Where did our story begin?
The founder of Hek Windscreens, John, began his career in the windscreen industry in 2005, initially working as a windscreen fitter and mechanic. However, he didn’t remain a fitter for long, quickly progressing to a management role within the company.
After graduating from the University of Bolton with a degree in Business Management, John used his knowledge and experience to identify a gap in the market. This led him to establish his own business, and thus, Hek Windscreens was born. Based in London, John started the company with just two vans and two technicians. The business soon began to grow rapidly.
Recognizing the importance of quality, Hek Windscreens decided to import high-quality windscreens from various overseas manufacturers. This strategic move addressed the issue of substandard windscreens in the market and ensured customers received the best products available.
As the company expanded, it opened new depots, including a facility in Hanger Lane, North West London, in 2023. Hek Windscreens now boasts a team of reliable, IMI-qualified technicians who provide exceptional service. They operate in local areas, offering same-day and emergency repairs and replacements for all types of vehicle glass, both domestic and foreign.
Over the years, the company has catered to both B2C and B2B clients. At Hek Windscreens, we pride ourselves on delivering expert glazing services to over 1,000 dealerships, MOT centers, body shops, and motor traders. Our success is built on a commitment to quality and competitive pricing.
Although we are based in North West London, we cover London and the surrounding areas. Our professional team of windscreen engineers is available seven days a week, from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., ensuring quick response times. In most cases, a fitter can be with you within an hour—whether at your home, office, or roadside—helping you get back on the road as quickly as possible.
