Where is Jacobs Low Price Auto Glass?

At 8835 South Central Expressway, Dallas, TX 75241, next to Pick-N-Pull. See address and hours.[1]

When is it open?

Monday to Saturday, 8:30 am to 5 pm, and closed on Sunday, according to its Google profile. A 2023 release gave the same hours. Holiday hours are not posted, so call ahead around public holidays.[2]

Do I need an appointment?

The shop suggests calling for an appointment but says walk-ins are welcome, and it mentions a waiting room for customers. Calling first with the make, model, year and VIN lets the shop check whether the right glass is on the shelf.[3]

How old is the business?

It says it has been in business since 2000. See history.[4]

What does it fix?

Windshields, chips, back glass, door, quarter and vent glass, and power windows. See what the shop does.[3][5][6]

Can it do a windshield the same day?

It says most jobs are done the same day from its in-shop stock. Even when the glass is on hand, the car must stay parked until the adhesive reaches the minimum drive-away time the installer gives, which depends on the product and the weather.[3][7]

How much does a windshield cost there?

The shop publishes no prices and quotes each car by phone or web form; the form asks for the VIN. Its cost article says size, curvature, glass type, sensors, heating and insurance all move the price.[8]

How is it rated?

4.8 stars from 751 Google reviews on 9 November 2026.[2]

OEM or aftermarket?

Both must meet FMVSS 205; the shop quotes either. See OEM and aftermarket glass.[9][10]

How hot does Dallas get?

Love Field averaged about 25 days a year at 100°F or more from 1996 to 2025. See heat data.[11]

How dark can Texas window tint be?

25% light transmission on the front side windows; a top strip on the windshield; any shade behind the driver. See tint and film.[12]

Will my camera need calibrating?

Usually, if it is mounted on the windshield. Ask the shop who does it. See calibration.[13]

Does insurance pay?

Comprehensive coverage pays, less the deductible. See glass claims.[14]

My window hums but will not move. Why?

The shop says that usually means a failed regulator. See regulators and motors.[6]

Does it come to my house?

Its service pages describe in-shop work and do not offer installation at a home or office. In-shop work also lets the adhesive cure in steadier conditions than a driveway in a Dallas summer.[3]

Can I e-mail the shop?

Yes, at the address on its contact page, lowpriceautoglass49@yahoo.com.[1]
