Windscreen Replacement Service in Kent
If your windscreen has been damaged enough that it needs to be replaced, it’s not unusual to also find other damage has been done that can affect systems within the vehicle that interact with the glass; for example, the camera controlling a lane departure warning system.
Our teams carry specialist equipment to ‘pre-scan’ your vehicle in these circumstances and fit your windscreen into place. We will then assist with the reattachment and re-programming of this technology.
Smile Windscreens technicians have the qualifications and experience to undertake this work, and all of our technicians possess IMI Accreditation.

Quality Work
We source our windscreens from three major suppliers all trusted and respected by the automotive industry. Windscreens must meet rigorous safety standards, which we ensure ours always do. Where possible your windscreen repair will meet original equipment standards.
When you arrange a quote, we’ll give you an approximate fitting time and provide you with a safe drive away time. As the name suggests, this is the amount of time the adhesive must be given to cure before it’s safe to drive the vehicle away. At this point the glue is secure, but it is still not fully cured; we would recommend that the vehicle not be washed for the first three days to allow the adhesive to fully cure.
The safe drive away time will take longer the heavier the screen, so some commercial vehicles may have to remain in place for longer.
Our work comes with a full 12 month warranty; we will also carry out an inspection between the removal of the old windscreen and the installation of the new one in order to identify any hidden structural issues (rust, etc.)
Don’t worry about your old windscreen; our team will take it with us when we leave and we’ll send it on for recycling in line with the terms of our waste licence.
