Typical damage
The damage we repair
We deliberately do not do everything. We do a narrow set of cosmetic repairs, at volume, to a standard that is independently audited - 59,514 of them in 2023 alone.
Panel scratch repair
A scratch that stays in the lacquer is purely cosmetic. Once it reaches bare metal, corrosion can start to spread under the surrounding paint, so deeper scratches are best repaired sooner rather than later.
- Key scratches down a door or wing
- Car-park scrapes along the flank
- Trolley marks and gate rash
- Scratches through to primer or metal

Bumper scuff restoration
Bumpers pick up most low-speed damage, and replacing one is expensive. A scuffed corner can usually be repaired in place for a fraction of the cost of a new painted bumper.
- Kerbed bumper corners
- Scuffs from tight parking spaces
- Low-speed car-park contact
- Scraped front spoilers and lips

Panel dent removal
Most everyday dents are small and shallow, but easy to spot in the right light. They're well suited to mobile repair, because the panel doesn't need to come off the car.
- Door dings from adjacent cars
- Shopping-trolley dents
- Shallow creases in wings and doors
- Dents where the paint is unbroken
6,074 completed in 2023
Wing mirror cover replacement
Mirror covers are easily clipped on narrow roads. In most cases only the painted cover needs replacing, not the complete mirror assembly.
- Cracked or shattered mirror covers
- Covers lost on narrow lanes
- Scuffed mirror housings
- Faded or peeling mirror paint
