Wiper Blades Fitted in Nottingham

A pair of wiper blades is supplied and fitted from £20, including VAT. The exact price depends on your car and the blades it takes, so pop in or send us your reg and we’ll tell you before we fit anything.

Usually 10 to 15 minutes, and you can wait while we do it. There’s no need to book: come in any time we’re open, or WhatsApp us your reg first and we’ll have your blades ready.

Your registration is all we need. Blade lengths and the fittings that attach them to the arm (hook, pin, push-button and others) vary between makes and models, and many cars use a different length on the driver’s and passenger’s side. We match the blades to your car so they fit first time.

Most motoring guides, including the RAC’s, suggest every 6 to 12 months, and sooner if they start to streak, smear, judder or squeak. Sun, frost and grime all age the rubber, so blades can wear out even if you don’t use them much.

Streaks or smears on the glass, patches the blade misses, juddering or squeaking as it moves, and rubber that’s split, cracked or hard to the touch. If you notice any of these, it’s time for new blades.

They can. Under the DVSA’s MOT inspection manual, a windscreen wiper that’s missing or not working, or a blade that obviously isn’t clearing the windscreen, is a major fault and an MOT fail. A blade that’s worn but still clearing the screen is usually recorded as a minor fault, which doesn’t fail the test but is worth sorting.

Your washers are tested too: they must work and give enough fluid to clear the screen. Rear wipers aren’t part of the MOT. New front blades before your test are a cheap way to avoid a fail.

Yes. The Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations say your wipers and washers must be kept in efficient working order, and you must have a full view of the road ahead. Breaking these rules is an offence that can mean a fine of up to £1,000 if it goes to court.

Yes. Our price covers the blades and the fitting together, from £20 a pair including VAT, so there’s no separate fitting fee to add on.

We only fit wiper blades we supply. One price covers the blades and the fitting, and we match them to your car.

We usually recommend changing the front blades as a pair. They’ve done the same work and worn at the same rate, and a new blade on one side only can make the old one look worse by comparison.

Yes. Rear blades wear just like front ones, and they often get forgotten. We can fit a rear blade on its own or at the same time as your front pair.

Conventional blades use a metal frame to hold the rubber against the glass. Flat (beam or aero) blades have no frame; a built-in spring presses them evenly along their length, and their slim shape helps them stay on the glass at speed. Hybrid blades combine the two. We’ll fit the type that suits your car.

We fit quality blades from brands including Bosch and Trico. We’ll suggest the right blades for your car and tell you the price first.

Of course. We sell wiper blades over the counter at our Bulwell shop and in our online shop. On some newer cars the wipers have to be put into a service position before the blades will come off, so if yours won’t budge, we can fit them for you.

We’re at 2-4 Carey Road, Bulwell, Nottingham NG6 8AT, with parking for when you visit. We’re open Monday to Friday 9am to 5.30pm and Saturday 9am to 1pm.
