Chipped windshield

Was driving to tdot today and got a stone that chipped my windshield. It's not bad, just a small crack, but I need to know where to go to get it repaired. Suggestions?

Thx!

apple.

as long as the crack/chip isn't more than 6" long and isn't touching the edge of the glass, it can be repaired for pretty cheap.

^ never had cracks repaired at All Brite ...

but, we've had tint done on two cars and a windshield replaced on another - perfect results every time. Quality was good and pricing was nice - no complaints

I found out the dirt.. basically there are 2 main company's that own this business, Apple and some other one.. so the prices are obviously gonna be higher. Those 'small' businesses like All-Brite are ex-employees from the 2 main businesses that starter their own thing. Anyway that's what a guy at work told me who has a buddy who started his own business...

Either way, I paid $29.95 for the same thing Apple charges, so I'm happy!
