Scratch repair

Hi

Can anyone recommend a body shop for some scratches that someone has kindly given my “Black Panther” in the Tyne & Wear area.

 

Cheers

 Hi Dorothy,

You could try these, they are a national company (Man with Van). I have had work done with our local chap and his work was very good and reasonably priced.

Had a quote from Chipsaway for £330 for,

a: A sctrach 12" long

b: Small rust spot on the rear wheel arch

c: 2 dints on the passenger door

thought this was very expensive for £330, surely a complete body respray wouldn’t be that much more. Can anyone please give me some advice.

Cheers

 That is dear, Try someone else .

My brother inlaw works for himself and does smart repairs ( which is what you need) He charges £40-£60 per panel so about £120 for what you want.

Ther are lots about just try to get one that is recomended as there are also lots of cowboys.

 I agree that does sound whey to expensive, it is always best to get several quotes and one from a recognised bodyshop as a bench mark.

Thanks for the reply everyone, will look in to Smart Repairs, I’m sure there is one local to me in Sunderland.
