Cost of Windscreen Repair vs. Replacement
When it comes to windscreen damage, many windscreen technicians will offer to replace your windscreen over repairing it. While some windscreen damages require full replacements, many windscreens can be saved – but only with superior skill and cutting-edge technology, both of which NOVUS® Glass possess.
Compared to windscreen repairs, replacements are far more expensive. They not only require more money, but your precious time and recalibration of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) installed in most new cars. Click here to find your local NOVUS® Glass branch, and we will easily assess whether your windscreen damage can be saved by a hassle-free repair.

Less Money & Time Spent
We use a NOVUS® Glass patented and proved repair method to safely and effectively repair your windscreen. Firstly, an optically clear, patented NOVUS® Glass resin will be injected into the crack or chip. Next, the glass is cured and polished such that 75-95% of the original optical clarity, and almost full structural integrity is restored.
This quick process does not require the same cost and time investment as a replacement would, especially for minor windscreen damage. Ultimately, between windscreen repair and replacement, a repair (if possible) is the more cost efficient, time-saving, hassle-free and environmentally friendly option.
It is advisable to get any windscreen repair work done as soon as possible. Do not let minor damage deteriorate into bigger problems, and do not compromise your safety and the structural integrity of your car! If you’re unsure of what services you need, or just need to arrange an assessment of the damage, our friendly NOVUS® Glass staff are here to help – don’t hesitate to call us at 13 22 24, or make an online enquiry here now!

Recently had a rock thrown through the passenger window of my vehicle. Novus Wagga Wagga were very helpful, contacting NRMA and fitting temporary protection to my vehicle on the spot. The repair was made and the vehicle cleaned and returned within 90 minutes. Excellent service

I booked online to get my car windscreen repaired on a Friday night and Novus was able to repair it the next morning. He was very friendly and professional and it was fixed an unbeatable price.
Kellie – West Wollongong, NSWRead what our customers have to say about us
Had a chip in my windscreen, so I rang another Autoglass company and NOVUS®. The first company said they can show up the next day and as the damage was near the edge I would need a new screen, but Joe from NOVUS® Warragul was there within a few hours and fixed the chip with no worries. Very friendly and fast honest service. Thanks, Joe.

I phoned this morning regarding a smashed rear window for my Toyota. This was the lowest quote and the replacement was fitted the same morning in my driveway! Very friendly staff. I am very pleased with the product and the service and highly recommend the company.

Absolutely delighted with the service today. From the time of my enquiry, to fix up a stone chip in the windscreen, it was less than half a day. The work was done at my residence and done quickly and superbly. Great work. Thanks to the NOVUS® team.
