Back Glass Replacement Q and A
What
are the typical questions asked when calling to receive
a price quote?
The year, make, and model
of your vehicle? If you are unsure check on your insurance
card and or the driver's side door jam will show the
year. Model type is typically located on either the
rear or side of your vehicle.
How
much will it cost for my back window to be replaced?
Does your back glass have
an antenna, heated/defroster, spoiler attachment, rear
window wiper, side moldings and or lift gate? The color
of the glass is typically privacy tint from which is
darker or green tint that would be the same color as
your front windshield. All of these will factors will
determine the overall cost of the back glass replacement.
Do
you offer mobile or onsite service?
No all of our work is performed here at our shop
in a controlled environment out of the elements of rain, snow, sun and wind.
How
long will it take to replace my back glass?
Depending on the type of vehicle you drive it may
take 2 to 3 hours to replace including the Safe-Drive-Away-Time.
What
does Safe-Drive-Away-Time mean?
The time it takes for
your vehicle to be driven safely after the back glass
has been replaced. Here at Able Auto Glass in Houston,
TX we document the time the glass is set and only use
Adco Titan Pro 1 with a one-hour SDAT.

Are
your technicians certified?
Our auto glass technicians are certified by the
National Auto Glass Association and by our auto glass adhesive auto manufacturer Adco.
What
is the difference between other companies that offer "In
House Certifications and the National Auto Glass Certification?"
While we cannot say much about "In House Certification,"
the National Auto Glass Association is an industry recognized organization.
What
is your warranty for back glass or back window replacement?
We offer a lifetime warranty against leakage when
rust is not present on the pinchweld or near the seal.
What
brand of glass will you use on my back glass replacement?
Most customers want the best price in which the brands
may vary; but by your request we will install dealer
or an OEM brand glass. In some cases the OEM brand
price may only vary $50 to $100 and we will quote
these too.
Will
you vacuum up the broken glass?
We will use a high power 6.5 Peak HP Shop Vac with
16 gallons to remove most of the broken glass on the
floor, seats and either the cargo area or back dash.

types of payments do you accept?
We accept American Express, Cash, Discover, Google
