Expert Roof Glass Replacement
Specialized service for glass roof panels
At Ocean Auto Glass, we specialize in providing expert replacement services for panoramic and advanced glass roof panels commonly found in modern vehicles like Teslas. Our focus is on ensuring that your roof glass is replaced with precision and care, safeguarding your vehicle's integrity and preventing issues such as leaks or wind noise. Unlike traditional sunroof replacements, we do not handle sunroofs that operate on a track but excel in replacing the expansive glass roofs of luxury and electric cars.
Operating from a comprehensive inventory of OEM and high-quality aftermarket parts, we ensure minimal delay in service. Our expert technicians are equipped with the skills and tools necessary for precise removal, replacement, and sealing, ensuring each job is completed to the highest standards.
Our Process
Initial Assessment
During this first step, our technician will thoroughly examine the damaged roof glass. This involves checking for any collateral damage to the surrounding trim or seals and ensuring the correct specifications for your vehicle’s replacement glass are identified.
Parts Verification
We ensure the availability of the precise glass panel from our inventory or reliable suppliers. For vehicles like Teslas that require specific glass panels, we source materials in line with OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) specifications to ensure functionality and quality.
Vehicle Preparation
Our team takes great care in protecting your vehicle during service. We meticulously cover the work area and cautiously remove any interior trim, ensuring that your vehicle’s interior remains untouched by debris.
Glass Removal
Using specialized tools, the damaged glass is removed carefully, and the mounting surface is cleaned thoroughly. Extra care is taken to preserve the surrounding trim and paint, avoiding additional damage.
Installation
The new glass is installed with precision bonding techniques using high-quality urethane adhesives. Proper alignment and securing of the glass help prevent water ingress and other complications.
Quality Check
A comprehensive quality inspection follows, which includes rigorous water testing and checking for proper fit. Trim is reinstalled accurately, and the workspace is thoroughly cleaned to ensure your vehicle is in pristine condition.
