How much does it cost to repair or replace auto glass?
We make it easy to estimate repair and replacement costs before you book an appointment. Factors that may affect the cost include:
- Repair vs. replacement
Windshield repairs generally cost less than replacements, but repair isn’t always an option. - Location of damage
The exact location of auto glass damage impacts cost. For example, damage in the driver’s line of sight may require windshield replacement rather than a repair. - Vehicle type and features
Repair and replacement costs can be affected by the vehicle make and model, as well as associated features like rain sensors and glass tinting.

Frequently asked questions
Why is it important to repair or replace my windshield?
Your windshield makes up nearly 30% of your vehicle’s structure. In other words, it plays a vital role in maintaining your vehicle's structural integrity in the event of a rollover or front-end collision. As well, it helps ensure your airbags deploy as intended to protect your passengers.
Never underestimate the role a properly fitted windshield can play in restoring your vehicle’s structural strength. Your safety can depend on it
What’s the threshold between repairing a damage and replacing the entire windshield?
If your windshield’s damage is smaller than the size of a loonie ($1 coin), not in the driver's line of vision, and at least 4 cm from the edge of the windshield, we can likely repair it.
If your windshield damage consists of more than 3 impact points or a crack larger than a loonie ($1), is in the driver's line of vision, or is less than 4 cm from the edge, we strongly recommend replacement.
In either case, you can schedule your appointment online or obtain a quote to have your glass damage fixed.
Will you install the same glass as the manufacturer?
In most cases, OEE windshield (Original Equipment Equivalent) is recommended by windshield repair service centres since it has the same quality standards as OE (Original Equipment) windshield, but usually cost less.

All of our products and services undergo rigorous testing to ensure you receive the highest quality and state-of-the-art workmanship.
