Structural Damage
Accidents or collisions causing substantial structural damage require a visit to a bodyshop or putting a claim through your car insurance. Such damage compromises your car’s frame integrity and can be challenging to repair, affecting alignment and safety. Professional assistance is crucial for both cosmetic and functional reasons. Note that we do not provide repairs for roofs, bonnets, or majorly dented or cracked panels.
Types of Car Body Damage
Driving in Plymouth can be challenging, especially with its narrow cobbled streets in areas like the Barbican district and the unique architecture around the Royal William Yard. Navigating the busy streets around the Plymouth Hoe and the Barbican can put your vehicle’s bodywork at risk of scratches and dents. Understanding the type of minor damage your car has suffered is the first step to returning it to look as good as new.
Minor Dents
When parking in a tight space, you may find unexpected dents or dings on your car upon your return. These imperfections can be caused by a neighbouring car’s door swinging open too fast or a minor bump from another vehicle. However, rest assured that our skilled technicians can expertly remove small car dents. They carefully apply filler to restore the panel to its original shape and skillfully blend paint onto the affected area to ensure a perfectly colour matched repair that integrates with the surrounding panels.
Bumper Damage and Bumper Scuffs
Our team of Fresh Car technicians can come to Plymouth to repair bumper scuffs and damage, including bumper corner repairs. We are able to remove scratches and scuffs from both front and rear bumpers. The damaged area will be sanded, painted, and polished.
Paintwork Damage
We specialise in repairing paintwork scratches and scuffs on various parts of your car, such as the wings, doors, rear quarter panels, tailgates, sills, and A-posts. Our technicians start by assessing the extent of the damage and masking around the area to be painted. Then, they sand and prime the panel before using paint colour matching technology to create a perfect match to your car’s factory finish. Finally, they use a spray gun to apply the paint and blend it for a virtually unnoticeable repair. We also offer a paint correction service called machine polishing. This can help with removing any scratches or swirls from your car’s paintwork, making it look shiny and new.
Alloy Wheel Repairs
Alloy wheels are prone to scratches, scuffs, and minor dents from kerbs and road debris. Our technicians are skilled in repairing and refurbishing alloy wheels, restoring them to their original condition. The process involves cleaning, sanding, filling, and repainting the wheels to ensure they look as good as new.
Stone Chips
Our technicians are skilled at providing paint touch-ups for road rash and stone chip repairs caused by loose chippings and grit on the road surface. Stone chip repairs are usually completed within an hour or two.
Minor Dents
If you park in a tight space, you might return to find unexpected dents or dings on your car. These imperfections can be caused by a neighbouring car’s door swinging open too fast or a minor bump from another vehicle. Small car dents can be removed with the right expertise. Our technicians carefully apply filler to restore the panel to its original shape. Then, they skillfully blend paint onto the affected area to ensure the repair blends with the surrounding panels.
