Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What affects the price in Hillhead
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TQ5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
