The range is $200 to $500 and the timeline is a day for most Gravesend jobs: door panes, vent windows, quarter lights, sunroof panels, back glass. You are five to eight minutes away along Avenue U. Call with the year, make and model and we will source it and quote it.

The old street grid around Village Road and Van Sicklen Street does not line up with the rest of Brooklyn, and the angles it creates are unkind to parked cars. A turn taken too tight takes a mirror, and the piece behind that mirror is often the front vent glass. Under the elevated F train on McDonald Avenue there is the other classic: something drops from above onto a roof panel or a rear window. Neither one is a windshield problem, and both have to be ordered rather than pulled off a rack.
Because Gravesend is a mile and a half west of us, a lot of these customers are regulars who call before they drive over. That is the right order. We take the year, make, model and trim, find the exact pane, quote inside the $200 to $500 range for most glass, and give you a day. Then the car comes in, gets the right piece with new seals and clips, and leaves with the dash, vents and cowl vacuumed out. The old glass is recycled and the workmanship is covered for life. On a back window we test the defroster grid and the brake lamp in the glass before the trim goes back, and a milky lens or a dead bulb gets looked at while the car is here rather than on another day.
“Charlie and Oscar are the best...Mario tinted my windows today..came out great... charlie has extensive knowledge with all types of car issues...Oscar will troubleshoot most electrical problems and much more...one of the last mom and pop…”

Five to eight minutes along Avenue U, Avenue Z or Kings Highway is barely a trip, which is why Gravesend gets our fastest turnaround outside our own blocks. If a piece is available locally, a car dropped in the morning is often finished by early afternoon. What we will not do is take a vehicle in before the glass is confirmed, because a car with a hole in it sitting in our lot helps nobody. Parking on the Avenue U strip is competitive enough that leaving a damaged car at a meter for two days is a bad plan. The vehicles themselves skew toward older sedans and small work vans belonging to trades who live nearby, and van glass is the category where a phone call turns into a two-day wait if the body code is read wrong. So we read it carefully.

Sometimes, if the piece is already here and the schedule has room. More often the sensible plan is dropping the car and running your errands on Avenue U, since a proper job means stripping the door card, fitting the pane, testing the regulator and vacuuming the interior. That is a few hours, not twenty minutes. We call the moment it is ready.
It is, and it is one of the trickier pieces to pin down, because vent glass differs between trims and between door types. We identify it from the vehicle rather than a catalog picture, replace the glass along with its seal and any clips the impact broke, and check the door hardware behind it. Price normally sits at the lower end of that $200 to $500 range.
