Windscreen Chip Repair
Service the same-day from just £40 plus VAT
If you’ve got a chipped or cracked windscreen, it’s not something you want to ignore. Even a small bit of damage can create issues down the line, making your windscreen more likely to suffer further damage or even shatter. That’s a serious safety risk, both for you and others on the road.
That’s why it’s important to get your window chip repaired as soon as possible by a trusted and experienced service provider.
At Advanced Autoglazing, we partner with companies such as Delta and Glass Medic to ensure that we provide our customers with the best possible service.
Our same-day service starts from just £40 plus VAT, and we can repair most chips as long as they are no bigger than a £1 coin.
Affordable and Fast Window Chip Repairs
Our technicians are trained to handle all types of windscreen chips and cracks and can provide same-day service for most windscreen repairs. We start by drilling into the damaged area with a diamond or tungsten carbide-tipped 1mm drill. We then inject a blend of clear resins into the chip, which is hardened with ultraviolet light and polished to ensure a smooth finish that is as good as new. This is then hardened with ultraviolet light and polished so it’s as smooth as the glass it replaces.
We pride ourselves on using only the highest quality materials and techniques to ensure that your car window is repaired to the highest possible standards.
We also work with most insurance providers and can handle the claim on your behalf. Please don’t hesitate to contact us for further information.

Is it safe to drive immediately after a chip repair?
Yes, you can drive your vehicle immediately after the repair. The resin used hardens quickly, restoring the structural integrity of your windscreen.

While the structural integrity will be restored, there may be a slight blemish or mark where the chip was. However, the repair will prevent the damage from spreading and is much less noticeable than the original chip.
