Windscreen wiper replacement FAQs
How often should wiper blades be changed?
We recommend the blades are changed every 9-12 months, or when the blades become faulty and struggle to clean the windscreen effectively. The signs of the blades being faulty include squeaking, smudging or dirt being streaked across the windscreen instead of wiped away.
How long does replacing the wipers take?
The windscreen repair or replacement will take an extra five to ten minutes after your vehicle glass has been repaired or replaced.
What causes wiper blades to become faulty?
- Damage from sunlight and temperature
- Deterioration from age
- Chemicals and solvents
- Damage from dirt or grime
- Lifespan has been exceeded
