What to know

Repair or replace

Resin repair suits many stone chips. Long cracks, edge damage, or damage in the driver’s view often need a new glass. An MOT can fail for serious windscreen defects.

Mobile vans in Wales

Mobile auto-glass is common across Wrexham and surrounding roads. Ask about same-day slots and whether they calibrate cameras on site or at a centre.

Insurance

Comprehensive policies often cover glass with a lower excess. Using an insurer’s network is common; you may still nominate a fitter — check the policy.
