Cab Glass Replaced Where the Machine Is
An excavator with a broken cab window is a machine that is not working. Equipment glass is mostly flat tempered panels in steel or rubber-set frames, which is a different job from a bonded car windshield — and one where getting the machine running again quickly is usually the whole point.
Cab Glass on Working Machines
Excavators, loaders, skid steers, dozers, tractors and forklifts all use flat or simply-curved tempered panels, frequently held by a rubber glazing seal rather than urethane. Doors, front screens, rear screens and roof hatches are all replaceable individually. Tell us the machine make, model and which opening is broken.
On Site Rather Than in the Yard
Most equipment is not road-legal and moving it to a shop costs more than the glass. We come to the machine where it is, within a 30-mile radius of the Spokane Valley shop, and further by arrangement.
Clearing the Cab
Tempered fragments end up under the seat, in the pedals, in the control linkage and through the floor plate. Clearing them out is part of the job — an operator finding glass in the controls a week later is a safety problem, not an inconvenience.

Know Someone Driving Around With a Cracked Windshield?
$100 Visa Gift Card!
If your friend goes through insurance for a full windshield replacement, we’ll give you a $100 Visa Gift Card as a thank-you.
What’s Included:
Same-Day Mobile Service
Most jobs are done at your home or workplace across Spokane and Coeur d'Alene, with same-day appointments available.
Insurance Billed Direct
Glass damage falls under comprehensive coverage. We bill your carrier directly, so you pay your comprehensive deductible and nothing more.
Your Choice of Shop
WAC 284-30-390 bars an insurer from requiring a particular facility. You cannot be penalized for choosing an independent shop.
ADAS Recalibration
Lane departure warning, adaptive cruise and automatic emergency braking read through the windshield, so those systems are recalibrated after a replacement.
30-Mile Service Radius
We cover a 30-mile radius from the Spokane Valley shop. Outside that zone, call anyway and we will make exceptions where we can.
Repair Before Replacing
If the chip is smaller than a quarter, the crack runs under about three inches and it sits outside the driver's line of sight, a resin repair is faster and cheaper.

Alpine has been replacing and repairing auto glass for Spokane, Spokane Valley and Coeur d'Alene drivers for more than two decades.

FAQs
Quick answers to the questions we hear most. Don’t see yours? Call (509) 892-6699 and ask directly.
Can you come out to a job site?
Yes, and it is usually the sensible option — most equipment is not road-legal and moving it costs more than the glass. We cover a 30-mile radius from the Spokane Valley shop and go further by arrangement.
What do you need to know to bring the right glass?
The machine make, model and year, and which opening is broken — front screen, rear, door, side or roof hatch. A photo of the opening helps more than any description.
Is equipment glass the same as a car windshield?
No. Cab glass is normally flat or lightly curved tempered panels, often set in a rubber glazing seal rather than bonded with urethane, so it is a different fitting job entirely.
Do you clean the glass out of the cab?
Yes. Tempered fragments get into the pedals, the control linkage and under the seat, and an operator finding them later is a safety problem. Clearing the cab is part of the work.
