Windscreen chip or replacement: the basics
What the job involves
A chip can often be filled with resin, which stops it spreading and is quick; a crack or a chip in the driver's view usually means a new windscreen. Cars with cameras behind the glass need the driver-assistance system recalibrated after replacement.
What to ask a pro, and what to have ready
Note where the chip is and its size, and your car model and year. Ask whether recalibration is included if your car has a camera, and whether your insurance covers glass with a lower excess, as many policies do.
Safety and good to know
Damage in the driver's line of sight can fail an MOT, so fix chips early before they crack. LincsDirectory doesn't vet or endorse businesses — always check credentials and get a written quote.
Good to know
a chip repair is quick and leaves a faint mark; the sooner it is done the better, because dirt gets into the chip and cold weather spreads cracks. Many windscreen companies come to your home or work. If your car has lane-assist cameras, make sure recalibration is part of the job and ask for the calibration report.

Can a chip be repaired or does the screen need replacing?
Small chips away from the edge and the driver's direct view can usually be repaired. Cracks, large chips, or damage directly in front of the driver normally need a replacement screen.
