Certified Windshield Replacement, Done Right the First Time

When your windshield is cracked, chipped, or damaged beyond repair, getting it replaced quickly — and correctly — makes all the difference. Big Rig Glass provides professional windshield replacement in Portland and Wilsonville for everything from daily drivers to heavy-duty commercial vehicles, with same-day and next-day appointments available at both locations. 

When your windshield is cracked or shattered, you want it replaced fast — and done right. Big Rig Glass has replaced windshields across the Portland metro since 2000, with Sika- and AGSC-certified technicians, OEM or OEE glass, and a wire cut-out removal process that protects your vehicle. Most windshield replacements run $225 to $800 depending on your vehicle’s make and model, and take 45 to 90 minutes — the longer end when your vehicle needs ADAS camera recalibration. Every install is backed by our one-year leak-proof warranty. Call for a free quote.

The way a windshield is removed matters more than most people realize. At Big Rig Glass, we use a wire cut-out system — not power tools or outdated hand tools — to remove glass without damaging your vehicle’s pinch weld, dash, or headliner. This method prevents rust formation, protects your vehicle’s structural integrity, and in many cases allows the original glass to be saved for reuse. If another shop is using an extractor or power tool on your vehicle, that’s a problem worth knowing about.

Every windshield replacement is performed by Sika and AGSC certified technicians using high-quality OEM and OEE materials, and backed by a warranty on every installation. We carry a large inventory of glass at both our Portland and Wilsonville locations, so there’s no waiting on parts. Whether you need in-shop service or a mobile technician to come to you, we make the process fast, reliable, and stress-free.

The Wire Cut-Out Difference: Why How We Remove Your Old Windshield Matters

Most of the risk in a windshield replacement isn’t the new glass — it’s how the old one comes out. Many shops use power tools or cold-knife extractors that can scratch the paint, nick the pinch weld (the metal frame the windshield bonds to), and expose bare metal to rust.

Once that frame is compromised, every future windshield has a weaker, less reliable bond.

Big Rig Glass uses a wire cut-out process instead. A fine wire is threaded around the bond line and used to cleanly separate the old urethane without gouging the frame or the paint. It’s slower and takes more skill — but it protects your vehicle’s structural integrity, prevents rust, and preserves resale value. Remember, the windshield is a structural part of the car: it helps support the roof in a rollover and acts as the backstop for your passenger airbag. The quality of that bond isn’t cosmetic — it’s safety.

Windshield Replacement Cost & Insurance in Portland

What it costs. Windshield replacement at Big Rig Glass typically ranges from $225 to $800, depending on your vehicle’s make and model, the type of glass, and whether the windshield carries built-in features like a mounted ADAS camera, rain sensor, or heating element. Luxury, European, and newer vehicles with driver-assistance tech sit toward the higher end; older or simpler vehicles toward the lower. You’ll get an exact, no-surprise quote before any work begins.

Using insurance. Many Oregon drivers carry comprehensive coverage that includes glass, usually subject to your deductible. Oregon doesn’t mandate free windshield replacement, so your out-of-pocket cost comes down to your specific policy and deductible — and if your deductible is higher than the replacement cost, paying cash may actually save you money. We’ll tell you honestly which way comes out ahead. We bill most major insurance companies directly and handle the claim paperwork so you don’t have to. Whether you’re insured by State Farm, Progressive, Geico, USAA, AAA or more, we can make that process smoothly. 

Mobile Windshield Replacement in Portland

Can’t make it to the shop? We bring windshield replacement to you. Our mobile technicians serve the Portland and Wilsonville metro, coming to your home, workplace, or job site with the glass and equipment needed to complete a safe, warranty-backed installation on the spot. Whether you choose in-shop or mobile service, every job is performed by the same Sika- and AGSC-certified technicians using the same high-quality materials.

OEM vs. Aftermarket Windshield Glass

Not all replacement glass is equal. OEM (original equipment manufacturer) glass is made to your automaker’s exact specifications, while OEE (original equipment equivalent) glass meets the same safety standards at a lower cost. Big Rig Glass uses premium OEM and OEE materials and will help you choose the right option for your vehicle and budget — especially important for windshields with ADAS cameras, acoustic layers, or heads-up displays, where fit and clarity matter.

Do You Need ADAS Calibration After a Windshield Replacement?

If your vehicle was built in the last several years, it likely has a forward-facing camera mounted to the windshield that powers lane-keeping and automatic emergency braking. Any time that windshield is replaced, the camera must be recalibrated so those safety systems work correctly. Big Rig Glass performs certified ADAS recalibration in-house, so you don’t have to coordinate a second appointment at another shop.
