We do thousands of insurance jobs for glass damage a year and can talk to you about how to approach your insurer.<\/p>\n<h3>Not covered?<\/h3>\n<p>Don\u2019t stress, we can still help to get your glass damage fixed. We\u2019ll give you a quote, let you know availability and explain what to do next.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Here are the answers to our most common questions regarding insurance.<\/p>\n<h4>How does an excess work on a policy with glass cover?<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Normally an excess is a contribution you make to the costs of an insurance claim. On some insurance policies, an excess may not apply to glass damage claims.<\/li>\n<li>Glass cover may be limited to a certain number of claims per policy year, which usually refreshes on your policy renewal date.<\/li>\n<li>Call us now to find out if you&#8217;re covered for a glass damage claim \u2013 we have arrangements with many insurance partners, such as the ones listed above, so we can check to see whether you&#8217;re covered or if an excess applies.<\/li>\n<li>If you&#8217;re not covered by one of the above brands, we can still help you with what to ask of your insurer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Can I claim more than once per year on glass damage?<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Every policy is different and it varies for each insurance company. Some cover 1 glass claim per policy year and others give you the option of having multiple glass claims per policy year without any excess.<\/li>\n<li>Call us now to find out if you can make a claim on your glass damage &#8211; if you\u2019re insured with any of the brands listed above, we can lodge a claim for you. If you have a different insurer, we\u2019re more than happy to book you in and help with what to ask your insurer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Can I pay in cash and claim it back from my insurer later?<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Of course, but remember that because of our agreements with many insurers we can usually help by lodging the claim for you. We then receive payment directly from the insurer.<\/li>\n<li>Also be aware that sometimes the insurer will have a limit on what they will refund, so call us now if it\u2019s one of our insurance partners listed above or contact your insurer to discuss.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Still unsure?<\/h3>\n<p>Don&#8217;t worry! We can help. We understand insurance can often be confusing, and many people are unsure how to approach their insurer when trying to make a claim on glass damage. We speak to thousands of customers a year, so we&#8217;re happy to help no matter the situation.<\/p>\n<h3>Paying direct with cash or card?<\/h3>\n<p>If you&#8217;re not insured we can still help, simply <a href=\"tel:1800 059 829\">give us a call<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.obrienautoglass.com.au\/quote\/\">request a quote online<\/a> and we will be in contact shortly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re insured with any of the brands listed below, great news!
