Windscreen and repairs
Stone Chip Repairs
We are committed to providing innovative solutions that are tailored to your individual needs. However, we must adhere to the guidelines set out under the Australian New Zealand safety Standard AS/NZS 2366.1-1999. Please note that in some cases, chips or cracks must be replaced rather than repaired. For, if there are two or more previous repairs located within the critical vision area, replacement is necessary.
Chip Conditions
If any of the following conditions are met, there may further limitations on repairing vehicle glass:
- There have been eight or more previous repairs anywhere on the windscreen.
- A crack starts and ends at the edge of the windscreen.
- The damage extends through more than the outer layer of glass.
- There is significant delamination of the laminate bonding layer at or near the new damage.
- When centering the overlay template on the new damage, the previous repairs are also located partially or wholly within the overlay area.
- The new or old repairs are partially or wholly within the critical vision area.
Don't ignore them
Ignoring existing damage, such as a small chip or crack on your vehicle's glass, may not seem like a priority. However, it can lead to long-term headaches and financial burden, such as failing a roadworthy check If left unattended, the damage to your windscreen may crack or extend further, leading to the entire glass needing to be replaced, resulting in a significant increase in cost.
