    FAQs

    Can a chipped windscreen be repaired?

    Yes. Small chips and minor cracks can often be repaired if treated early before they spread.

    When does a windscreen need replacement instead of repair?

    Replacement is recommended if the crack is large, located in the driver’s line of sight, or near the edge of the glass.

    How long does windscreen repair take?

    Most repairs are completed within 30–60 minutes.

    Is it safe to drive with a cracked windscreen?

    A damaged windscreen can reduce visibility and weaken the structural integrity of your vehicle. Prompt repair is recommended.

    Will a repaired chip still be visible?

    The repair significantly improves appearance and restores strength, although a faint mark may remain depending on the damage.
