The price list does not change when we come to you: $250–$450 for a fitted windshield, $200–$500 for door, quarter or back glass, $60–$130 for a chip. Feasibility is what changes, and it comes down to a clear car's width of ground on the damaged side plus a dry enough spell to bond glass. Give 215-608-1108 your nearest corner and tell us where the car is standing, and you will know inside that call rather than after a van has been sent.

The van carries the glass, the urethane, the power and the vacuum, so the tools are never the constraint. Room is. A windshield has to come off the rack, take its primer and be walked onto the car in one controlled movement with a person at each end of the panel, which needs a clear car's width along the working side and space to stand at the front corner without standing in traffic. On a one-way block off Belgrade or Almond with cars nose to tail and a box truck coming through, that room does not exist, and the honest answer is to book the bay instead. What does work: a driveway or a rear yard, a shared or office lot, a wide enough alley, a corner spot on a quiet street. Loading docks and garage spaces behind the buildings in Northern Liberties and along Delaware Avenue are some of the easiest addresses in the whole coverage area.
Weather is the second gate, and it is the one people argue with. Urethane needs a dry, clean bond line: rain landing on a primed pinchweld ruins the primer, and wind carrying grit and road salt onto a fresh bead means the drive-away strength you were quoted is a guess. Cold slows everything down, so the same job outdoors in February carries a longer wait before the car can move than it would indoors. Chip repairs are fussier still, because resin will not draw properly into a break that is wet or cold, and a heat gun on a windy street is no substitute for a roof. Side and door glass copes best of the three, since tempered panes are clamped into channels rather than bonded, which is why a break-in on a wet Tuesday can usually still be handled where the car stands. We watch the forecast against your slot and phone you if it turns.
“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”
Mobile slots run inside shop hours, 8 to 5 Monday through Friday, and there are no weekend calls. A Friday morning phone call is worth a lot more than a Friday afternoon one.
Mobile is not a premium service here, it is a different set of constraints, so it is worth choosing on the merits. A chip fill on a car already parked in an office lot in Center City beats driving to Fishtown and waiting. A windshield on a work van standing in a yard off Aramingo, where losing half a day costs real money, is the same call. A windshield on a permit block in East Kensington in February is not: the technician is working around traffic and the adhesive is working against the cold, and what comes out of that is a bond nobody can stand behind. Better to settle it on a phone call than to find out with the glass already off the rack. Describe the spot, the damage and the forecast, and the answer comes back straight.
Say where the car actually stands — behind the house, in a company lot, on a wide alley, or wedged mid-block on a permit street — and which side of it is broken. That detail settles whether the van comes out or you come in. 215-608-1108.
The part is matched to the VIN and ordered before the visit, and you get a time slot plus a straight answer about whether the forecast will hold. If it turns, we call and move you rather than improvise on your block.
Bonded glass needs its safe drive-away time before the car moves, and outdoors in the cold that number is longer. You get it in minutes so the car is not pulled into traffic early. Tempered side glass has no wait.

No, and no trip charge is bolted on. A windshield done on your driveway is quoted off the same $250–$450 range as one done indoors. What we will not do is send a van to a spot that cannot be worked safely and then bill you for finding out: if the space is wrong you hear it on the phone, along with an offer of a slot at 1028 E Columbia Avenue instead.
No. Water on a primed pinchweld ruins the bond, and the whole point of the safe drive-away time is that the number means something. If the day turns we move the appointment or move you into the bay, where the temperature and the cleanliness are known. A chip repair has the same problem: the break has to be dry for the resin to draw in.
The primary list runs from Fishtown out through Kensington, Port Richmond, Bridesburg and Frankford, ten neighborhoods in all, and the van also crosses into Center City, up into Montgomery and Bucks counties and over the river into New Jersey when the job justifies the run. The service areas page has the full list. If your block is not on it, call 215-608-1108 anyway — the answer depends on the street more than the map.
Two options usually work. Move the car to a lot, a driveway, an alley or a quiet corner within a few blocks for the length of the appointment, and the van comes to you. Or drive it to 1028 E Columbia Avenue and use the bay, which is the better answer anyway on a cold or wet day, since the cure happens indoors at a known temperature.
