Mobile Vehicle Windscreen Replacement in Springfield and the Central Coast

Do I Need A Windscreen Repair Or Replacement?

Not sure whether your windscreen can simply be repaired or if it will need a replacement? Here’s a quick guide to help you prepare for your appointment:

Your windscreen is repairable if:

The chip is small (no bigger than a $1 coin)

Your windscreen has never had a chip in this same location before 

The damage is repaired before it begins to crack and spread

The chip is closer to the centre of the windscreen than the edge and not directly in front of the driver view

Your windscreen will likely need replacement if:

The chip or crack is bigger than a $1 coin 

There are multiple chips

The windscreen has chipped/cracked in the same location before 

The chip is too close to the edge of the windscreen or directly in front of the driver view

Most chips are repairable when they first happen. It’s when the chip is left too long and has the opportunity to crack that damage can become irreparable.
