Repair or replace?
Can my chip be repaired?
Usually, if you catch it early. A chip can normally be filled when:
- It's smaller than a loonie.
- It isn't right in front of the driver.
- It's not at the edge of the windshield.
Bigger than that, or already spreading? Then a new windshield is the safer fix.
Don't leave it too long. Calgary's freeze-thaw swings, or a warm chinook after a cold snap, can turn a small chip into a long crack.

We'll let you know if it can be repaired.
Calgary is hard on glass
Winter gravel, chinook swings and summer hail all take a toll. Here's when to keep an eye on your windshield.
Winter roads
Chinooks
Hail season
Show this as a table
| What | When | What it does to glass |
|---|---|---|
| Winter roads | Roughly November to April | Sand and gravel on Deerfoot, Stoney and every side street get kicked up by the car in front. It's the season for rock chips. |
| Chinooks | Through the winter | A warm chinook can raise the temperature by 20 degrees in a few hours. Glass flexes with every swing, and a small chip can run into a long crack. |
| Hail season | About June to August | Calgary sits in one of the most hail-prone parts of Canada. One big storm can crack a windshield or break a side window. |

Questions people ask us
Can't find yours? Give us a call, or send a photo of the damage on WhatsApp.
Can my windshield be repaired, or does it need replacing?
Small chips, about the size of a loonie or smaller, can usually be repaired. A long crack, damage right in front of the driver, or a chip at the edge of the glass usually means a new windshield. Send us a photo and we'll tell you which one you need.
How long does a rock chip repair take?
Chip repairs are quick, so it's worth getting one done before the chip spreads. We'll give you a time when you call or book.
How soon can I drive after a windshield replacement?
The adhesive that holds a new windshield needs time to set before the car is safe to drive. We'll tell you exactly when it's ready.
Do you offer mobile windshield repair?
Yes. As well as our shop in NE Calgary, we offer on-site service, so we can come to your home or work.
Do I need ADAS calibration after a new windshield?
If your vehicle has lane keep assist, adaptive cruise or automatic emergency braking, those systems use a camera mounted behind the windshield. After a replacement, that camera has to be calibrated so it reads the road correctly. We do both static and dynamic calibration.
Will my insurance cover it?
Glass damage is often covered under the comprehensive part of an auto policy, but every policy is different. Check with your insurer about your coverage and deductible before you book.
Is your work guaranteed?
Yes. Every job comes with our 1-year workmanship guarantee.
Do you work on all makes and models?
Yes. Cars, trucks, SUVs and vans, from every manufacturer.
