Role overview

An automotive glazing technician removes, fits, and repairs windscreens and vehicle glass on cars, vans, and other vehicles, often working for specialist glass repair companies or as part of a mobile service responding to customers at their home or workplace. Apprentices learn to use adhesive bonding systems, recalibrate advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), and repair stone chips to a professional standard. This role can lead to glazing supervisor, technical specialist, or van-based franchise operation.
