Introduction
If your windshield is cracked or damaged, getting it fixed shouldn’t mean rearranging your whole day. That’s where mobile windshield replacement comes in. Instead of driving to a shop, a technician comes directly to your home, office, or wherever your vehicle is parked. It’s fast, efficient, and ideal for busy drivers.
At Boulevard Auto Glass, we offer mobile windshield replacement in Calgary for just $35 extra within city limits—a small fee that saves you a trip and hours of your time. Here’s everything you need to know about how it works and why it might be the right choice for you.
What Is Mobile Windshield Replacement?
Mobile windshield replacement is exactly what it sounds like: a technician comes to you to replace your damaged glass. You get professional auto glass service without the hassle of sitting in a shop or taking time off work. Whether you’re at home, at the office, or parked at a job site, the entire process happens wherever your vehicle is located.
It’s especially useful if your windshield damage makes driving unsafe or if cold Alberta winters make you hesitant to travel. You’ll still get the same high-quality materials, professional installation, and even ADAS recalibration when required.
How Mobile Windshield Replacement Works: Step-by-Step
If you’ve never booked a mobile windshield replacement before, here’s exactly what happens from start to finish:
- Request a Quote or Book an Appointment
You can call us or book online. Just share your vehicle make, model, and year, along with details of the damage. We’ll confirm glass availability and schedule a time that works for you. - Technician Arrives at Your Location
We show up at your chosen location—home, office, or anywhere your vehicle is safely parked. We charge $35 for mobile service within Calgary, which covers travel and setup. Most customers find that a small price to pay for a big time-saver. - Assessment and Prep Work
Our technician confirms the damage and ensures the correct glass is on hand. The work area is prepped to protect your vehicle’s interior and exterior. - Removing the Damaged Windshield
We safely remove the broken or cracked windshield without damaging surrounding components like trim or paint. - Cleaning and Priming the Frame
The area where the new glass will sit is cleaned thoroughly and primed to ensure a strong bond with the adhesive. - Installing the New Windshield
We fit the new windshield using OEM or high-quality aftermarket glass, applying professional-grade adhesive for a secure seal. - Curing Time
The adhesive needs time to cure—typically between 30 and 60 minutes depending on the temperature and materials used. Your technician will let you know exactly how long before it’s safe to drive. - ADAS Recalibration (If Required)
For newer vehicles equipped with advanced safety features, we perform on-site ADAS recalibration so everything functions correctly with the new windshield.
Benefits of Mobile Windshield Replacement
Mobile service isn’t just about convenience. It also helps reduce safety risks. A cracked windshield can quickly become a hazard, especially in Alberta’s extreme temperatures. Booking a mobile replacement means you don’t have to delay repairs or risk further damage.
It also gives you more flexibility. You can schedule it around meetings, kids’ activities, or even during your lunch break. The service takes about 1 to 2 hours, and you don’t need to do much—just provide access to the vehicle and a safe place to park.
What About In-Shop Service?
We offer both in-shop and mobile windshield replacement. Both deliver the same result: safe, high-quality auto glass installation. However, mobile service tends to be the better choice when:
- Your schedule is tight
- Your vehicle is unsafe to drive
- You prefer staying home or at work while the repair happens
In-shop service might be better if you’re already nearby or if the weather is especially poor. Either way, we’ll recommend the best option for your situation.
Preparing for Your Appointment
You don’t need to do much to get ready for a mobile appointment. Just make sure the area around your vehicle is clear so the technician can work safely. Try to park on a flat surface if possible, and remove any personal items from the dashboard.
We also recommend avoiding driving the vehicle after installation until the curing time has passed. This helps ensure the adhesive sets properly and the new windshield seals as it should.
