First, I owe my technician a HUGE apology because I was doing several other things while he was here and, unfortunately, I never even got his name. I sincerely apologize to him because if anyone deserves to be recognized by name, he does.
As a caregiver for an ailing parent, I don't have a lot of extra time to deal with appointments and errands. This experience could not have been easier. I literally had to do nothing other than click a few buttons online, schedule my appointment, and make my payment. Safelite came to my house, and the final price was even a few dollars less than I had originally been quoted.
My technician was fantastic. He kept me informed about his arrival time and even contacted me when he thought he might be more than five minutes late. He was friendly, courteous, professional, knowledgeable, and communicative from beginning to end—and this was on one of the hottest days of the year.
We don't have a garage, so he had to replace the windshield outside under a tree. While the windshield was out, leaves were blowing into my car. Before he finished, he made sure every leaf that had blown inside was removed. He left the new windshield spotless—no fingerprints, no mess, nothing. You could tell he took pride in his work and wasn't satisfied with simply installing the windshield; he wanted to leave the entire job done right.
Then, on top of everything else, he gave me a tip for getting rid of the haze on the windshield of my OTHER vehicle—something I had been fighting with for quite a while. That wasn't his job, wasn't the vehicle he was there to work on, and he certainly didn't have to help me with it.
So let's see: Safelite came to my house, the price ended up being a few dollars cheaper than originally quoted, I didn't have to rearrange my day or take my car anywhere, I got a professionally installed and spotless new windshield, AND I got a tip for fixing a problem with the windshield on my other car. Meanwhile, my technician was friendly, on time, courteous, communicative, and got everything done plus some.
That's a win-win in my book.
I honestly didn't expect Safelite to be as reasonably priced as some of the other options because it is a national company. I was pleasantly surprised. I wish I had asked the technician for business cards because I would gladly pass them out.
10/10. Excellent customer service, excellent experience, and I feel confident the job was done right. I would absolutely use Safelite again and would recommend them without hesitation.
And once again, to my technician: I am genuinely sorry I didn't get your name. You were awesome, and I hope Safelite can identify you from my appointment and give you the recognition you deserve. You represented your company exceptionally well.
