As a general rule of thumb, up to 4 or 5 broken pieces can be replaced on-site. Any more than that is usually too much damage to repair properly, and we strongly urge a shop repair at that point.
We do not do on-site repairs when the air temperature is less than 50F, nor do we do any repairs in inclement or windy weather, for safety reasons.
We have a mobile service studio, equipped to handle simple and intermediate difficulty jobs. It is a self-contained box truck, we need a relatively flat place to park and a place to plug in a long extension cord.
