auto glass service

If the car is not safe to drive, we come to it — your block in East Kensington, a work lot in Bridesburg, wherever it is parked. Same glass, same warranty.

Repair or replace? Bring it in before the cold snap.

Most of the damage we see starts as one stone off a truck on I-95 or the Betsy Ross Bridge approach. Caught early, a chip is a resin fill and you keep the factory seal. Left through a Philadelphia freeze, the legs run and it becomes a full windshield. We will tell you honestly which one you are looking at — a $0 insurance repair earns more repeat business than an unnecessary windshield does.

Why us

The reasons drivers come back

The quote is the price

You hear a number on the phone and that is what you pay. Nothing gets added to the ticket while the car is in the bay.

Same day, most days

Call in the morning and the common windshields are on the shelf. Anything unusual is chased down the same day, not next week.

Lifetime workmanship warranty

Leaks, wind noise or trim trouble from our install are put right free, for as long as you own the vehicle.

We clean up the glass

After a break-in every shard comes out — seats, carpet, door cards and the channel under the window.

How it works

Three steps, no surprises

  1. Tell us the vehicle

    Year, make, model and the VIN if you have it — or use the instant quote. Mention a rain sensor or a heated wiper park; it changes which glass we order.

  2. Shop or mobile

    Drive to 1028 East Columbia Avenue, off Frankford Avenue, or we come to you across Fishtown, Port Richmond, Kensington and Frankford.

  3. Drive away safe

    We fit it, give you the real safe drive-away time, vacuum the car out and stand behind the work for as long as you own it.

About

A river-wards shop, not a call centre

Auto Glass Installed sits at 1028 East Columbia Avenue in Fishtown, between Frankford Avenue and Aramingo Avenue and a couple of minutes from the Girard Avenue interchange. That location decides a lot about how the work goes: most people drive over or walk in rather than book a week out, and a fair number arrive the morning after a window went in overnight.

The river wards are hard on glass. Trucks throw stones off I-95 and off the Betsy Ross Bridge approach, the freight crossings and torn-up blocks around Aramingo shake a chip into a crack faster than smooth road does, and narrow street parking through Fishtown, Olde Richmond and East Kensington is where most side windows get broken. None of that is unusual to us — it is most of what comes through the door.

So the shop runs simple. You get a price before the work starts, the glass is matched to the car before you make the trip, and the interior is vacuumed before you get the keys back. If a chip can be filled instead of replaced, we say so.

Reviews

What Philadelphia drivers say

4.6/5 From 94 Google reviews of Auto Glass Installed. Read them on Google →

“My car was broken into and one window was completely shattered. Rich gave me a quote right away and was able to replace it the next morning at a very reasonable price. He also cleaned up all the glass that I didn’t get a chance to clean up before dropping off my car. I had a great experience and I would definitely recommend using his business for window replacements”

— Katie Muchnick

“Rich is amazing! Helped me with a broken window. He was able to get me in same day and did beautiful work at an incredible price point. I literally tell everyone now to go to him if they need anything done.”

— Mae Meler

“These guys do great work, at very reasonable prices. Be sure to pay in cash, great turn around times as well.”

FAQ

Questions we get on the phone

Will my insurance cover the windshield?

Usually yes. With comprehensive coverage, glass claims are often fully covered — many chip repairs cost $0 out of pocket. We bill your insurer directly and handle the paperwork, so most Philadelphia drivers never touch a form.

How long does a windshield replacement take?

Plan on about an hour of work plus the adhesive's safe drive-away time. Call in the morning and you're almost always back on the road the same day.

What areas do you serve?

All of Philadelphia — including Fishtown, Northern Liberties, Port Richmond, Olde Richmond — plus nearby Center City, Camden, Cheltenham. In-shop and mobile.

Can you come to my home or job?

Yes — our mobile unit covers Philadelphia, Center City and the surrounding area. Driveway, workplace lot, or street parking: same glass, same lifetime workmanship warranty as in-shop.

Can a chip be repaired instead of replacing the glass?

Often, yes. If the chip is smaller than a quarter and not in the driver's direct sightline, a 30-minute resin injection stops it spreading — a fraction of the cost of new glass, and often free with insurance. Don't wait: one pothole on the Betsy Ross Bridge can turn a chip into a full crack.
