Vehicle Windshield Replacement Etobicoke

The cost of a windshield replacement in Canada typically ranges between $200 to $1000, depending on several factors. These include the make and model of the vehicle, whether the glass is OEM or aftermarket, and whether Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) recalibration is required. Vehicles with heated windshields, rain sensors, or heads-up displays may cost more, sometimes exceeding $1,000.

At Auto Glass Pro Etobicoke, we maintain a large inventory of both OEM and aftermarket windshields to give you options based on your budget and safety needs. We also beat any verified competitor quote by 10% and provide free mobile service. Every quote is fully transparent—no hidden fees.

Yes, most comprehensive auto insurance policies in Ontario cover windshield replacement, especially if the damage is due to vandalism, falling objects, or road debris. However, whether you pay out-of-pocket depends on your deductible.

If your deductible is $300 and your replacement costs $500, you’ll need to pay $300 while insurance covers the remaining $200. However, some policies have zero-deductible glass coverage. Auto Glass Pro Etobicoke works directly with all major insurers to process claims and often pays up to 100% of your deductible. We handle the paperwork, saving you time and hassle. Many of our customers pay nothing out of pocket.

For most standard vehicles, a professional windshield replacement at Auto Glass Pro Etobicoke takes about 60 minutes. This includes:

• Removing the old windshield
• Cleaning and prepping the frame
• Installing the new glass with precision adhesive
• Performing a full 5-point quality inspection

If your vehicle has ADAS features, recalibration may require an additional 30–60 minutes, depending on the system. We ensure all safety systems are fully operational before returning your vehicle.

You should wait at least 60 minutes before driving your vehicle after a windshield replacement. This allows the urethane adhesive to properly cure and bond the glass to your car’s frame. Leaving too early can compromise the structural integrity of the installation and jeopardize your safety in the event of an accident.

At Auto Glass Pro Etobicoke, we use industry-leading adhesives that provide rapid cure times, and our technicians always advise you when it’s safe to drive.

It’s recommended to wait 24 to 48 hours before washing your vehicle after a windshield replacement, especially if using a high-pressure car wash. Water pressure and chemicals may disrupt the seal as the adhesive cures.

However, gentle hand washing around the vehicle body—not directly on the glass—may be safe after 24 hours. Our technicians at Auto Glass Pro Etobicoke will give you precise post-installation care instructions based on the adhesive used and weather conditions at the time of your service.

A front windshield replacement in Etobicoke typically costs between $250 and $600, though it can be higher for luxury models or those requiring ADAS recalibration. The use of OEM glass, heating elements, or embedded sensors will also affect the price.

At Auto Glass Pro Etobicoke, we provide both OEM and high-quality aftermarket options, and we’ll walk you through the pros and cons of each during your quote. We also offer free mobile service and our 10% price beat guarantee for all windshield replacements.
