Rock chip repair — before it spreads.
Sacramento freeways throw more gravel than almost anywhere in California — I-5, Business 80, and Highway 50 all funnel truck gravel into your windshield. Fix the chip in the first week and it stays a chip. Wait until summer heat expansion and it turns into a crack that costs ten times more.
Resin repair fills the chip, restores structural integrity, and stops the spread. Takes 20–30 minutes, done at your driveway. Insurance almost always covers it in California with no deductible.
- Fills chips up to a quarter
Bullseyes, combination breaks, star breaks — resin fills them all if they're smaller than a quarter and not directly in the driver's line of sight.
- 20–30 minutes on your driveway
No shop dropoff. I set up in your driveway, cure the resin with UV light, polish the surface. Done.
- Insurance covers it
California waives the deductible on comp glass repair. Text your carrier name and I'll file direct.
- Stops the spread
Cures the pit and restores load-bearing structure so temperature swings don't run the chip into a long crack.

Text a clear close-up photo of the chip. I'll confirm it's a repair candidate (not a replacement).

Book a slot. I come to you — usually same or next day.
- 3
I clean the pit, inject resin under pressure, cure with UV light.

Final polish. You drive right after — no cure wait like a full replacement.
Once you feel Central Valley summer heat — usually days to weeks. Thermal expansion runs the chip out into a crack that can't be repaired. Fix it in the first week for best results.
Cosmetically improved but not fully invisible. Look at it head-on and you may still see a small mark. Structurally it's back to normal.
California guidelines say chips directly in the driver's sightline should be replaced, not repaired — the small residual mark can catch light. I'll walk through options when you send the photo.
Yes — CA Insurance Code §11580.06 waives the deductible on comprehensive glass repair. That's the same rule that makes windshield replacement free. Chip repair is even easier.
Close-up shot of the chip is all I need. I'll tell you if it's a repair candidate and how soon I can be there.
