Chip repairs: often no deductible
With comprehensive coverage, many insurers pay for chip repair in full because it prevents a more expensive replacement claim later.
Replacements: we help with your deductible
If the windshield can’t be repaired, we can save you most or all of your deductible on most claims. Ask us how you can pay $0 for your next auto glass replacement.
Will a glass claim raise my premium?
What most people don’t know is that windshield claims are generally considered no-fault and, depending on the cause of the damage, typically won’t affect your premiums. Confirm details with your insurer.

Which coverage pays for auto glass?
Glass damage from stones, debris or weather is typically handled under comprehensive coverage, not collision. Policies differ, so check your own policy wording — the Insurance Bureau of Canada explains the main types of auto coverage.
Repair first whenever possible
A windshield chip repair costs far less than a replacement and is often covered with no deductible. If replacement is needed, see our windshield replacement Ottawa page for what is included.

Can my windshield be repaired, or does it need replacing?
Chips smaller than a loonie that are away from the edge and the driver's view can usually be repaired in about 30 minutes. Long cracks, edge damage and damage in the driver's view usually need a replacement, which takes about 2 hours. Answer three questions for a quick guide.
