Default windshield chip repair suggestions?

I was wondering if anyone knows of a really good place to get a small chip repaired preferably in the the west end of Toronto or Mississauga. Thanks - Glenn

Hey Glenn, sorry I only know ones in Markham but the sooner you get the repair done the better as dirt can get into the cracks and make it hard to cover up... don't drive in the rain until it's fixed.

Hey Jaak - Thanks for the info but I can't find a phone number for this business except in Toronto or out in the east end. Do you have a phone number? Thanks - Glenn

they usually won't fix chips, only cracks. They would probably send someone out there to fill it.
I'm not sure how your state/insurance works, definitely check with them before this, but most glass places will say the glass is cracked just to get the money and make you happy in the process.
