Windshield repair

Home / Our services / Windshield repair

It is important to pay attention to the prompt repair of damage (stone chips, stone strikes) on the windshield, whether they are small, barely visible, or larger cracks. The key to a successful repair is to start the restoration as soon as possible, and to protect the damage from contaminants before the repair (in the case of stone chips, the damage should always be covered in a water-free manner). Our company provides a specially designed protective cover sticker for this purpose free of charge. If such a sticker is not available immediately after the damage occurs, use clear adhesive tape if possible, and then visit the nearest Pilkington glass service!

There are technical limitations to repairability as well. Without being exhaustive, here are some criteria:

  • The extent of the damage must not exceed the size of a 100 HUF coin.
  • The possible crack cannot be longer than a few millimeters.
  • And the damage cannot be closer than 10 cm to the edge of the windshield.

It is important to emphasize that no two damages are the same. In case of any issues, please contact one of our Pilkington service centers, where our colleagues, with 25-30 years of professional experience, will carry out the windshield repair.

The advantages of windshield repair:

  • Cost-effective:
  • Repairing the windshield is generally much cheaper than purchasing and installing a new one, so you can achieve significant savings by opting for repair.
  • Time-efficient:
  • Windshield repair is a quicker process than sourcing and installing a new one, so you can get your car back on the road faster.
  • Preserves the original windshield:
  • During the repair, the original windshield is restored, maintaining its original strength and structure. This is important for the safety of the vehicle.
  • Eco-friendly:
  • Windshield repair is an environmentally friendly solution, as it uses the existing part, preventing waste from being generated.
  • Insurance benefits:
  • All insurance companies support windshield repair, often within deductible-free plans. This also helps to reduce the increase in insurance costs.
  • Prevents further damage:
  • Repairing small cracks and chips immediately prevents these damages from spreading across the windshield. This can protect the glass from larger issues and the need for a full replacement.
  • Expert work:
  • Windshield repairs are carried out by our trained technicians, who have many years of experience in this field. This ensures that the repair is done properly and to a high standard.
