Windscreen hit by pebble. Can repair?

[Fivegear]

Hi bros,

 

My windscreen got hit by pebble. Now there is a 10 cent size hairline crack. From inside can't feel it but outside can. Can repair really fix it back or have to change whole windscreen? Of cos I will prefer to just repair it. If can repair, can pls recommend which workshop. How much does it cost? Btw, how is it repaired?

 

Thanks in advance.

your insurance should cover windscreen replacement. either foc or $100

why not claim insurance and replace the whole piece? it will not affect your excess at all. dun waste time and $$ to repair

if claim one time ok, if claim too many time will affect

if pebble hit 2nd time, that means can buy 4D already

claim insurance is easy..but if the person got solar film then have to spend extra to redo the film

mine hit twice in consecutive years.

 

In view of windscreen claims experience a $500 excess is imposed - AXA

Thanks bro for the recommendation to GlassMedic. Looks good. Never knew glass cracks can be repaired. You use the service before?

depend on owner car make, some cars must wait for wind screen as no ready stock, and sometime workshop cant replace properly thus got "wind sound"

If the insurance covers FOC and there is no prior claim, claim insurance. If there is $100 excess, then try the repair.

I claim from insurance. Pay excess 100 buck, plus another 130 bucks for thermal wrap. Not to mention need to take leave.

 

Damn the Singapore weather, no choice have to to do tinting, I actually prefer all my windows to be crystal clear.

never use their service before. Just remember there is a thread about this issue.

if only S$40, i will just pay for it than waste time doing any claim
