About an hour once the glass is in hand, and $200 to $450 for most side or rear tempered glass with the cleanup included. This is the fastest work in the shop and the best reason for a Throggs Neck driver to drive down the Cross Bronx rather than wait on a van. Door and back glass for popular models is stocked.

Tempered glass does not crack, it detonates. One second the door window is there, the next there are hundreds of blunt cubes in the door cavity, in the seat rails and in the carpet under the pedals. Around here that usually happens overnight, to a car sitting in a driveway or along one of the quieter residential blocks, and the driver finds it at six in the morning with a work day already committed. The good news is that this is the quickest job we do. Glass out, cavity cleared, new pane seated on the regulator, tested up and down, vacuumed properly, and you are gone.
Driving in with a missing window is unpleasant on a nine-mile expressway run, so tape a contractor bag over the opening before you leave and take East Tremont Avenue to the Cross Bronx. We open at seven, six days a week, and there is no queue to join because there is no appointment book. A rear window with a defroster grid or an in-glass antenna takes a bit more time, since the grid and the antenna lead both get reconnected and tested before the car moves. The bill for most tempered glass lands between $200 and $450, cleanup included, and we file the comprehensive claim if you are going through insurance.

Overnight window smashes out here follow the parking. Throggs Neck is a neighborhood of one-family houses, so cars sit in driveways and along quiet side streets from Harding Avenue down to Schley Avenue instead of under a building's lights, and a bag left on a seat is visible from the sidewalk all night. Boat and fishing gear in the back of a pickup draws the same attention near the marinas. Then there is the cleanup problem: tempered pebbles land in the door and the carpet, and if the car has been sitting open in salt air by the time you get to it, the door cavity has damp glass in it. We vacuum the cavity, the tracks, the seats and the trunk, and the drain holes get checked, because water sitting on top of glass chips in a door is how rust starts.

If you leave when we open you can realistically be finished before mid-morning. The drive in is twenty-five to thirty minutes, the glass swap itself runs about an hour when we have the pane on the shelf, and the vacuuming happens inside that window. Nobody has to book you a slot first. Bring the registration and the insurance card if you are claiming, and we handle the paperwork while the tech works.
That is the part we take longest over. The cavity below the window gets vacuumed through the access holes, the run channels get cleared so the new pane does not chatter, and the seats, carpet and trunk well all get gone over. Tempered cubes hide in seat rails and under the spare tire cover, and they turn up weeks later if nobody looks. You should not be finding glass on the drive home.
