If I give you my car how long will I be without it?"
It really depends
on several things. Firstly, type and extent of damage as
well as if it's a cosmetic and/or body shop repair. In
most cases if it's minor cosmetic damage repairs can be
done while you wait or outside your home/work. If it is
not cosmetic and has to be taken to one of our garages,
we aim to return vehicles to their owners within 3-4
days - minimising vehicle loss and inconvenience.
"Are you able to repair my bumper split and
severe scuffing to off-side skirting?"
Indeed we can. We'll
save you lot's of money and time by using a method of
plastic welding to fuse back the bumper to its original
state, colour match and re-spray. The skirting can be
restored without having to replace as well.
"Will
my wheels look like new?
Yes. In most cases only the
'trained eye' will detect that they are not factory
prepared but as our photos show they will look
great. .
"wheel refurbishing, will it add value to my car?"
Concerning value, wheels are
as important to a car as ones kitchen or garden is
important to ones home. These improvements add value.
"Can you colour match my wheels & bumper?"
Yes, colour matching can be done. It's also far faster
and easier if the paint codes are supplied. Obtaining
the colour code for an alloy is very difficult so in
some cases getting as close as possible is what is done.
"Do you lacquer the wheel?"
Yes we use the correct techniques on all vehicle repairs. Only the best two part
lacquer is used on all alloy and bodywork repairs. This
both protects and gives a glossy finish to the paintwork.
"Can you spray my rims
another colour (i.e white)?"
Your rims can be sprayed any colour, for an additional
£19.99 for one £29.99 for two or £49.99 for a
complete set of four. Paint swatches are not
used for this exclusive service so you'll have to
provide paint codes..
"I only have a little scuff
on my alloy... do I have to pay the full
amount?"
Prices vary depending on size
of alloy, type of alloy, damage etc. Check out the
alloy wheel refurbishment page for prices.
