“After shopping around for quotes, best auto glass shop in La Mesa hands down. Caliber Auto Glass replaced my windshield with OEM glass and it looks factory. Cure time was respected and they walked me through care instructions.”

“Auto Glass Cajon gave me a no-obligation quote in minutes and stuck to it. Old urethane was cleaned off properly, not just glued over. Proof that the cheapest honest quote can also be the best shop.”
