Fast, Mobile Windscreen Rubber Resealing
There's nothing worse than finding water pooling on your dashboard after a rainstorm or hearing that persistent whistling noise every time you're on the road. If your windscreen seal is letting in moisture, drafts, or road noise, you're not stuck with it. At Eastern Suburbs Windscreens, we specialise in professional rubber resealing that stops leaks and restores your vehicle's weather-tight protection. Whether you're dealing with sun-damaged seals in Maroubra or coastal salt corrosion near La Perouse, our mobile technicians bring the solution to your driveway or workplace across the Eastern Suburbs.
When to Reseal vs. Replace Your Windscreen
Not sure whether you need resealing or a full windscreen replacement? Here's how to tell the difference.
| You Need Resealing If: | You Need Full Replacement If: | |
|---|---|---|
| The glass itself is undamaged - No chips, cracks, or pitting in the windscreen itself. The problem is solely with the rubber seal or adhesive around the edges. | The windscreen has chips or cracks - Any damage to the glass itself, particularly in the driver's vision area or extending to the edges. | |
| You're experiencing leaks - Water enters during rain or car washes, but the windscreen has no visible damage. | Both seal and glass are compromised - When the seal has failed AND the glass shows signs of stress fractures or damage. | |
| You hear wind noise - Whistling sounds while driving indicate gaps in the seal, not glass damage. | The seal is beyond repair - Extensive deterioration around the entire perimeter, or damage so severe that resealing won't create a lasting bond. | |
| The seal looks deteriorated - Visible cracking, brittleness, peeling, or separation of the rubber from the glass or frame. | You've had multiple reseal attempts - If you've already tried resealing and leaks persist, the windscreen frame or glass may have underlying issues requiring full replacement. | |
| Your windscreen was recently replaced - If you had a replacement done in the past 1-2 years and now have leaks, the seal may have been installed improperly. |
Still Unsure?
During our free assessment, we inspect both your windscreen and seal to determine the most cost-effective solution. We'll never recommend replacement when resealing will solve the problem—our goal is getting you the right fix at the right price, not upselling unnecessary services.
What Causes Windscreen Rubber Seals to Fail?
Your windscreen's rubber seal works around the clock to keep out Sydney's unpredictable weather, from summer scorchers to those sudden coastal downpours. Over time, though, even the toughest seals face challenges that compromise their integrity.

Relentless UV Exposure
Sydney's intense sun is brutal on rubber components. Constant UV bombardment causes the seal to harden, crack, and lose its flexibility — especially if your car's parked without covered protection. Once brittleness sets in, the seal can no longer form a watertight barrier.

Extreme Temperature Swings
Eastern Suburbs weather can swing from scorching 35-degree days to cool, damp winter mornings. These temperature fluctuations cause rubber to expand and contract repeatedly, eventually leading to splits, gaps, and separation from the glass or vehicle frame.

Coastal Salt and Humidity
Living near Coogee Beach or Maroubra has its perks, but the salty air accelerates seal deterioration. Salt creeps into the tiniest gaps, causing corrosion around the windscreen frame and breaking down the rubber's molecular structure faster than it does in inland areas.

Natural Ageing and Wear
Even with perfect conditions, rubber seals have a lifespan. Years of vibration, exposure to car wash chemicals, and general aging gradually degrade the material until it can no longer perform its protective function.

Poor Installation After Replacement
If you've had your windscreen replaced previously and the seal wasn't installed correctly — perhaps insufficient adhesive was used or the curing time was rushed — leaks can develop months or even years later as the improper seal finally gives way.
Our Professional Resealing Process
At Eastern Suburbs Windscreens, we've refined our approach over thousands of successful reseals. Here's what happens when our mobile unit arrives.
Thorough Assessment (10-15 Minutes)
Careful Windscreen and Trim Removal (20-30 Minutes)
For complete resealing, we carefully remove interior and exterior trim pieces without damaging your vehicle's finish. Using specialised wire saws, we cut through the old adhesive, then employ industrial suction cups to safely lift the windscreen. Every step protects your dashboard, paintwork, and the glass itself.
Surface Preparation and Cleaning (15-20 Minutes)
This stage is critical for a leak-free result. We remove every trace of old adhesive, clean away debris, treat any rust or corrosion, and eliminate mold or mildew growth. The frame must be completely clean and dry before the new seal can achieve proper adhesion — shortcuts here guarantee future leaks.
New Seal Installation (25-35 Minutes)
We install premium UV-resistant rubber seals designed to withstand Australia's harsh conditions. High-quality urethane adhesive — never household silicone, which expands and contracts — creates the weatherproof bond. Our technicians ensure even pressure distribution around the entire perimeter, preventing weak spots that could fail under stress.
Reinstallation and Curing (20-30 Minutes + Curing)
Your windscreen is carefully lowered back into position, trim pieces are refitted, and we verify perfect alignment. Temporary tape holds everything in place while the adhesive cures. We'll advise you on the specific wait time before driving — typically 1-2 hours.
Premium Materials That Last
We exclusively use UV-resistant rubber seals that meet Australian automotive standards. Our urethane adhesives are temperature-specific, formulated for Sydney's climate to maintain flexibility through heat and cold. When coastal conditions demand it, we apply corrosion treatments before sealing. Every material is chosen for durability — because a reseal that fails in six months isn't a solution at all.

Frequently Asked Questions
Professional windscreen replacement is precise work that requires proper materials, specialized tools, and strict adherence to safety procedures. Here's exactly what happens when our expert mobile technicians arrive at your location:
How much does windscreen rubber resealing cost?
The cost of professional resealing depends on your vehicle's make and model, the extent of seal damage, and whether frame corrosion treatment is needed. This is significantly less expensive than a full windscreen replacement. We provide free, no-obligation quotes so you know the exact cost upfront.
How long does the resealing process take?
A complete reseal usually takes 1-2 hours from start to finish, plus 1-2 hours of curing time before you can safely drive. For minor seal repairs that don't require windscreen removal, we can often complete the work in 30-60 minutes. Same-day service is available across the Eastern Suburbs.
Will the repair stop all leaks permanently?
When performed correctly with quality materials, professional resealing creates a watertight, weather-resistant seal that should last for years. We back our work with a lifetime guarantee on workmanship, so if any issues arise from our installation, we'll make it right at no additional cost.
Can I reseal the windscreen myself?
While DIY kits exist, we strongly advise against them. Windscreen resealing requires specialised tools, proper adhesives, and expertise to avoid damaging the glass or vehicle. Incorrect installation typically leads to recurring leaks within months, ultimately costing more. The structural integrity of your windscreen — which contributes 30% of your vehicle's strength during a rollover — is too important to risk.
Does insurance cover windscreen rubber resealing?
Many comprehensive car insurance policies cover seal repairs, particularly when water damage has occurred or is imminent. Some insurers don't apply excess fees for windscreen-related repairs. We're experienced in working with all major insurance providers and can help with claim documentation where applicable.
How do I know if my seal needs resealing or if I need full replacement?
During our free assessment, we'll identify whether your windscreen glass is intact and only the seal is compromised, or if glass damage requires replacement. Generally, if you're experiencing leaks or wind noise but the glass has no cracks or chips, resealing is the appropriate solution. We'll always recommend the most cost-effective option.
