Rear window

Unlike a windscreen, in most cases, if a rear window is damaged it will need to be replaced.

 

We understand that this can be stressful. That's why we'll clear any visible broken glass in your vehicle and complete the replacement using glass that's as good as the original. 

 

Replacing a rear window

Watch our short presentation to see how we can replace your damaged rear window.

A damaged rear windowStep 1: Getting your vehicle ready

Before we replace the rear window we ensure that we protect your vehicle's bodywork and interior by covering these areas.

We make sure that we remove as much of the shattered glass from your vehicle as possible, even cleaning the interior. Next, we cut and remove the seals or glue holding the rear window in place and remove if from the vehicle.

We then apply a primer to the vehicle's framework and allow it to dry, before applying a special bonding glue to the new rear window to ensure a strong and proper fit is achieved.

The new rear window is then carefully fitted into the vehicle and any original fittings are replaced. After 60 minutes, the glue is set enough to make it safe for the vehicle to be driven away.
