This type of work can be expensive, but in Kentucky, it won’t — and in most cases, shouldn’t — cost you a dime.
“Kentucky has a unique law that if you have full insurance, or full coverage, you will get all your glass replaced free of charge. You don’t have to pay a deductible,” explained Josh Patrick.

“I tell people every day, if for some reason I have a loss, I will pay. We are just confident,” he said.
According to Patrick, many representatives of the business working in insurance companies do not understand the law here, or they do not share information with their customers.
“Because there are only a few states in the United States that do not have a deduction, they will tell you that you have a deduction,” he said.
According to Patrick, anyone who has damaged glass, or any type of glass that has been damaged due to road hazards, or from anything else, should call an auto glass company before calling their company. insurance. He also stated that any claim filed with your insurance will not cause your premiums to increase.
“It doesn’t do anything to your annual salary,” he said.
