About Tint Specialist
Tint Specialist serves the Austin, Texas market for auto glass repair and replacement and carries a 4.1★ aggregate rating across 129 verified customer reviews. By that measure, the location is solidly rated — it rates in line with the better-reviewed shops in the area — and represents a mature shop with a meaningful review base. On ShieldFinder it is one of 32 verified shops we list in Austin.
The shop's posted services include windshield replacement and chip / crack repair. Insurance billing is not direct at this shop. For a comprehensive claim, expect to either pay out of pocket and submit for reimbursement or work with your carrier on a pre-approved payment. This shop doesn't offer mobile installs; vehicles come to the location. Most replacements take an hour or so in the bay, then the manufacturer's safe-drive-away time before you take the car back on the road.
Operating schedule runs weekdays 9am-5:30pm, closed weekends. Tint Specialist can be reached at +1 512-326-9888 or via their website at tintspecialistaustin.com. Calling ahead to confirm same-day or next-day appointment availability is the most reliable approach, especially after major storm events when Austin-area shops often see surge demand.
What's notable about the Texas market: Texas allows a "zero deductible" chip repair option under comprehensive coverage for many insureds — meaning drivers can often get chips fixed without paying out of pocket. Spring storm season brings golf ball-sized hail to the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, the San Antonio corridor, and Central Texas — often totaling thousands of windshields in a single storm event.
