Hoover Windshield Repair

Updated 2/3: the crack has now spread even further. I’ve attached an image showing it. I had a tiny crack from a rock (1/4 the size of a pencil eraser). I always try and immediately get those filled (mind you I just had a new windshield installed within the past 6 months). I got it filled and noticed there was still a tiny vein/crack that wasn’t filled. I assumed it wasn’t an issue since he didn’t fill it and wasn’t really noticeable. I kept my eye on it though. A couple of months later I see from the exact spot he didn’t fill, had extended further. I went back and he said no problem I see what you’re talking about. He worked on it and caused a larger crack (while working on it). He then seemed to backtrack and say it didn’t have anything to do with the original crack that wasn’t filled correctly (claimed it was a stress crack). He refunded me just the $80 I paid, and left me with a crack twice the size of when I arrived. Today it fully cracked to the top of my windshield. I imagine if I had never gone to get it filled, I would have been just left with a teeny tiny crack. I now need a whole new windshield (the crack is directly over the drivers side). This is incredibly frustrating. (The circled picture shows where he drilled another hole when I came back-which then has led to the crack above and below)

I deleted my five star review because this place no longer exists. What's in this location is now "Champion Windshield Repair." It now has a red awning instead of a blue awning. I was informed that the "Hoover Windshield Repair" is just basically a hijacked website, that doesn't do any real business. Look up Champion Windshield Repair instead. I learned all all of this today, as I showed up to get my windshield repaired. They did a good job at a reasonable price, as always, but it was NOT "Hoover" windshield repair.

We were driving through and got a bad windshield crack. Bill gave us directions on a place easy to find so we could meet him as we were unfamiliar with the area. He gave us a great, more than fair price and did an outstanding job! He made us feel safe driving the 1000 miles back home. He is warm and friendly while being professional.

The owner of this place does a very good, reasonably-priced work on windshield chips, and he offers a life-time guarantee for his work. I had a chip on my windshield about 5-6 years ago that he repaired, and when it started becoming more visible about 3 years ago I went back to him. He did a touch-up on that chip for no extra charge! So, obviously when I got another windshield chip a few weeks ago, I went back. He fixed the new chip for 40$, and did another touch up on the old one for free. I can't recommend him enough!

I noticed a crack in the front windshield about the size of a quarter. I looked online and found several positive reviews for this business. I am now delighted to add mine. I was given a realistic expectation of the repair, that it would be fixed but some imperfection would be seen. The repair took less than 30 minutes and I feel that $40 was an excellent price for the service provided.
