Types of Rock Chip Damage We Fix
Austin roads from construction corridors to hill country highways produce all kinds of impact damage. Here’s what our technicians see most often:
- Bullseye Chip — Circular impact from a direct hit. Very common, almost always repairable.
- Star Break — Cracks radiating outward from the impact point. Repairable when the legs are short.
- Half-Moon / Partial Bullseye — Crescent-shaped chip from an angled strike. Usually straightforward.
- Combination Break — Mixed crack types from one impact. More complex but often still repairable.
- Edge Crack — Crack starting at the windshield's border. Structural needs prompt assessment.
- Floater Crack —Crack in the center of the glass away from edges. Repairability depends on length.
- Surface Pit — Shallow ding that hasn't fully penetrated the glass. Usually quick to fix.
WHAT WE DO
Our Rock Chip Repair Process
Free Damage Assessment
We examine the chip's size, depth, type, and location to determine whether repair or replacement is the right call. We'll always be straight with you about what we find.
Upfront Quote
You get a clear, honest price before we do anything. No surprises, no add-ons. If insurance covers it, we handle that conversation too.
Professional Resin Injection
We inject optical-grade resin directly into the chip, filling the void completely and bonding the glass layers back together to stop any further spread.
UV Curing & Surface Polish
The resin is cured under UV light to full hardness, then polished until the surface is smooth and clear. Most repairs are nearly invisible to the eye.
Final Quality Check
We inspect for structural soundness and optical clarity before calling the job done. You can drive away immediately with no waiting required.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does rock chip repair in Austin cost?
Most repairs range from $50–$150 depending on chip type and size. With comprehensive auto insurance, it’s often fully covered at zero cost to you. We provide free estimates before any work begins.
Can every chip be repaired, or do some need full replacement?
Chips smaller than a quarter and cracks under six inches are usually repairable. Chips at the windshield’s edge, in the driver’s direct sightline, or that have penetrated both glass layers may need replacement. Our technician will give you an honest recommendation either way.
How long does Austin windshield chip repair take?
Most repairs take 20–30 minutes. Our mobile technicians come to you with no drop-off, no shop wait.
Will the chip be completely invisible after repair?
In most cases the repair is barely noticeable after UV curing and polishing. Very deep or complex chips may leave a faint mark, but structural integrity is fully restored. We set accurate expectations before we start.
Do you repair rock chips on side windows too?
Yes. Texas Reliable Auto Glass handles chips on both windshields and side windows. Our technician assesses the damage on arrival and gives you a clear recommendation.
