  • Preparation & Protection

    We begin with a complete vehicle inspection, placing protective coverings to prevent damage and maintain cleanliness. Moldings, clips, wipers, cowling, and the damaged glass are carefully removed.

  • Adhesion & Installation

    Using the Full Cut-Out method, we remove old adhesive to the manufacturer-specified thickness. We then apply high-performance urethane adhesive and install a windshield that meets or exceeds Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.

  • Testing & Cleanup

    Our technicians test all affected connections, including heating elements, antennas, and washer hoses, ensuring proper function. We vacuum debris and reinstall wipers, cowling, clips, and moldings, replacing parts as needed.

  • Final Inspection & Customer Review

    The process concludes with a thorough vehicle inspection, the Portland Glass seal of confidence, and safe drive-away time recommendations. Care instructions and warranty details are reviewed to ensure your satisfaction.

With over 75 years of experience, we uphold the industry’s best glass practices to ensure safety, quality, and customer satisfaction in every service we provide.
