Clear instructions and texts to remind me. The windscreen was replaced in 3 hrs (including recalibration of the sensors and connecting the windscreen heater). Faster than the 4hrs i was told. Job well done.

Replacement Windscreen Fit and Finish

Recently had a windscreen replacement and whilst the staff were kind and helpful, I wouldn't say the finish on the replacement was very good.

When inspecting the rubber seal / moulding / trim that sits in the channel between the windscreen and frame, the curved corner on the drivers side (on the top of the windscreen) does not sit correctly, and rubber seal is wavy across the roof line, not straight as it was before.

This seal is supposedly (according to the staff) decorative and shouldn't affect water tightness (not yet tested), nonetheless I would have appreciated the fitter spending a bit more time to ensure this seal was evenly fitted especially being a visible decorative seal / rubber trim.

Not entirely sure I would use National Windscreens again.

We appreciate you sharing your recent experience with us. We are concerned to hear that the finish of your windscreen replacement did not meet your expectations, particularly regarding the fit of the rubber seal. We understand your disappointment that this visible trim is not sitting as straight as it should be, even if it's considered decorative. We are committed to ensuring a high standard of workmanship, and we take your feedback seriously. We will be reviewing our fitting procedures to ensure such issues are addressed.

Couldn’t Thank Daniel and Gareth Enough for Their Help

I honestly cannot thank Daniel and Gareth at the National Windscreens Canterbury branch enough.

After driving down from the North West on Thursday to catch the Le Shuttle to France on Friday morning, we discovered our windscreen had been badly smashed overnight. The call centre initially told us there was no availability until the following Wednesday, which immediately caused panic about missing our holiday and how we would even get home.

Thankfully, we were then contacted by the Canterbury branch, who told us they could start early the next morning and help us out. They later called back and managed to fit us in at 2pm the same day instead. I can’t tell you the relief after that phone call! And we were back on the road by 3pm.

From start to finish, Daniel and Gareth were kind, compassionate, and genuinely determined to help. They turned a very stressful situation into something completely manageable, and we are incredibly grateful for their effort and professionalism. Not all hero’s wear capes!!

An absolute credit to the company.

Would I recommend them? Without hesitation.

Would have been useful to know in advance there was a quiet area with WiFi where I could have done some work. Maybe put that on your booking confirmation e mails and text what facilities are available
