We are a family owned, medium sized independent business where customer care and quality of work is paramount.

Our staff are not paid by an aggressive bonus scheme like the larger body repair centres as it only promotes poor, sub standard work and an unhappy workforce. We are extremely proud of our staff and their positive attitude to the quality of work they produce. Testament to this is the high level of repeat business and referrals we enjoy from our ever increasing customer base.

Free estimates

We offer free estimates, while you wait and without an appointment. Simply turn up between 8.00am and 5.30pm and we will prepare a detailed estimate free of charge. The estimate can be faxed by us direct to an insurance company or anyone of your choice, which might speed up the claims process.

With the addition of the very latest in Bodyshop Estimating Systems, we have the capability to produce a comprehensive, detailed estimate which is accepted by all insurance companies. With digital imaging, we can photograph the damage to your vehicle and e-mail it to your insurance company attached to the detailed estimate. This can make the processing of your claim quicker and more efficient.

Any Size Job

We are equipped to deal with any size job, from a multi-thousand of pounds accident repair to spraying the cover of a door mirror.

It might be very heavy, medium or light impact accident damage, dents and scrapes of any shape or size, vandal scratches or damage, bumper scuffs, small annoying dents or scratches, or any work that involves replacement or rectification to any body/bumper panels on any car or light commercial vehicle.

Insurance Work

We are able to undertake work on behalf on any insurance company. If you are involved in an accident where the repairs are going to be dealt with by an insurance company, be it your insurance company or the third parties insurance company, we can help you deal with the claim to expedite the process.

We will issue an estimate while you wait using the very latest in estimating technology, and process this through the relevant insurance company. Should an engineer wish to inspect your vehicle, we can arrange for this to take place at our premises, and negotiate the repairs with the engineer.

Once the insurance company have issued us with an authority, we can commence the repairs. When the repair is completed, we simply invoice the insurance company directly.

5 Year Guarantee

All our work is guaranteed against poor workmanship for a period of 5 Years.

Free Courtasy Cars

We operate a fleet of nearly new courtesy cars which can be loaned free of charge whilst your vehicle is being repaired. The only provisions being that you are over 23 years old, and are able to transfer your Fully Comprehensive insurance to cover the courtesy car whilst it is under your control.

Spray Bake Ovens

We have two Spray Bake Ovens within which the vehicles are sprayed. Once the vehicle has been sprayed in this controlled and sealed environment, the paint is then “baked” onto the panel. This replicates the process adopted by the factory when the car is new, and ensures the paint will last as long as the original finish.

Paint Matching Scheme

All our paint is mixed in house using a fully computerised matching system. By taking the colour code from your vehicles identification plate we can match any paint colour within our own paint mixing room. In the unlikely event that a colour code is not available, we have access to a piece of equipment which will take a special photograph of the paint to be matched, and give us a mixing formulation to match the colour.

The paint we use in all our repairs is produced by a company called “PPG”. They are one of the largest car paint manufacturers in the world, and recently acquired the ICI car paint business. PPG paint is the standard finish on many new cars, being applied at the time of manufacturer.

Body Jig

Should your vehicle be involved in a serious accident where the body might need re-alignment, we have a Body Jig to do the job. This ensures any repairs are carried out exactly, ensuring your vehicle is repaired to its exact factory dimensions.

Fleet Business

One area we feel we are very good at is looking after the body repair requirements of company car fleets.

For the last ten years we have been the approved repairer to one of the countries largest PLC companies, which has given us a broad and wide experience of dealing with corporate clients. We go out of our way to service the needs of all our customers which can make life a little easier for the company fleet manager.

In an effort to combat excessive reconditioning charges by leasing companies when a car is returned at the end of a lease, we offer a service which is designed to reduce the fleet owners running costs.

When a car is coming to the end of its lease, after inspecting the vehicle, we can produce a free estimate to bring the car up to the condition that will satisfy the “condition terms” of the lease. As well as rectifying accident damage, scuffs and dents by conventional repair methods, we are able to remove lighter blemishes, scratches and dents without the need for potentially costly re-spray work. The benefit of adopting this procedure is that you have total control of your running costs, opposed to the leasing company inflicting you with heavy penalties for inflated repair costs when the car has been returned to them.
