Panoramic roofs are common here
Large fixed glass roofs are standard or optional on many EVs and late-model SUVs seen around Palo Alto. A fixed panel is bonded like a windshield, so it needs the same careful prep and adhesive cure.

Roof Glass Replacement in Palo Alto
What Palo Alto drivers should know
Garage space matters
Roof glass is big and must be lifted straight down onto the frame. A driveway or garage at your Palo Alto home gives us room to work safely, which is easier than street parking in RPP districts.
Weather-tight before the rain
Most of Palo Alto's roughly 15 inches of annual rain falls in winter. A cracked roof panel can leak into the headliner, so it's worth replacing before the wet season.

Roof Glass Replacement in Palo Alto: FAQ
Can a cracked glass roof be repaired instead of replaced?
Roof glass that is cracked or shattered is generally replaced, because the panel is part of the roof's seal and structure.
Do you clean up the broken glass inside?
Yes. We cover seats and the headliner, then remove broken glass from the cabin before installing the new panel.
When can I drive after roof glass replacement?
A bonded panoramic roof needs the adhesive to cure before driving. We tell you the safe drive-away time for your vehicle at the end of the job.
