A paint or restoration job means the vehicle stays with us for a while, so most people drop it off and pick it up once it's done. If it doesn't run or isn't road legal, tell us when you send the job.

What we do

  • Custom paintOne-off colours, two-tones and show finishes, laid down in the booth.
  • RestorationRusty, tired or half finished. Brought back properly, panel by panel.
  • BodyworkRot cut out, dents knocked out and gaps set right before any paint goes on.
  • Strip-downsTrim, glass and fittings off first, so the paint goes everywhere it should.
  • Body repairDents, scratches, scuffed bumpers and accident damage on everyday cars and vans.
  • Lease return repairsMarks put right before the lease car goes back, instead of paying the charges.
  • Engine modificationsEngine work alongside the paint and bodywork, with the bay done while the engine is out.
