Minneapolis Replaced
After Hail
Rear Glass for Cars
Caught in Minnesota Hail
Sedans, SUVs and pickups parked on the street or driving home on 35W or 94 take the brunt of a hailstorm. Their rear glass carries a defroster grid, antenna lines or a rear wiper, and on pickups a sliding window, so we match each of those to your VIN before the technician's visit.
Send a photo of the broken rear glass and any hail dents on the roof or trunk, plus your VIN, for a free quote.
Don't Ignore
Back Glass Damage
Hail in Minnesota usually arrives with heavy rain right behind it, and an open rear window lets it straight into the cabin. Tape plastic over the opening as soon as it's safe, then book the replacement.
Here's why you shouldn't delay getting a back glass replacement:
Compromised Visibility
Plastic over the opening blocks your rear view, and after a storm, Minneapolis roads and freeway ramps are full of standing water, branches, debris and detours you need to see behind you.
Structural Weakness
Hail big enough to break rear glass usually dents the roof edge, trunk lid or liftgate too. That has to be checked before new glass will seal properly.
Defroster/Defogger Issues
Humid summer storms fog glass fast, and cold mornings arrive by fall. Without the rear glass, there's no defroster grid to clear it until new glass is fitted.
Why Minneapolis Drivers
Call Us After Hail?
With hail dents, a soaked cabin and an insurer to deal with, we take the rear glass off your list.
Photos Before Cleanup
We photograph the broken glass and hail damage before anything is moved, for your claim.
We Check What Hail Hit
Roof edge, trunk lid and seal, so nothing is missed.
Glass and Water Out
Tempered glass and rainwater come out of seats, carpets, cargo areas and child seats before the new glass goes in.
Dent Repair Planned
If hail dents need fixing first, we plan around the body shop.

Our Rear Glass Process After a Minneapolis Hailstorm
Schedule Appointment
Send photos of the damage, your VIN and address. If hail dents need body work or a body shop is already booked, tell us and we'll schedule around it. After a big storm, we confirm the right glass is in stock and give you an honest date before booking anything.
Phone
EmailThorough Assessment
The technician checks the roof edge, trunk lid or liftgate and rear frame for hail dents near the opening, inspects the seal and confirms the defroster and antenna connections. If body work has to come first, you hear it before anything is spent on glass.
On-site Replacement
The work happens where the car is parked, once the storm has passed and the area is dry enough to work.
Safe Removal of Damaged Glass
Glass, hailstones and water come out of the frame, seats, cargo area and child seats.
Back Glass Preparation & Installation
The opening is dried and cleared of storm debris, the new glass is set and sealed, and the defroster, antenna or slider is reconnected and tested.
Quality Check & Final Touches
The technician tests the defroster, checks the seal for gaps rain could find, and points out hail dents worth reporting to your insurer. You get drive-away guidance, a written record of the job and the damage photos for your claim before the technician leaves your driveway.
Lifetime Workmanship Warranty on Eligible Minneapolis Back Glass
Request A QuoteSevere storm season in Minnesota runs from late spring through summer, so it helps to know what's covered. Eligible rear glass replacements carry our lifetime workmanship warranty, subject to current terms. If rain gets in around the new glass or trim lifts because of the installation, contact us and we'll come back to it. Keep the job record with your claim paperwork and photos.
The warranty covers the installation, not the next storm. If hail breaks the glass again, that's new damage and a new claim. Parking in a garage or ramp when severe storms are forecast, or under a car cover if you can't, lowers the odds.
Hail-Damage Claims
Hail damage is generally a comprehensive claim, and Minnesota law requires comprehensive policies to offer glass coverage without a deductible, so check yours. Photograph the glass and dents from a few angles before cleanup, since insurers often ask for exactly that.
We work with most major insurance carriers and can help with the glass part of a hail-damage claim. After a widespread storm, insurers and body shops get busy fast, so filing soon after the storm helps. Hail dents on the roof, hood or trunk are a separate repair, and your insurer decides coverage for each part.
