ABOUT SALES WORK
First impressions sell vehicles
Buyers decide within seconds of seeing your advert photos or walking up to the car. Scuffs, scratches and dents make a car look tired, even when it runs perfectly.
We tidy up the visible damage before you sell: bumpers, dents, scratches and panels, all painted to match.
For dealers and traders, we offer a trade discount, can work through vehicles regularly, and price the work up front so you know your margins.

Is it worth repairing before I sell?
Often, yes. Small repairs usually cost less than what buyers knock off for visible damage. Send photos and we’ll give you an honest view.
Do you work with dealers?
Yes. Dealers and motor traders get a trade discount, and every job is priced up front so you know your margins.
How quickly can it be ready?
Most tidy-ups are done the same day.
Can you fix more than one car at a time?
[Your answer – e.g. yes, for trade customers we can book several vehicles in.]
