Review: 5 Minute Rock Chip Express

I have been with the company 6 years.
When I started ,Like most, I needed a job!!, although I planned to go back to school soon. Only after a few weeks I knew I was in the right place, and "canned" the school plan. Before I knew it, I advanced, with the support, and mentorship of my DM. Off my new career really went. I went from tech, to trainer, to production manager, and now,area manager in a new state.
Want a job that pays what ever you want right out of training,, offers advancement, and a huge amount of cont. training, along with support at all levels?
I got a place for you!

They don't use "glue" and they don't "come over to repair a crack"! All the site locations are at a mall or on military bases which YOU must go and they use a very high quality high technology UV curing resin!

you must be a manager there.. Cody? Nick? Chris? I was only there for 4 months and these guys are the best! But they have been doing repairs for many many years. I'd get my windshield fixed only if I was in CO and only if I didnt know anyone one else to fix my glass but these guys. In WA the otherhand, it sucks! they will use you and fire you.. The manager here in WA his name is "Jazz" which is a load of jizz since he only started a month before i did, he thinks he's the shit, but I fixed 5 failed repairs for customers that went through him. For the customers, I'd go somewheres else thats professional and friendly.. a rockchip repair shouldo nly cost $30 or less not $50 and going through insurance will raise your
rates!

Actually, I am NOT the manager in WA! How long have you worked here again?? When I first started Lee was the manager and since he has been gone Jamie has been running WA! If you have been here any length of time you would know that. However, I also worked for another company doing rock chip repairs so I have more experience in repairing rock chips than anyone else in this company! So yes I AM THE SHIT!! Failed repairs happen that's why we guarantee the repairs for life and fix them when they fail ... dumbass!!!

Come on do you really expect to get a REAL repair from a guy who works out of a tent he keeps in his car. Real businesses have an addresse not some shitty canopy they bought a wal-mart. Nick is an ass kissing douche who encorages "Techs" who have no certification from anyone to lie. George is a lowlife creep who sexually harasses his female employees. They also have an F rating with the better business bureau. I wonder why that is? Go to a CETIFIED tech and avoid the tent. I use a tent for camping not auto reairs. Research this company. They have a terrible record. Dont take my word look for yourself.

Here is the link to your F rating for the BBB. just like they said.---> http://www.bbb.org/denver/business-reviews/au... What a Joke of a "Company".
If they are too cheap to afford a building they are too cheap to repair your windshield correctly.

January 20, 2009
so i was shopping with my fiance at the citadel mall when we saw a rock chip repair company. Ill start out by saying the five minute advertisment was a total lie we waited for 15 minutes before the gal even said hello then he had some paper work plus a phone call wich in my opinion should have been taken care when she was eating that burrito. then there was a phone call which she said she had to wait for before she could start the work because my car was made before 2000. the phone call took 10 minutes all the while the lady was smoking a ciggarette 2 feet from out car. anyway the work took 10 minutes and in the end it still cracked out a day later ended up having to replace the windshield. now maybe the work would have been better if it was a different person but the company on the phone which they called "national glass claim center" was full of incompatant people but over all i was appauled the lady who did our car was the manager and her name is cindy miller i dont suggest going to these people they are at both the malls here in colorado both chapple hills and the citadel and all our military basses fort carson peterson airforce base and they airforce academy thankyou for letting me get this of my chest if you have any questions just email me at hivbia@hotmail

Good job Cindy LOL!!

NO ONE can guarentee broken glass, however, this company has a 98% success rate. Impressive, yes!. ANYONES repair may fail.... I bet Jazz, or Anyone, took care of one or more of Your failed repairs.
How many failed repairs are you doing now? Or do you provide that?
How come you were only with the company 4 months???
Wishing you many hours of "yuckin' up at your new job.
Good luck to you-

HAHAHA Jamie! You all know every complaint on here is valid AND I was personally invited into the "church"!%MRCE, ChipSmith LLC, NGCC... Whatever you all wanna call yourselves doesn't matter, you decieve your customers and for instance when an Allstate customer asks about thier good driver check we were to tell them there would be no affect on that policy period, but the repair costs them that check. How can anyone in executive management of a Corp. for any lenth of time be incompitent to work for 5MRCE??? I remeber YOU allowing customers of cracked-out windshields sit n hold for over 20 min. so that they would be agreeable when you EVENTUALLY got back on the line. Can't say that only ex-employee's are complaining since that is ALL there is. The one retained employee 5MRCE did have got smart and is gone baby gone from the hell on earth that is 5MRCE. Should re-think the co. structure now that there are forums like these avail. to put the truth out there.

SHEEP!!! It's GLUE!!!!!!

That tent insures more profit. No rent to be paid on multiple buildings, taxes, cost of design etc... If you have ever owned a business and rented, you would know. It is a small business with various locations, any similar business offering this service within a building location is NOT only fixing chips, they are multi level repairs and replacement, and more than JUST windsheilds. Every business of it's kind offering particular services has a sales pitch and it will always be a 50/50 kind of job. Some love the services, some don't. Some employees do well, some don't. You can't blame the company for so many people leaving the job, you have to factor rate of pay, other opportunities, location and such... Some folks grow tired of being outside, some find an indoor job paying similar. Clearly this job isn't for an uber educated grad student, it's for the average working man who works hard to provide.
