Cracked Windscreen Insurance Claim in Perai: What Should You Do Next?
If your windscreen is cracked and you have applicable windscreen insurance coverage, the next step is to check the damage and understand the relevant claim requirements before arranging the appropriate windscreen service.
At Speedy Auto Glass Specialists, our team in Perai can assist eligible vehicle owners with windscreen claim requirements, documentation and the relevant windscreen service. We can help you understand what information may be needed before coordinating repair or replacement where applicable.
What Should You Do After Discovering a Cracked Windscreen?
If you have windscreen insurance coverage, having your vehicle and insurance information available can help our team understand the claim circumstances and the windscreen service that may be required.

Check the Windscreen Damage
Take note of the crack and the general condition of the windscreen. Our team can inspect the damage before advising whether repair or replacement may be suitable.
-
Check Your Windscreen Insurance Information
If you have windscreen insurance coverage, check your available policy or insurance information. Claim eligibility and requirements can vary depending on the policy, insurer and circumstances.
-
Prepare Your Vehicle and Claim Information

Once the relevant claim requirements are confirmed, we can help coordinate the applicable windscreen repair or replacement service.
Does a Cracked Windscreen Always Need Replacement?
Not every type of windscreen damage requires the same service. Some minor stone chips or localised damage may be suitable for repair after inspection, while other damage may require windscreen replacement.
Our team checks the condition of the windscreen before advising on the appropriate service. If the damage may be repairable, learn more about our stone chip repair service.
What Information or Documents May Be Needed for a Windscreen Claim?
Windscreen claim requirements can vary. Depending on the circumstances, information or documents may include:
- Vehicle registration information
- Active insurance policy or coverage information
- Identification documents
- Driving licence
- Previous insurance information where applicable
- Tint warranty or invoice where relevant
- Company documents for applicable company vehicles
- Other supporting documents requested for the claim
Not every claim requires the same documents. Our team can explain what may be relevant based on the available insurance information and claim circumstances.

2–4 Hours
Windscreen replacement typically takes approximately 2–4 hours, depending on the vehicle and job requirements.
What Happens to the Tint on a Replacement Windscreen?
If the cracked windscreen is replaced, any tint attached to the old windscreen is removed together with the glass. Tint for the replacement windscreen therefore needs to be considered separately.
For applicable windscreen claims, customers may submit a third-party tint bill, with the applicable amount handled according to the claim offer.
Our team can explain how this applies based on the relevant claim circumstances. If you are considering tint for the replacement windscreen, you can also learn more about our Speedy Tint service.
What About Company Vehicles?
We can also assist with applicable windscreen claims for company vehicles. Company vehicle claims may require additional company documents depending on the insurer and claim circumstances.
Our team can explain what information may be needed before the applicable windscreen service is coordinated.
