Act Fast, Save More
When a chip appears on your windscreen, it may seem like a minor issue you can deal with later. But delaying that repair can lead to bigger problems down the line. A swift repair can offer numerous advantages:
- Cost-savings: A quick repair is considerably more affordable than a full windscreen replacement, reducing claims costs for the policyholders.
- Time-saving: A chip repair is a quick process, often completed within 30 minutes. This means less downtime for your customer’s vehicle and minimal disruption to their day.
- Environmentally friendly: Repairing a chip extends the life of the windscreen, reducing the demand for new glass production and subsequent waste, aligning with our shared commitment to environmental sustainability.
- Preserving visibility: Timely chip repair can prevent the spread of damage that can impair a driver’s field of vision, further contributing to road safety.
- Prevents further damage: The sooner a chip is repaired, the less likely it is to spread and become a larger crack. This helps maintain the windscreen’s integrity and durability.
- Maintain resale value: A well-maintained vehicle, including a chip-free windscreen, contributes positively to its resale value.
- Meet MOT standards: A chip in certain areas of the windscreen can result in an MOT failure. Prompt repair ensures the vehicle complies with MOT standards, preventing potential re-testing costs and the inconvenience of unexpected failure.
- Technological compatibility: Modern vehicles often have Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) that rely on a damage-free windscreen for optimal operation. Timely repairs ensure these systems function correctly.
Drive safe, drive smart.
