About Crack, Hole, and Impact Repair in Newport Beach
Crack, hole, and impact repair rebuilds punctured or fractured fiberglass and removes the stress crack network around it. Newport Beach repairs extend to sound laminate rather than stopping at the visible damage.
Impact damage to fiberglass creates two problems at once: the hole, and the stress cracking radiating away from it. Repairing the hole while leaving the crack network intact guarantees the repair fails at the edges. We chase every crack back to sound material before rebuilding, which is why our repair areas are larger than the damage looks and why they do not come back.
