$200 to $500 covers everything on the vehicle except the windshield, and on a work van that includes the sliding door pane, the fixed side windows and the rear barn door glass. Most are on hand or sourced the same day. Give us the year, make, model and whether it is the long or short wheelbase, and the exact pane is confirmed before you drive the few minutes to Germantown Avenue.

Vans are their own problem, and it is worth explaining why. A panel van of a single model year can be sold with a solid sliding door, a fixed window in that door, a sliding vent window in it, glass on one side only, or glass on both, and the wheelbase changes the pane again. Then the second-hand market moves them around and the vehicle in front of you is not necessarily the specification it left the factory as. Guessing costs a day. So we work from the year, make, model, wheelbase and, where it exists, the plate details, and we confirm the pane is right before anybody orders it.
The other thing about commercial glass is that the vehicle is usually working. A car with a broken quarter pane is an annoyance; a van with a smashed sliding door window is a day of lost trade and a load nobody wants to leave in it overnight. That drives how we schedule. Commercial jobs go to the front of the morning where we can, because the difference between fitted at 9 and fitted at 3 is real money to the owner. Signwritten vehicles get handled with that in mind too: vinyl around an aperture does not enjoy being worked over, so the trim and seals come off with more patience than speed, and the glass is set without dragging anything across the graphics.
“Excellent job and great professional service. Dropped my car off 8am and it was done within two hours. Pricing for my window replacement was the most reasonable in the city of Philadelphia. Highly recommend.”

Fairhill has more working vehicles per block than almost anywhere we serve. The 5th Street commercial strip runs on deliveries, the food and grocery trade means vans moving stock all day, and the trades working the rehab blocks park their tools inside their glass. So the calls we get from this neighbourhood skew commercial and they skew urgent. Being minutes away is the whole advantage: a van that comes in first thing can be back on 5th Street before the afternoon rush, and if the pane has to be ordered we can usually keep it moving rather than parking it for a day. If it is signwritten or racked out inside, say so when you ring so the access is planned rather than discovered with the trim already off.

Not if the job is done at the right pace. The risk is not the glass, it is the trim and the seal rubber that sit over the edge of the wrap, and lifting those carelessly is what tears a graphic. We work them off cold and slow, keep tools off the vinyl, and set the new pane without sliding it across anything printed. Tell us on the phone that the vehicle is wrapped so the time is allowed for; it is a very different job from a plain white van and we would rather know first.
Usually, if the glass is confirmed in advance. The limiting factor is almost never bay time, it is whether both panes are in the building, and van variants are the ones most likely to need ordering. Give us the details for both vehicles when you book rather than the day of, and we will tell you honestly whether it is both today, one today and one tomorrow, or both tomorrow. We are open 7:30 to 4 on weekdays and closed at the weekend, so Friday afternoon bookings are worth planning ahead.
