How Much Does Windscreen Repair Cost in Australia?

A chipped or cracked windscreen doesn’t have to mean an expensive repair bill or a complete windscreen replacement. In fact, many types of windscreen damage can be repaired for a fraction of the cost using a DIY UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit.

So, how much does windscreen repair cost in Australia? It depends on the type of damage, whether you choose a professional repair service or do it yourself, and whether your windscreen needs replacing.

The good news? With the original Australian owned UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit, you can repair most common types of windscreen damage yourself for under $35. And it’s available at leading auto accessories retailers across Australia, including Supercheap Auto, Repco and Autobarn.

How much does a windscreen chip repair cost?

Professional windscreen chip repairs in Australia typically cost around $100 to $200, depending on the repair provider, type of damage and location.

If your windscreen needs replacing, the cost can run into hundreds or even thousands of dollars, particularly for modern vehicles fitted with cameras, sensors and advanced driver assistance systems.

But more often than not, replacement isn’t necessary. Many windscreen chips and cracks can be repaired, saving you time, money and the inconvenience of replacing your original factory fitted windscreen.

Can you repair a windscreen yourself?

Yes! With the right windscreen repair kit, you can repair many common chips and cracks yourself.

The UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit is specifically designed for Australian windscreens and our harsh driving conditions.

For under $35, you can:

• Repair common windscreen chips, bullseyes and star cracks.
• Repair suitable windscreen cracks up to 30cm.
• Make up to five repairs with one kit.
• Create a permanent resin repair.
• Save money compared with professional repairs or replacement.

UFIXIT is quick and easy to use, with step by step instructions to guide you through the repair process.

Is it cheaper to repair or replace a windscreen?

In almost all cases, repairing suitable windscreen damage is significantly cheaper than replacing the entire windscreen.

A complete windscreen replacement involves the cost of new glass, professional installation and potentially recalibration of vehicle safety systems.

Repairing suitable damage allows you to retain your original factory fitted windscreen and avoid unnecessary replacement costs.

It’s also a better environmental choice. Windscreens contain laminated glass, which is difficult and expensive to recycle. Repairing rather than replacing helps reduce the number of windscreens unnecessarily sent to landfill.

What is the best value windscreen repair option?

For many damage types, a DIY windscreen repair kit is definitely the most affordable option.

At under $35, the original Australian owned UFIXIT Windscreen Repair Kit offers up to five permanent repairs per kit, making it excellent value compared with paying for individual professional repairs.

And unlike generic overseas repair kits, UFIXIT has been specifically designed for Australian conditions.

You can find UFIXIT at Supercheap Auto, Repco, Autobarn, Amazon and other leading Australian auto accessories retailers.
