East Bench Local Service Q&A
Where on the East Bench do you perform mobile repairs? Everywhere! We frequently service the Harvard-Yale (Yalecrest) area, Bonneville Hills, Wasatch Hollow, and the Foothill/Sunnyside neighborhoods. Whether you’re at the University of Utah campus or home near Donner Park, we come to you.
Will a repair affect my car's safety sensors or cameras (ADAS)? Actually, a repair is the best thing for your ADAS! When you replace a windshield, the camera mounted behind the mirror must be recalibrated. By choosing [Rock Chip Repair] or [Long Crack Repair], the camera is never moved, and your safety systems like Lane Keep Assist and Collision Warning stay perfectly calibrated.
How long does a mobile repair take near Foothill Drive? Most [Rock Chip Repairs] are completed in 30 minutes. If you have a [Long Crack], it may take 45–60 minutes. We can perform the work in your driveway or office parking lot while you go about your day.
Do you charge a travel fee for the 84108 or 84109 zip codes? No. The East Bench is a primary service zone for Cracks N Chips. There are no mobile fees for residents in the Harvard-Yale, Foothill, or East Bench areas.
What should I do if my windshield gets wet before the appointment? For the best results, the damage needs to be dry. If it’s raining or snowing at your home near St. Mary’s or Canyon Rim, we can perform the repair as long as the car is in a garage. If the chip is wet, we may need to reschedule to ensure the resin bonds perfectly.
Will my insurance cover the cost for East Bench residents? Yes. Most insurance companies (including those common in the 84105 and 84108 areas) cover the full cost of a repair with $0 deductible. We can help you check if your insurance will pay for the repair to save you from a future replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions about Windshield Repair
1. Why is it so important to get a small rock chip repaired?
A small chip might not seem like a big deal, but it's a weak point in your windshield's glass. Temperature changes, like using your defroster on a chilly Salt Lake morning, or even hitting a pothole can cause that small chip to spread into a large crack overnight. A proactive rock chip repair is quick, affordable, and saves you from the much higher cost of a full windshield replacement.
2. How does your mobile rock chip repair service work on the East Bench?
Our mobile rock chip repair service is designed for your convenience. You simply call or text us to schedule an appointment, and we drive to your location anywhere on the East Bench (zip codes 84102, 84103, 84108, 84109). We perform the entire repair on-site, whether you're at home or work, typically in under 30 minutes.
3. Can my long crack be repaired, or do I need a new windshield?
If you have a single crack that is 16 inches or shorter, a windshield repair is very often possible! Our advanced crack repair technique restores the structural integrity of the glass and makes the crack much less visible. This is a safe and cost-effective alternative to replacement, as long as the crack hasn't reached the edge of the windshield.
4. How can I tell if I need a windshield repair or a full replacement?
Generally, a windshield repair is the best option for rock chips about the size of a quarter and for single cracks up to 16 inches. A replacement is usually necessary if the damage is directly in the driver's line of sight, if the crack has spread to the edge of the windshield, or if there are multiple long cracks. We can help you assess the damage over the phone.
5. What happens if it rains on the day of my appointment?
Because the damaged area must be completely dry for the resin to cure properly, we cannot perform a repair in the rain, snow, or frost. If there's inclement weather, we will happily reschedule for the next clear day. If you have a garage or covered parking where the windshield can stay dry, we can often proceed with the repair as scheduled.
6. How long does a typical mobile repair take?
A single rock chip repair is very fast and usually takes between 20 to 30 minutes from start to finish. A crack repair is a more detailed process and can take between 45 to 60 minutes, depending on the length and complexity of the crack. You can typically drive your car safely as soon as the repair is complete.
