What to Expect at Your Windshield Replacement Appointment
by NJ Payless Auto Glass on 10/27/13
You probably haven't had to purchase many windshield
replacements, if any. So you may have some questions concerning the way auto
glass replacement appointments are scheduled. Here's a look at what happens on
the day of your appointment:
Four-Hour Appointment Blocks
With mobile auto glass replacement appointments, it's
virtually impossible for technicians to give you a specific time that they will
arrive. This is because, due to the nature of the business, unexpected things
often happen. A windshield installation may be more difficult than expected
(this is especially true on brand-new vehicle models or automobiles that have
rust or other damage around the windshield installation area).
Several things can lead to a technician running behind
schedule—waiting for a customer to arrive at an appointment, the incorrect auto
glass being specified for an installation, or difficulty finding the
appointment location. To make it easier for both technician and customer, all
auto glass shops schedule in blocks of time. If everything goes according to
plan throughout the day, a technician will arrive at the earlier part of the
time block, but if the previous installation takes longer, you can still get
your auto glass replacement that day—the time block acts as a buffer, just in
case.
Pre-Appointment Phone Call
NJ Payless Auto Glass generally give
you a call to let you know when they're on the way so you can prepare for the
appointment if you need to. Give the installer a phone number (such as a cell
phone) that they'll be able to reach you at during your appointment time block.
No Need to Take a Day Off Work to Schedule Your Appointment
The vast majority of installations are performed via mobile
service, and you can set up a mobile appointment at any location you choose:
your home, work, a neighbor's house, etc. Many auto glass technicians even
offer "absent appointments," meaning that you don't have to be there
while the installation is taking place. If an appointment during the week
doesn't work for you, ask your auto
glass technician about the possibility of a weekend appointment—most
technicians have Saturday appointments available for at least half of the day.
Glass and Materials Clean-Up
If your auto glass was broken and there are shards of glass
in and around your car, your NJ Payless Auto Glass installer will do his or her best to vacuum or
sweep all the broken glass up. Also, you can expect your technician to clean up
any debris caused by the installation—broken glass, old moldings, stripped
urethane, and other materials.
