Windscreen Chip Repairs
Can a windscreen chip be repaired?……. generally YES. Windscreen chips can and should be repaired as soon as possible after the damage is caused. There are different requirements and regulations on chip repairs depending on the size and type of chip that has occurred to your windscreen. If it has penetrated past the first layer or should the chip be greater than the allowed size, then unfortunately it will be unable to be repaired, rather a replacement windscreen will be required.
Novus Auto Glass promotes repairing your windscreen as the preferred option over replacement. Not only does it save you money, it saves the environment and ensures you get to keep your factory sealed windscreen. The process of repairing a windscreen is relatively straight forward, the windscreen chip is repaired by using a Novus patented resin into the crack or chip and it is then cured using ultra violet light. This ensures the windscreen’s visual clarity, strength and stability is restored.
If there is any delay, Novus are able to supply an important patch to place over the chip as a very temporary measure to prevent the chip from spreading and importantly to keep the chip clean and free from debris entering into the inner layer. These are referred to as a Novus Saver Patch and are provided free by Novus.
Windscreen chip repairs can be carried out on all types of windscreens ranging from vintage cars to trucks, buses, boats and machinery. The Novus mobile service is able to come to you to perform repairs and generally takes less than 30 mins to complete.
