Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including West View. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
