Why San Antonio Chooses River City Auto Glass

There are plenty of national chains and 1-800 numbers offering windshield work in Texas. We’re not one of them. Here’s what you actually get when you bring your vehicle to River City:

1. Same-Day Service

Most windshield replacements are completed in 60 to 90 minutes. Drop off in the morning, pick up by lunch — or schedule mobile service and we’ll come to you the same day in most cases.

2. Family-Owned & Local

We live in San Antonio, work in San Antonio, and answer to San Antonio. No corporate scripts, no out-of-state call centers. When you call us, you talk to the people doing the work.

3. Certified, Experienced Technicians

Our installers follow Auto Glass Safety Council (AGSC) standards on every job. That means proper urethane, proper cure time, and proper safe drive-away guidance — not shortcuts that compromise the structural integrity of your vehicle.

4. Insurance Claim Specialists

We work directly with State Farm, GEICO, USAA, Allstate, Progressive, Farmers, and every other major carrier. Most claims handled start to finish in one phone call, with $0 out of pocket on many Texas policies.

ADAS Calibration: Required on Modern Windshields

If your vehicle has lane-keep assist, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, or a forward-facing camera, your windshield is part of your safety system — not just a piece of glass. After replacement, the camera mounted to the windshield must be recalibrated to factory specifications.

Skipping calibration isn’t optional. An uncalibrated camera can disable safety features entirely or cause them to misfire — including phantom braking and lane-departure warnings that fire when you’re driving straight.

We perform both static (target-based, in-bay) and dynamic (road-driven) ADAS calibration in-house at our San Antonio shop. You don’t have to drive across town to a separate dealer or specialist after we replace your windshield — we handle the whole job under one roof.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does windshield replacement cost in San Antonio?

Most windshield replacements in San Antonio range from around $250 for older vehicles with basic glass, to $600 or more for newer vehicles requiring OEM glass and ADAS calibration. The exact cost depends on your vehicle’s year, make, and model, the type of glass (OEM vs. aftermarket), and whether your windshield includes features like rain sensors, heads-up display, or lane-keep cameras. If you have comprehensive insurance, your out-of-pocket cost may be $0 — many Texas policies include low or zero-deductible glass coverage. Reach out for a free, no-obligation quote.

In most cases, yes. If you carry comprehensive coverage, your insurance almost always covers windshield replacement for damage caused by rocks, debris, or weather. We work directly with all major Texas carriers — State Farm, GEICO, USAA, Allstate, Progressive, Farmers, and others — and we handle the entire claim from start to finish. Many drivers in Texas pay $0 out of pocket because their policies include glass coverage with no deductible.

Generally, chips smaller than a quarter and cracks shorter than about six inches can be repaired in roughly 30 minutes. Repair preserves your factory windshield seal and is significantly cheaper than replacement. You’ll need a full replacement if the damage is larger than a quarter, longer than six inches, located in the driver’s primary line of sight, or sitting at the windshield’s edge (which compromises structural integrity). Send us a photo through our quote form and we’ll tell you which option fits your situation.

Yes. Our mobile units cover all of San Antonio and surrounding areas — we’ll come to your home, office, apartment complex, or job site. Mobile service includes the same OEM-quality glass, the same AGSC-certified technicians, and the same lifetime workmanship warranty as in-shop work. Schedule online or get in touch to book.

Plan on about 60 to 90 minutes for the install itself. After the urethane adhesive is applied, we’ll give you a “safe drive-away time” — typically one hour — before you can drive the vehicle. If your vehicle requires ADAS calibration, plan another 60 to 90 minutes for that step. We perform both static and dynamic calibration in-house, so you don’t have to drive across town for a second appointment.

Yes. We perform both static (target-based) and dynamic (road-driven) ADAS calibration in our San Antonio shop. Most 2018-and-newer vehicles with lane-keep assist, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, or a forward-facing camera require calibration after windshield replacement. We strongly recommend completing calibration the same day as your replacement — driving with an uncalibrated camera can disable or misfire safety features.

We’re a family-owned, locally operated auto glass shop based at 6959 Alamo Downs Pkwy in San Antonio, Texas. We’re not a franchise, not a call center, and not a referral middleman. When you call River City Auto Glass, you talk to the people who work on your vehicle.

Yes — every installation is backed by a lifetime workmanship warranty for as long as you own the vehicle. If anything we did fails — a leak, a wind noise, an adhesive issue — we’ll make it right. No fine print, no runaround.
