Most windshields are $250 to $450 installed, with ADAS-equipped and luxury glass running higher. The install is about an hour, then the urethane takes its cure time. Soundview to 1589 Macombs Road is fifteen to twenty minutes off-peak by way of the Bruckner and the Cross Bronx, and walk-ins are taken every day of the week.

There is a version of this job that takes forty minutes and a version that takes the time it should, and the difference only shows up months later. We cut the old windshield out, take the urethane back to a thin even layer, and prime any metal we have exposed so it cannot start corroding under the new bond. The fresh bead goes on at consistent height, and the glass is set in one movement rather than being adjusted afterward. New moldings and clips go on every time, because trim that has been pulled once never grips the same way twice.
Then the car waits. The safe drive-away time exists because urethane needs hours, not minutes, to reach the strength that lets a windshield brace the roof and back the passenger airbag properly. We honor it. If your car carries a camera behind the mirror, mention it at booking and the recalibration is done in-house, so one visit covers everything. Comprehensive claims are filed from our end if you are using insurance. And if you want a real number rather than a phone estimate, a two-minute look at the actual car will get you one.
“They did a great job. I went to get my passenger door window fixed. They were very nice and had a great deal . Same day service. I waited a while but it could be because it was on a Sunday and didn’t have all their staff.”

Soundview drivers put highway miles on their windshields whether they want to or not. The Bruckner Expressway is the spine of everything here, and merging on and off it near Story or Randall Avenue means sitting in the spray and grit thrown up by trucks at close quarters. Debris off that roadway lands on glass at speed, and a chip that starts on the Bruckner rarely stays a chip through a Bronx winter. Then there is the water. The neighborhood sits where the Bronx River meets the East River, and cars parked out toward Clason Point take salt-laden damp air night after night, which is unkind to any bond that was not made properly in the first place. Ours is made properly, on clean primed metal.
Same service, same price, other Bronx neighborhoods:
Take the Bruckner to the Cross Bronx and run west; come off around Jerome or University Avenue and Macombs Road is a couple of turns away. Fifteen to twenty minutes when the highway is behaving, longer in the afternoon peak. Coming early, close to our six o'clock opening, is by far the cleanest run and usually gets you the shortest wait once you arrive.
There is a lot at the shop, so the car sits with us rather than on the street. That is a large part of why people drive over instead of trying to arrange something closer to home. You will get a specific time for collection and the exact safe drive-away window, and most cars dropped off in the morning are ready the same day.
If your vehicle has lane keeping, adaptive cruise or automatic braking that reads through the windshield, then yes, the camera has to be recalibrated after the glass changes. We handle that here rather than sending you elsewhere. Tell us at booking so the right time is set aside, and we will confirm whether yours calls for a static or dynamic procedure.
