WINDSCREEN REPAIR SERVICES

HOW IMPORTANT IS THE CONDITION OF THE WINDSCREEN?
A stone chip on your Windscreen could cause your car could fail its MOT test. Worse still, if stone chips go untreated they may develop into a crack, which could have potentially hazardous consequences. Cracks and other damage can weaken the strength of the windscreen and affect vision through the glass.

Major damage may require the windscreen to be replaced, while minor damage can be repaired.

REPAIRS
The British Standard Code of Practice BS AU 242A 1998 sets out guidelines for when windscreens may or may not be repaired.

Zone A
Area 290mm wide, centred on steering wheel, bounded by wiped area above and below. Damage contained within a circle of 10mm may be repaired.

Zone B
Driver wiped area, excluding Zone A. Damage contained within a circle of 15mm diameter may be repaired.

Zone C
Passenger wiped area, excluding Zone B. Damage contained within a circle of 25mm may be repaired.

Zone D
