Top Three Myths About Windscreen Replacement London

When it comes to needing a car windscreen replacement, London drivers suddenly realise that their windscreen is one of those things they take for granted. When you have a windscreen in perfect condition, it is not something you think about, but when you need a windscreen replacement in London, it suddenly becomes the main topic of conversation as you look for a windscreen replacement quote. But what are command myths about car windscreen replacements…

 

You don’t need to fix a small chip because it doesn’t affect your vision

Though a small chip may not affect your vision it can easily and gradually expand and increase in size, eventually forming a crack.When you get to this stage,  a windscreen replacement is something London drivers can then not avoid, so get that crack fixed as soon as you spot it. 

 

Windscreens are made using safety glass and safety glass can’t shatter

Modern windscreens are made using laminated glass known as safety glass. Some people do not think they can shatter but, in reality, debris, vandalism or even severe temperature changes can cause a windscreen to chip, crack, or shatter. At this point, getting a car windscreen replacement in London is not negotiable. 

 

Once a windscreen chip appears, you’ll need a new windscreen

Frankly, this is a very command myth that people believe.  Although we offer car windscreen replacement across London, we also like to repair your windscreen first rather than replace it, saving you both time and money when that is an option. Just like we use high quality products for car windscreen replacements in London, for repairing chips we use our special HPX4 resin we fill-in the damage, restoring the structural integrity of the windscreen. Even though a blemish will usually still be visible in place of the chip, the car is safe to drive and no full windscreen replacement is required.
