Hi all if you get a chip in your windshield in ontario does it affect the insurance coverage? Daughters boyfriend is stressing.

I suppose it depends on the insurer, we're allowed one windshield per year (not sure if that's one total or one per vehicle) without it counting. If it's a chip and he's worried he could just pay for it, where I go it's $100 to fill a hole up to golf ball size.

Do they have house insurance as well as vehicle insurance? Sometimes you can get a windshield repair done under the house insurance apparently! If it's a simple repair I'd be tempted just to pay cash for it rather than go through the insurers.

From what I have read, the premium is unlikely to go up but the deductible may if there are several claims.


Oh - just saw this, it seems a good price! http://www.afghanautoglass.com/stone-chip-repair/ They service Burlington / Milton as well as others, so shouldn't be hard to get to.. they also have mobile service if he doesn't want to drive.

"At Afghan auto glass, our prices are competitive. Our price on auto glass & windshield repair /replacement doesn’t in any way compromise quality of products. For a stone chip damage, repair cost can range from $45-$60 for the first rock chip and about $20 for each additional chip"

Not sure with ON, our insurer, Family, no limit on windshield claims, $500 deductible, which we have a policy that covers the deductible. With ICBC deductible if $200 and no limit. As out windshield is $1500 to replace (had one at under 1000km), it is worth going though the insurer.
The best person to ask this question of is the insurer or the broker.

Thanks all. The concern the boyfriend has is that a chipped windshield voids the insurance. It sounds odd to me.

It depends where the chip is. Is it in his line of sight?

If they’re still in Hamilton there’s a place on hamilton mountain at Mohawk and Upper James that just fixes chips. Worth checking in with them. They’re not there all the time though but I think they’re linked to the Canadian tire there

Thank you all once again. Daughter said to her Boyfriend, Mum's got this network of people that knows all sorts of stuff. Then proceeded to tell him that we should be able to just get the chip filled. fingers crossed for them. If not I suppose the furniture money I gave them will turn into windshield money ho hum.
