Windscreen FAQs
Answers to the questions we're asked most often about windscreen repair and replacement.
How quickly can you repair or replace my windscreen?
We prioritise same-day and next-day mobile call-outs wherever possible across Fareham and the surrounding area. Availability depends on your location and the glass required, so it's best to call or WhatsApp us to check the soonest slot.
Do you come to my home or workplace?
Yes, we're a fully mobile service. Our technicians will come to your home, workplace, or another suitable location across Fareham to carry out the repair or replacement on-site.
Can every chip be repaired, or will I need a full replacement?
Smaller chips and cracks away from the edge of the glass and outside the driver's direct line of sight can often be repaired. Larger or more central damage usually requires a full replacement. We'll assess your specific damage and advise honestly.
Will my insurance cover the cost?
Many comprehensive car insurance policies include windscreen cover, sometimes with a separate lower excess for repairs. Check your policy documents or speak with your insurer, and let us know if you're planning to claim so we can help with any paperwork needed.
Do you offer interest-free instalment plans?
Yes, interest-free instalment plans are available on eligible jobs. Ask us about the options when you get your quote.
What is ADAS calibration and will I need it?
ADAS calibration recalibrates windscreen-mounted camera systems used for features like lane departure warning and automatic emergency braking. Not all vehicles have this technology. When you book a replacement, we'll check whether your vehicle needs calibration and arrange it as part of the job.
How long does a windscreen repair take?
Most chip repairs are completed in around 30 to 40 minutes, though this can vary depending on the extent of the damage.
How long does a full windscreen replacement take?
A typical replacement takes around 45 minutes to an hour, plus a safe-drive-away time for the adhesive to cure, which we'll confirm on the day.
