Windshield Repair Forum

Hello, I am new to the forum. I

Check with Yvan lacroix in quebec. Personally I will be following Yvans template of dissuading customers from useing insurance.People up here are leary of ins' co's because of feared premium increases although I hear that ins' pays better if you don't mind waiting for your money.Oh and you can call Yvan for info as I have found him to be a very friendly guy who seems to be fairly knowledgeable about the bizz.I am useing him as a mentor to set up some of my policies and repair procedures.

ThX so much for the info

What is the going rate for a rockchip repair in Calgary, in Canadian dollars, & what do the insurance companies pay?

I've heard about $80-$90 bucks from ins' in ontario.I am gonna charge $50 for rock chip repair..more for cracks depending on severity with fleet rates for bigger customers.

get a hold of kenb81 as he does alot of ins' work.He's not to far from me in ontario.He's on this forum periodically although quiet lately.

Alberta has no comprehensive ins. because stone chips are very common so no glass coverage and i heard the going rate for repairs is around $10. I see an Albertain car and it usually has anywhere from 2to maybe 8 chips on it.

That sounds like a very low price to do a repair $10 Canadian. What's that $6 dollars American? How hard is it to run a successful business there? If you did 20 repairs a day that is not allot of money.

$10???? Sheesh! No, that's definitely not the "going rate" for retail work in Calgary.

I'm from Quebec, $10 does seem awfuly low for a repair, I charge $50 for commercial customers, $75 for private and insurance claims. As for insurance claims i deal directly with the customers insurance company without any problems.

Well thats what i heard maybe its not true but i dont know for sure . I definately know that there is no glass coverage for ins. in Alberta
