When Do You Need a Windscreen Replacements?

You might have ignored a chip or crack on your windscreen, assuming it is not a big deal. This is very risky and may compromise the occupants’ safety. Windscreens play an important role in safeguarding the driver and passengers on the road. Bugs and dust may only leave smudges on your windscreen but hail, rocks, and tree branches will cause your windscreen to crack or chip.

Even though windscreens are built tough, they can cause injuries when damaged. You may ignore the chip or crack for a while, but it will not take long for the small crack to transform into a large one. It is cost-effective to get the windscreen tested and restored or repaired to its original condition by a professional. While minor damages can be repaired, severe damage will require a complete car glass replacement.

Replacing your windshield is not an easy task and is best handled by a professional. Even so, here are a few things to know about car window replacement.

  • Location of the damage

    The point where the chip or crack has occurred is one of the most important factors in determining whether you need auto glass replacement. Damage close to the line of sight will hinder your view of the road. A chip or crack near the edge will weaken the windscreen and might lead to major cracking while you are driving. In such cases, it is recommended to get a complete windscreen replacements.

  • Extent of damage

    While a couple of small cracks can be easily repaired, if you spot more than that it is best to consult a professional. Your car windscreen might shatter anytime if it has a lot of cracks or chips. If your windscreen is very old or has undergone multiple repairs, it is better to get a new car glass replacement.

  • Depth and size of the damage

    You must consult a professional when you spot a chip or crack. Some damages may not appear very big but can be deeper than they appear. The strength of your windscreen will be compromised, and you risk aggravating the damage. Our professionals will check the damage and provide you with the best solution.

  • When repairs cannot fix the windscreen

    If your windscreen has been repaired many times before and is damaged in the same place again, replacing the windscreen is the best solution. Understand that the previous repair has not worked for a reason and will most likely not work again.

Does Insurance Cover Windscreen Replacements?

You will be able to cover the windscreen replacement cost if you have windscreen insurance. Depending on the damage and your insurance policy, you might have to pay excess on your windscreen replacements or repais. You can lodge a claim even if you do not have the optional window glass or windscreen cover on your car insurance.

General car insurance policies will not cover the cost of broken or shattered windows unless damaged in an accident. You will have to add optional windscreen insurance to cover such costs. If you have already claimed the windscreen cover once in the insurance period, you will be required to pay a standard excess the second time. You do not have to worry about the cost with Hi-Tec Windscreens, as we bill the insurance company directly.
