Fast, Efficient Mobile Windscreen Repair in Tauranga and the Bay of Plenty
A chipped or cracked windscreen shouldn't take over your week. HQ Windscreens Tauranga is a locally owned, fully mobile service based in Papamoa. We reply to quote requests within a few hours, book most jobs within a day or two, and fix the glass at your home or work, so you never have to drive anywhere or wait in a workshop.
Being efficient means fewer steps for you, not just a quick visit. Every quote is fixed and includes the glass, labour, travel and any ADAS calibration. If you're claiming on insurance, we lodge the claim for you, and you don't need to be there while we work. It's all part of our windscreen repair Tauranga service.

Fewer Steps for You
What Makes Our Service Efficient
Fast is how quickly we turn up. Efficient is how little you have to do along the way.
One fixed quote
Your quote covers the glass, labour, travel and any ADAS calibration. Nothing changes after we quote, so there's no second conversation about price.
A photo, not an inspection visit
Send a photo of the damage and your rego and we can usually tell you straight away whether it's a repair or a new windscreen.
One person to deal with
Quintin answers the phone and emails and does most jobs himself, so you're not passed between departments.
Insurance lodged for you
We lodge the claim with your insurer, and approval usually comes through the same day. In most cases there's no excess to pay.
You don't need to be there
All we need is a driveway, carport or garage. We'll sort out access when we book and text you when it's done.
Repair before replace
If a chip can be repaired, we'll say so rather than sell you a new windscreen. A chip repair takes 30 to 60 minutes.

Be Ready
What Can Affect Timing
Glass availability. Most jobs are booked within a day or two, but some vehicles need glass ordered in, which usually arrives overnight. We'll tell you the earliest date when we quote.
Insurance approval. Your insurer has to approve the job before we start, and approval usually comes through the same day. We lodge the claim for you, so the only thing you need to send is your insurer's name, your rego and a photo. See how windscreen insurance claims work.
Repair or replace. A chip repair is the quickest fix of all. Chips up to the size of a NZ $1 coin can usually be repaired, but cracks longer than about 15cm (6 inches), or in the driver's line of sight, mean a new windscreen. Getting a chip fixed early can save you a replacement.
Your schedule. We're open 24/7, including evenings and weekends, at no extra cost.

Questions
Fast Windscreen Repair FAQs
How quickly can you get to me?
Most jobs are booked within a day or two, depending on glass availability. If your windscreen damage is urgent, call us on +64 7 807 9218 and we'll tell you the earliest time we can get to you.
How fast will I get a quote?
We reply to quote requests within a few hours, any day of the week. We're open 24/7. Sending a photo of the damage and your vehicle's rego helps us quote straight away.
Can you come after hours or at the weekend?
Yes. We're open 24/7, including evenings and weekends, at no extra cost.
How long will the job take?
A chip repair takes 30 to 60 minutes. A windscreen or rear window replacement takes 2 to 3 hours depending on the vehicle, and a side window takes 1 to 2 hours. ADAS calibration, if your car needs it, takes 45 to 90 minutes.
When can I drive after a windscreen replacement?
It's safe to drive 1 to 2 hours after the replacement is finished, once the adhesive has cured.
Does claiming on insurance slow things down?
We lodge the claim with your insurer for you, so there's no back-and-forth on your side. Your insurer needs to approve the job before work starts, which usually happens the same day, and in most cases there's no excess to pay.
Do you need to see the damage before you quote?
Usually not. A photo of the damage and your vehicle's rego is normally enough for us to give you a fixed quote, so there's no separate inspection visit.
Do I need to be there while you work?
No. As long as the vehicle is on a driveway, in a carport or in a garage, you can carry on with your day. We'll text you when we're on the way and when it's done.
