Hail Damage? Let Apollo Glass Handle Your Windshield Repairs
Spring weather can be unpredictable. One minute it’s sunny, the next you’re caught in a sudden storm with heavy rain, strong winds, and sometimes even hail. While hailstorms may pass quickly, the damage they leave behind (especially to your vehicle’s glass) can turn into a bigger problem if not addressed right away. Apollo Glass specializes in auto glass repair and replacement, helping drivers recover quickly.
How Spring Hail Storms Impact Your Auto Glass
Hail doesn’t have to be large to cause damage. Even small pellets can leave chips, cracks, or weakened areas in your windshield and windows. Spring temperature fluctuations can cause a minor chip to quickly spread into a larger crack as your vehicle heats up during the day and cools down at night.
Common issues caused by hail damage include:
- Small chips that expand over time
- Cracks that reduce visibility
- Weakened windshield integrity
- Increased risk of sudden breakage
Catching these issues early can often mean the difference between a simple repair and a full replacement.
Repair or Replace? Knowing the Right Solution
After a spring storm, it’s important to have your vehicle inspected, even if the damage seems minor. In many cases, chips and small cracks can be repaired quickly, restoring the strength of your windshield. However, if the damage is more extensive or located in a critical area, a full replacement may be necessary to maintain safety.
Apollo Glass evaluates each situation to recommend the most effective and cost-efficient solution.
Mobile Auto Glass Service for Storm Season Convenience
Spring storms don’t just damage your vehicle, they disrupt your schedule. That’s where Apollo Glass makes things easier.
With mobile auto glass service, our technicians come directly to your home or workplace, so you don’t have to drive with a damaged windshield or rearrange your day.

ADAS Calibration After Replacement
If your windshield needs to be replaced, there’s another critical step to consider: ADAS calibration.
Many modern vehicles rely on Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), with sensors and cameras mounted directly to the windshield. These systems power features like:
- Lane departure warnings
- Forward collision alerts
- Adaptive cruise control
After a windshield replacement, these systems must be recalibrated to function correctly. Apollo Glass ensures your ADAS is properly aligned, so your safety features continue working exactly as intended.
