Windshield Chip & Crack Repair in Hillsboro, KS
The short answer
Most chips smaller than a quarter and cracks shorter than about six inches can be repaired instead of replaced, as long as you catch them before they spread.
You know the moment: a gravel truck ahead of you on US-56 flings a stone, there is a sharp tick, and now there is a little star sitting in your windshield. Left alone it will run, usually on the first cold morning or hot afternoon, but caught early it can often be filled in well under an hour for a great deal less than new glass. Send us a photo, bring it in, or we will come and get it.
Call or text (620) 416-0008. Describe the noise. We'll do the rest.

Text us which onesWhat windshield chip repair at Moxie actually looks like
We look before we promise anything. Where the damage is, how big it is and how deep it goes decide whether it can be repaired, and we would rather tell you honestly than take your money for a repair that will not hold.
We fill it under pressure, not with a dab of glue. We clean the break out, draw the air from it and force resin deep into the damage. The resin is then cured hard and polished flush, so the chip stops spreading and the glass gets most of its strength back.
We keep your factory seal. A repair never takes the glass out, which means no cure time and no camera recalibration, and you are usually back on the road in well under an hour.
We will be honest about how it looks. A repair will usually still be faintly visible if you go looking for it. What it will not do is grow across your windshield in January.

Windshield chip repair questions we hear every week
How do I know if it can be repaired instead of replaced?
As a rough guide, chips smaller than a quarter and cracks shorter than about six inches can usually be repaired. The damage also needs to stay clear of the edge of the glass and out of the spot right in front of the driver. The easiest way to know for sure is to text us a photo, and we will tell you which one you are dealing with.
Will the chip disappear completely?
It usually will not vanish entirely, and we would rather be upfront about that. A good repair removes most of the visible damage and gives the glass back most of its strength, but if you know where to look you will often still spot a faint mark. The real point of the repair is to stop the chip from spreading.
How long can I leave a chip before it becomes a crack?
There is honestly no safe answer, because it depends on the weather and on what the road does to your vehicle. A chip that has sat quietly for six months can run across the glass in one cold morning. If you have one, get it filled while it is still small, and text us a photo if you want a quick opinion first.
