Don't let a small chip become a big problem.

Your windscreen does more than keep bugs out. It's a structural part of your vehicle and a key piece of your safety system. A chip the size of a 5c piece today can become a full crack tomorrow.

Most chips can still be repaired if you act quickly, saving you a full replacement.
Repairs typically take 30 minutes and most insurers cover them with no excess.
Driving with a cracked windscreen is an offence in the ACT if it obstructs your vision.

Run by Canberrans. For Canberrans.

Matt and the team at Aussie Windscreens have been the auto glass specialists of choice for Canberra drivers for over 20 years. We're a locally owned, family-run business based at 22 Grenville Court in Phillip, a five-minute walk from Woden Plaza and Westfield Woden.

We're not a national chain. When you call us, you talk to the people who'll actually work on your car. No call centres, no overseas dispatch.

Repair, or replace?
Here's how to tell.

A good rule of thumb before you call. Final call depends on a proper inspection, but this will tell you what you're likely looking at.

Likely a repair

A quick fix, around 30 minutes

  • Chip smaller than a 50¢ coin (about 32mm)
  • A single chip or short crack, not multiple
  • Not in the driver's direct line of sight
  • Not at the very edge of the windscreen
  • Damage hasn't penetrated more than halfway through
  • You've spotted it early before it spreads
Good news: with comprehensive insurance, stone chip repairs often have zero excess. Don't drive on it. The chip will spread fast.
Likely a replacement

Full windscreen swap, usually under 2 hours

  • Crack longer than a 50¢ coin
  • Crack reaches the outside edge of the glass
  • Damage in the driver's direct line of sight
  • Multiple chips or several short cracks
  • Damage penetrates more than halfway through
  • Glass is tempered rather than laminated
Vehicles with ADAS (lane keep, auto-emergency-braking) need calibration after the swap. We handle this in-house.

Canberra & the ACT

How a Canberra
windscreen really cracks.

Twenty-plus years working on Canberra cars means we've seen the same patterns repeat. Here's what tends to crack a windscreen in the ACT, and why catching it early matters more here than most places.

Summer storms & hail

Canberra summers bring serious hailstorms. January 2020 alone wrote off thousands of windscreens across the ACT. If your car is parked outside during a hail warning, it's worth covering.

Highway stone chips

The Kings, Federal, Monaro and Barton highways are stone-chip territory. Following a truck or ute on these roads at 100km/h is when most chips happen, and most owners don't notice until they're back in town.

New build areas

Drive through Gungahlin, Molonglo, Wright, Whitlam or the newer Tuggeranong estates and you're sharing the road with construction traffic. Loose gravel, dropped fittings and skip trucks throw a lot of debris.

Temperature swings

A Canberra morning at -3° followed by an afternoon at 32° puts thermal stress on damaged glass. A chip that was fine last week can grow into a 30cm crack overnight when the seasons turn. Don't sit on it.

Why Canberra
keeps coming back.

"

After my car was broken into, they had me booked in within three business days. Other shops were quoting two to three weeks. Genuinely friendly team, focused on doing the job properly.

"

The front office staff were lovely. Replacement done quickly, excellent quality, and a better price than the other quotes I'd lined up. Would definitely recommend.

"

Got a replacement window the day after my car was broken into, for a really reasonable price. The team were genuinely lovely. Couldn't recommend more.

Questions Canberra
drivers ask us.

Everything you need to know about windscreen repairs, replacements, and insurance claims in the ACT.

When does a windscreen need replacing?
It's always best to have your auto glass inspected by a professional in person, but as a rule of thumb you'll need a full replacement if:
  • The glass is tempered, not laminated
  • The crack or chip is larger than a 50c coin
  • The damage penetrates more than halfway into the windscreen
  • The crack extends to the outside edge of the windscreen
Anything smaller can usually be repaired in under 30 minutes.
What do you use to repair my auto glass?
We use the GlasWeld ProVac Zoom: the fastest, most powerful, and easiest-to-use resin injector on the market with patented Z-Mount technology. We can't guarantee that a stone chip will be completely invisible after repair, but we do guarantee the chip will not spread once we've sealed it.
How long does a windscreen replacement take?
At Aussie Windscreens we know how hard it is to go without a car. That's why we use the best products we can source and aim for the shortest safe drive-away times possible, so your car isn't off the road for more than a couple of hours. Vehicles with ADAS (lane keep, auto-emergency-braking, etc.) require additional time for recalibration after the glass is fitted.
What windscreen damage can be repaired vs replaced?
Most chips and small cracks can be repaired, depending on four factors: size, type, depth, and location. Results vary based on the age of the windscreen, contamination in the chip, and severity. Damage directly in the driver's line of sight is usually replaced rather than repaired for safety and legal reasons.
Will my insurance cover a windscreen replacement?
If you have comprehensive insurance, windscreen damage is almost always covered, often with a reduced or zero excess for stone chip repairs (check your policy). We work directly with all major Australian insurers and can handle the claim paperwork for you. Just have your policy number ready when you call.
How much does windscreen replacement cost in Canberra?
Pricing varies based on your vehicle, the type of glass (OEM vs aftermarket), and whether features like rain sensors, heads-up displays, or ADAS calibration are involved. The fastest way to get an exact price for your car is to submit the quick quote form above or call us on (02) 6282 0066, and we'll get back to you with a no-obligation fixed price.

[Add price ranges here if you'd like, e.g. "Stone chip repairs from $X, replacements typically $X to $X". Leaving generic for now per your direction.]
Do you do mobile windscreen replacement?
Yes. We offer free mobile windscreen replacement and repair across Canberra and the ACT. We come to your home, office, or wherever the car is parked. For vehicles needing ADAS calibration we'll usually bring you in to our Phillip workshop as calibration requires controlled conditions.
Is it legal to drive with a cracked windscreen in the ACT?
Under ACT road rules, driving with a windscreen that obstructs the driver's view is an offence and can result in a defect notice or fine. Even small cracks in the driver's line of sight can fail a roadworthy inspection. If in doubt, send us a photo and we'll tell you whether it needs fixing.
What's ADAS calibration and why do I need it?
ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) includes features like lane departure warning, autonomous emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and forward collision alerts. These rely on a camera mounted to the windscreen. Whenever the windscreen is replaced, that camera must be recalibrated. Otherwise the safety systems may give incorrect readings. We do this in-house with manufacturer-approved equipment.

Still have a question? We'd love to help.
