Holland, Michigan · Questions
Auto glass questions, answered.
The things people actually call and ask, from what a windshield costs in Michigan to whether we really do boats. If yours is not here, call 616-396-3487 and ask.
Where is Glass Enterprise located?
4270 58th St, Holland, MI 49423. That stretch of road is signed as both 58th St and Blue Star Highway, so both point to the same shop. Google Maps lists it as 58th St. See directions and hours.
What are your hours?
Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Closed Saturday and Sunday.
What kinds of vehicles do you do glass for?
Cars and trucks, semi-trucks and fleets, motorhomes and RVs, boats, heavy equipment like tractors, loaders, graders, and excavators, and antique and classic cars. See specialty glass.
Do you offer mobile service?
Yes. Technicians can come to your home or workplace across the service area. That said, most work is done at the shop on 58th St, which has a waiting room and is usually the fastest way through.
How much does a windshield replacement cost in Michigan?
It depends on the vehicle. Year, make, and model set the price, and it goes up if the windshield carries a camera, sensor, heating, or acoustic layer, because that glass costs more and the camera has to be recalibrated afterward. Call 616-396-3487 with the details for a real number, not a range.
Is Michigan a free windshield replacement state?
No. Michigan does not require insurers to replace glass with no deductible the way Florida, Kentucky, and South Carolina do. If you carry comprehensive coverage, glass is usually covered minus your deductible, and sometimes the deductible is waived. Bring your insurer and policy and we'll tell you what your claim covers.
Can a chip be repaired instead of replacing the whole windshield?
Often, yes. A small rock chip can usually be filled before it spreads, which is faster and cheaper than a replacement. Once a crack starts to run, replacement is normally the only option. Michigan winters turn chips into cracks fast, so it's worth calling early. See chip repair.
How long does a windshield replacement take?
The install is usually done within an hour. After that the urethane that bonds the glass needs time to cure before the vehicle is safe to drive, typically about an hour depending on the product and the weather. We tell you your safe drive-away time before you leave.
Do you use OEM glass?
We use original-equipment glass when the vehicle calls for it and quality aftermarket glass that meets the same safety standards when it doesn't. If your windshield has a camera, sensor, or heating element, we match the glass to those features.
My windshield has a camera. Can you recalibrate it?
Yes. Many newer windshields carry a forward-facing camera for lane keeping and automatic braking, plus rain or light sensors. Those systems have to be recalibrated after the glass is replaced so they read the road correctly. We do that here with Autel OEM-approved equipment. Mention the year, make, and model when you call. See ADAS calibration.
Do you warranty your work?
Yes, two ways. Installs carry a warranty on our workmanship and on leaks for as long as you own the vehicle, so wind noise or water where it should not be comes back to us. Replacement glass carries a warranty on defects in the glass itself.
Do you handle insurance claims?
Yes. We help you get the claim set up, and from there we handle it, through the paperwork. Call with your insurer and policy details and we'll walk you through what is covered before the glass is ordered. See insurance claims.
Does insurance cover windshield chip repair?
Often, and often with little or no deductible, because insurers would rather pay for a small repair now than a full windshield later. Bring your insurer and policy and we'll tell you what your claim covers first.
Do you replace side and rear glass, not just windshields?
Yes. Door glass, back glass, quarter glass, vent glass, and side mirrors on cars, trucks, and vans, along with windshields. See side and rear glass.
Can you do glass for an antique or classic?
Often, yes, and it's worth asking before you give up on it. Old and one-of-a-kind vehicles are a real part of what this shop does. Tell us the vehicle and we'll tell you straight whether we can do it. One customer wrote that we replaced a windshield after other shops told her it couldn't be done.
Do you really do boats and heavy equipment?
Yes, along with semi-trucks, RVs, and fleets. It's a real part of the shop, not a line on a list. See specialty glass.
Still need a price?
