Expert Back Glass Replacement
Restore your vehicle's security and visibility with a fast, professional back glass replacement. We service all makes and models of cars, trucks, and SUVs with OEM-quality glass and a leak-proof seal.
When is Back Glass Replacement Necessary?
Unlike a windshield, which is laminated, your vehicle's back glass is tempered. When it sustains damage, it's designed to shatter into small pieces, meaning repair is not an option. Replacement is required if your back glass is:
Completely shattered from an impact or accident.
Cracked, chipped, or pitted.
Damaged due to vandalism or a break-in.
Missing entirely, leaving your vehicle exposed.
Our Back Glass Replacement Process
When you call us for back glass replacement, here's exactly what we do. No surprises, just honest work done right.
Assess Damage & Remove Old Glass
We start by taking a close look at what we're dealing with. Then we carefully remove every piece of shattered glass from your vehicle's frame and interior. Your glass guys know how to do this without making a bigger mess.
Prepare the Vehicle Frame
The pinch weld gets cleaned completely — we're talking every bit of old adhesive and debris removed. If the surface isn't perfect, the new glass won't seal right. We don't cut corners here.
Apply Premium Adhesive
We use industry-approved urethane adhesive that creates a weatherproof, permanent bond. This isn't the cheap stuff. The adhesive we choose will keep your back glass secure for years.
Set the New Back Glass
Your new back glass goes in with factory precision. We reconnect defroster lines and any other connections so everything works like it should. Let's see if we can get it right the first time.
Cure and Clean
The adhesive needs time to cure properly — we don't rush this part. Once it's set, we clean up your vehicle inside and out. You'll drive away with everything working and looking right.

Back Glass Replacement FAQs
Most back glass replacements take 1-2 hours. Depends on your truck model and whether we need to remove interior panels to access the glass properly. When you call us, let's see if your specific truck needs any extra steps. We don't rush the job — better to take an extra 30 minutes than have you come back because something wasn't done right.
Usually yes, if you have comprehensive coverage. Your deductible applies though. We work directly with most insurance companies and handle the paperwork for you. No surprises on what you'll pay out of pocket — we'll verify your coverage before we start work. Some policies even waive the deductible for glass claims.
Absolutely. One year guarantee on our installation work. If the glass comes loose or leaks because of something we did wrong, we fix it free. The glass itself comes with a manufacturer warranty too. We don't do salesy extended warranty pitches — just honest coverage on our work.
We handle most truck models, but some older or specialty trucks can be tricky to source glass for. When you call us, have your year, make, and model ready. We'll tell you straight up if we can get the glass and how long it'll take. No point in wasting your time if we can't help.
Short term, yes — but don't make it a permanent fix. Plastic sheeting blocks your rear view and can come loose at highway speeds. Plus water will eventually find its way in. If you're driving with plastic, keep speeds down and get it replaced within a few days. Your glass guys are here when you're ready to let's get it fixed properly.
