FAQs

How much money can I earn as a windshield repair tech?

Rock chips are EVERYWHERE. It’s estimated that 1 in 3 cars on the road are in need of glass repair.

Once you’re up and running, a full-time tech can easily complete over 10 repairs per day and spend less than 20 minutes on each job.

When it comes to profit, expect to spend just a few dollars on supplies per repair and charge customers on average $65 per repair.

Wait…I thought broken windshields had to be replaced?

Most rock chips and cracks can be repaired. As a tech, offering windshield repair is cheaper, faster, and easier than windshield replacement.

Windshields are also becoming more complex and expensive to replace. With driver assistance sensors built in behind the glass, the cost of replacing windshields continues to rise.

Bottom line? Choosing windshield repair is often the most affordable and convenient choice for consumers.

It is hard to learn windshield repair?

No experience in glass repair? No problem. GlasWeld’s professional windshield repair tools and training make it possible to learn how to repair rock chips after a single day of practice.

Why should I start a windshield repair business over another business?

If you want to be your own boss and enjoy work-life balance, starting a windshield repair business is a great option. Windshield repair is in high demand, offers great margins, and is super affordable to start – usually less than $1,000.

Whether you’re looking for a side hustle or a full-time gig, you can shape your windshield repair business to match your goals.
