AUTO GLASS SHOP Checklist
For Collision Repair Shops

The quality of repairs you provide for your customers is superior. You need to be sure that a quality and safe repair doesn't stop at the "belt line". When you subcontract autoglass replacement, the company(s) you use must provide the same superior work.

The checklist below will give you the facts you need to know before allowing any glass shop to do work on your customer's cars. As you know, a company "values" their product or services based on specific features. You lose when the company make promises they can't keep. Ultimately the consumer loses when the process involves artificial or arbitrary standards and practices.
