What does insurance cover?

In Ontario, windshield damage is normally covered by the comprehensive (or all perils) part of your auto policy. Every policy is different, so we confirm yours before any work starts.

★★★★★

“I had my windshield replaced by Jon and his team and couldn’t be happier with the experience. They made the whole process incredibly easy by handling the insurance claim from start to finish. I dropped my vehicle off in the morning, and they were kind enough to drive me to work—and later even dropped my car off at my workplace once it was ready. The service was quick, professional, and stress-free. Highly recommend!”

Insurance questions

Do I need to call my insurance company first?

No. Call us first and we start the claim with your insurer. If your insurer asks you to call their claims line, we tell you exactly what to say.

Can I choose Clear Choice for my claim?

Yes. As a vehicle owner, you get to choose where your vehicle is worked on. We deal with all insurance companies and bill them directly.

Is there a deductible for chip repair?

Usually not. Most comprehensive policies cover stone chip repairs with no deductible. We confirm with your insurer before we start.

What do you need to start my claim?

A photo of your pink insurance slip or your mailing address, your current mileage, your licence plate number, the date of the incident, and your VIN, or a photo of your VIN or registration. Send them through the form above and we'll call you back.

Will a glass claim raise my premium?

Glass claims fall under comprehensive coverage, the no-fault part of your insurance. A comprehensive claim doesn't count against your policy, unless you make several claims in a short period of time.

Is camera calibration covered?

Yes, calibration of the camera is covered by your insurance company. It is a necessary service after a windshield is replaced. We do it in house with Autel equipment and include it in the estimate we send your insurer.
