Body Shop vs Mobile 'Smart Repair'

Mobile 'smart repair' vans and traditional body shops both have their place. Knowing which suits your job saves money and disappointment.

What smart repair does well

For very small, localised marks β€” a minor scuff or a small scratch β€” a mobile repair can be quick and convenient. It's designed for little cosmetic touch-ups.

Where a body shop wins

For anything larger β€” a full panel, a proper colour-match and blend, a respray, rust or accident damage β€” a workshop with a controlled, baked booth gives a far better, longer-lasting finish. Weather and dust don't get a vote.

The honest answer

It comes down to the size and location of the damage. Bring the car to us and we'll tell you straight whether it's a quick job or one worth doing properly in the booth β€” and we won't oversell you.
