Whether your windscreen has a stone chip, a side window is damaged, or your rear window needs replacing, UK Car Glass connects you with qualified technicians who can help. We arrange replacements for all standard glass positions on cars, vans, motorhomes, and HGVs — with a straightforward online quote and 2-year workmanship warranty.
Simply select your vehicle make, model, and year using our quote widget. Within minutes, you'll see pricing and can book a time that suits you — mobile at your home or office, or at a workshop if you prefer.
What We Replace
UKCG arranges replacement for all five standard glass positions: windscreen (front), rear window (backlight), and all four side windows (front driver, front passenger, rear driver, rear passenger).
We also handle other glass requests on a case-by-case basis — including vent glass, quarter glass, and some hardtop cabriolet rear windows. Contact us directly for a quote on those.
We do not replace sunroofs or soft-top cabriolet rear windows, as these sit outside our specialist scope.
How the Booking Process Works
Start by selecting the position of the glass you need replacing, then enter your vehicle's make, model, and year. The quote widget calculates your price instantly from our catalogue.
Once you have a quote, book your preferred date and time — and choose whether you'd like the technician to come to you (mobile service) or you'd prefer a workshop appointment. You'll receive confirmation with your technician's details and what to expect on the day.
Mobile vs Workshop
By default, we arrange mobile replacement at your home, workplace, or any UK location. This is convenient and minimises disruption to your day.
Some jobs are better suited to a workshop — for example, windscreen replacements where ADAS calibration requires static equipment, or vehicles where access to power, shelter, or controlled conditions makes the work safer to complete indoors. We'll flag this during your quote and confirm the location when you book. If a workshop is needed, the entire job happens in one visit.
Weather or personal preference are also valid reasons to choose a workshop instead — just let us know.
Glass Quality and Specification
Replacements use original equipment equivalent (OEE) glass matching your car's factory specification. This means if your original glass came with features like tinting, heating, acoustic insulation, or sensor integration, the replacement will match that exactly — just without the manufacturer's logo, not the features of the glass.
You won't be offered a cheaper downspec option. The glass you get is the glass your car was designed for.
What's Included
Every replacement includes professional fitting, a full adhesive cure period (typically 45 minutes minimum before driving), and a 2-year workmanship warranty covering fit quality, sealing, and adhesive bond.
If your job includes ADAS calibration, we carry out a pre-scan before starting (to document existing fault codes) and a post-scan after calibration (to confirm the job is complete). This protects both you and us.
Technicians in our network handle the glass sourcing — you don't need to order glass yourself or chase suppliers. Our network has pre-established links to trusted glass suppliers across the UK.
Insurance Claims
If your glass damage is covered by your insurance, you have two options.
If your insurer is on our approved list, we can route your job through our technician network and they'll bill your insurer directly — you pay only your excess, which varies by insurer and policy. Alternatively, if your insurer isn't on our approved list, you can pay us out of pocket and claim reimbursement from your insurer yourself, or use your insurer's own preferred supplier.
We don't advise on whether a glass claim will affect your No Claims Discount — that's a question for your insurance company directly.
Across completed car glass jobs from August to October 2026, our customers paid £446 on average, with most paying between £312 and £496.

How it works
Three steps from damaged glass to back on the road. We're the booking platform — the people doing the work are vetted specialists from our UK-wide network.
- 1
Get your price
Tell the widget which variant you drive — camera behind mirror, rain sensor, heated band. We match your exact glass and quote instantly.
- 2
Book your specialist
Pick a slot that works. We confirm a vetted specialist, whether the job is best done at your location, and whether ADAS calibration is needed.
- 3
Back on the road
From the moment the technician starts, you can normally drive your car again within about two hours. That includes ADAS calibration where needed, which is done while the adhesive sets.
What's guaranteed, every job
Fast turnaround
Most replacements are completed within 1–3 days. Next-day fitting is often possible, depending on glass availability and your location.
Matched to the same specifications
Your replacement glass matches your original spec — the same size, features and trim fitment as the glass the car left the factory with (just without the brand logo).
2-year workmanship warranty
Water leaks, wind noise, bonding issues — if the job the specialist did wasn't right, we make it right. Covered for two years from the date of replacement.

Frequently asked questions
The questions customers ask us most often.
Side window replacement is typically 30–45 minutes.
Windscreen replacement is 45–90 minutes — if ADAS calibration is required, the technician will be on-site longer.
Rear window replacement is usually under an hour, with shard cleanup adding variable time depending on access.
The technician will give you a time window when you book.
It depends on the glass. Windscreens and rear windows are bonded with adhesive that needs to cure — your technician will confirm a minimum drive-away time before leaving (typically around 45 minutes). Side door windows have no adhesive, so you can drive as soon as the technician finishes.
We work with a wide network of suppliers and technicians across the UK, so we can often help with classic and unusual vehicles. However, replacement is only possible if the glass is available in stock and a technician has the skills to fit it. Get a quote to find out — there's no charge for the quote itself.
Yes — we cover the whole of the UK, including Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland (except border areas towards the Republic of Ireland). If you're on a bridge-accessible island, we cover you; ferry-only islands are outside our service area.
Contact us and send photos of the issue. We'll review your original job details and arrange remediation if it's covered by our 2-year workmanship warranty. Depending on the problem, inspection may need to happen at a workshop so we can properly diagnose the cause.
