Free Windshield Replacement in Florida
Get your glass, labor & ADAS recalibration—all at $0 out-of-pocket with Clearbay AutoGlass
Why Your Windshield Is Truly Free
Florida Statute § 627.7288 makes it clear: if your auto policy includes comprehensive coverage, insurers must waive the deductible on windshield claims. That means the entire job—glass, labor, moldings, adhesives, even camera recalibration for late-model vehicles—is billed straight to your carrier, not your wallet.
Key points at a glance
- $0 deductible on the entire windshield claim
- Applies statewide—from Miami to right here in Pinellas County, FL
- Zero impact on liability or collision premiums (though repeated claims can influence rates)
- You choose the shop; insurers cannot force you into a single network vendor
Who Qualifies?
- Florida policyholders with comprehensive (“other-than-collision”) or combined additional coverage
- Personal and commercial vehicles registered in Florida
- Cars, trucks, SUVs, fleet vans, exotics, and RVs (we carry the specialty glass your Lexus LS 430 Executive Series demands!)

Does the $0 rule cover labor, too?
Absolutely. “Damage to the windshield” includes installation labor, adhesives, and recalibration. You should never hand over your credit card for a straight replacement.
Can my insurer steer me to their “preferred” shop?
They can recommend—but under Florida law, the final choice is yours. We happily work with every major carrier.
What if I want OEM glass?
Many policies allow OEM when radar or camera systems are involved. If your plan only covers aftermarket, we’ll quote the exact difference before scheduling.
How long will my car sit undrivable?
Most urethane cures in one hour. While we finish paperwork, your windshield reaches safe-drive-away strength.
Are gift-card offers legal?
No. As of July 1, 2023, Florida bans incentives that entice you to file a glass claim. We build trust—not gimmicks.
