Made an appointment for when the opened on a Saturday. Though they opened about 10 minutes late, the repair took less than hour. New window was fine.
/Overall you cannot beat the price. They are busy, though, and I feel like another shop that perhpas was not as busy would have taken their time and the problem I encountered would not have happed.
The replacement is great!
Efficiency: I arrived for my appointment right when they opened and the staff were ready. The job was completed in about 2 hours - but probably even less. I had anticipated waiting much longer for the vehicle as there were several early appointments waiting with me as well.
Cost: Their cost estimate was exactly what they said it would be. I had initially called my auto insurance to see what the coverage would be, but Altieri came in well under the estimate from the insurance company quote.
Departure: They made sure I knew to go slow with the car upon departure until the glass was totally sealed. They knew I would be taking the 6/10 Connector and 95, so they recommended staying at 55mph.
Overall: Great business and friendly staff. I felt that they really cared for their customers and their vehicles. I hope I never crack another wind shield, but if I do, I will definitely go back to Altieri.
It took a bit of trial and error for the shop to find the right glass to install - which meant two (maybe three) trips. The issue was, in part, due to a model change year and a confusing model type. (I have a 2000 Saturn Station Wagon. You would think that Saturn would refer to this as an and quot;SWand quot;. You would be wrong. There is a 2000 and quot;SWand quot;, but it is not a station wagon. The station wagon is a and quot;LWand quot;.)
That said, my experience was overwhelmingly positive. The owner (Steve?) seems to love what he does. I spent time during each visit in the tiny waiting room and overhead lots of conversations. Every single time, it was about fixing, helping, finding. Not a single cross word.
Also, when I called to make an appointment, before I had paid a cent, the folks at Altieri told me to come in so that they could vacuum the broken glass from my car and put plastic on the window. I really appreciated that gesture, even though I didn't need to take them up on the offer.
Really please with the experience, overall.
