The fact of the matter is that people have died from being ejected from their vehicle in the event of an accident, and injured from being crushed due to faulty glass fittment. We are pleased that you seem to be taking your job seriously and have the relevant qualifications for glass fitting, however this is not the case in all companies and we feel it is right to bring these concerns to light and allow the customer to make an educated choice. Many customers are unaware of the risks and we feel it is responsible to highlight the dangers that might not be immediately apparent to them. If an educated customer then demands a quality fittment from a competent supplier that is good for the customer and the glass replacement industry. If the general risk of a replacement screen can be avoided in the first place then that is preferable from a safety point of view and that is why we aim to do the best repairs possible which will be more likely to be acceptable to the discerning customer and avoid the risk of a replacement altogether. If a windscreen chip repair is poor then ANY customer can see it looks bad as we have shown elsewhere on this site. If a windscreen replacement is bad there is no easy way of telling, thats the problem...

At least OUR work is covered under NVQ & British standards. Admittedly some companies dont have this standard & should be removed. I wonder if the OMBUDSMAN would be interested in the SCARE MONGERING ??? This website is so DEPRIMENTAL & MISLEADING.
