Reckon on $250 to $500 and roughly two hours all in, an hour of fitting plus an hour before the car is safe to drive. Full-size vans fit in the bay and cost the same as cars unless the glass itself is a specialty pane. From 13th Avenue it is five miles, eighteen to twenty minutes.

Big vehicles are the pattern here. Minivans and full-size passenger vans do the school runs, the shopping and the family trips, and their windshields are large, upright and expensive to get wrong. A tall flat pane catches more stones than a raked sports car screen, and it flexes more, so a chip left over a winter tends to run further and faster.
The good news is that a van is the same job with more glass in it. Pricing follows the pane rather than the badge, so most stay inside $250 to $500 and a good number land at $250 to $450. Fitting takes about an hour with two people on the larger panes, and the cure period is roughly an hour afterwards. Vans with lane cameras get recalibrated before they leave. New moldings and clips are standard, and the interior gets vacuumed properly, which on a family vehicle means the seat tracks and the third row as well as the dash. If comprehensive covers it, we bill the carrier and you sign one form. Booster seats and third-row headrests stay where they are; nothing needs stripping out of the cabin before the vehicle comes in.

Double-parking on 13th Avenue is a way of life and a genuine obstacle to mobile glass work. A technician needs an hour beside the vehicle and then the car needs an hour standing still, which is not what a commercial block delivers on a weekday afternoon. That is why most Borough Park work happens at the shop. Come north on Ocean Parkway then west, or take Coney Island Avenue up to Kings Highway and across, about eighteen minutes either way. Since these are high vehicles doing early starts and late returns in winter, we also look hard at the lighting. A van whose lenses have gone matt is throwing a wide, weak glow rather than a beam, and on the residential blocks off 50th Street that is where children step out between parked cars.

No, but clearing the dash and the front footwells helps. Glass comes out in fragments and we vacuum the whole front of the vehicle, which goes faster when it is not being done around booster seats and shopping bags. Anything valuable is better taken with you, purely so nothing gets moved around while the trim is off.
Yes, and it is usually the sensible way. Bring the first at opening and the second an hour later, and both are typically done well before we close at five. Tell us both vehicles when you call 646-386-2253 so the glass for each is on hand rather than one of them waiting on a delivery.
