Book NowBook NowBumper scuffs, scratches, minor dents, and kerbed or buckled alloys, repaired at your home or workplace. Croydon is a borough of two very different halves — and of roads that are hard on wheels — so we quote around where your car actually sits.
Home · workplace · driveway CR0 has a larger population than any other postcode district in the UK, so the range of jobs we see here is wider than anywhere else we cover.
Bumper scuffs, scratches and minor dents — including paintless dent repair on suitable panels.

Kerbed, scuffed and pothole-buckled rims, including diamond-cut finishes where suitable.
View service →
Leather seats, cabin trim and worn surfaces restored — no road space needed at all.
View service →
A full interior and exterior valet at your address, best with off-street space.
View service →
Mobile replacement, which matters on a borough where road surfaces do real damage.
View service →
At-location help for urgent problems, with a clear scope of what it covers.
View service →Ask anyone who works across the borough: the north end and the south end need different planning. We quote for both, but the visit looks nothing alike.
Terraced streets and estates, very little off-street parking, and a higher share of older, higher-mileage vehicles. Expect more kerbside work and more parking negotiation.
Detached and semi-detached housing with driveways dominates, and the car parc is newer and more premium. This is where a driveway visit produces the best finish.
Croydon is the only London borough with a tram network, and that changes where a mobile repair is possible in the centre.

Where George Street narrows to a single shared lane, we can’t work in the running lane. Central jobs usually need a side street or an off-street spot nearby, and we’ll agree which before booking.
The A23 retail parks and the Fiveways junction by the Waddon railway bridge carry constant turning traffic. A car park bay there is often easier than the kerb.
Around the ground, roads such as Holmesdale Road and Elm Park Road close to non-permit holders from roughly two hours before kick-off. We plan appointments around fixtures.
Seven postcode districts, and a borough that runs from the town centre out to Coulsdon and New Addington.
There is no CR1, and CR9, CR44 and CR90 aren’t real places — they’re non-geographic PO-box districts, so we don’t list them. Parts of CR3 (Caterham, Whyteleafe) sit in Surrey and aren’t part of the borough, and SE19, SE20 and SE25 cross the Lambeth and Bromley boundaries. Send your postcode and we’ll confirm rather than guess.

What actually decides whether a repair can happen where your car is parked.
Croydon’s roads are busy and heavily used, and a kerbed or buckled alloy is one of the most common things we’re asked to look at. Kerb rash we can usually refinish. A wheel that’s been properly bent by a pothole is a different conversation, and we’ll say so honestly when we see the photo rather than take a booking that won’t come out right.
Where George Street narrows to a single shared lane, the rails are set into the carriageway itself. That’s not a place anyone can safely stop and work, so central Croydon jobs are usually done on a side street or in an off-street space a short walk away. We’ll agree the exact spot with you before the visit.
Shirley, Sanderstead, Selsdon, Purley, Coulsdon and Kenley are mostly driveway territory, and that’s the best possible setup: room to work around one side of the car, shelter from the weather, and a cleaner finish. If you have a driveway, mention it — it changes how we plan the job.
Controlled parking is enforced around the ground on matchdays, with roads such as Holmesdale Road and Elm Park Road closed to non-permit holders from about two hours before kick-off until after full time. If your appointment lands on a fixture, tell us and we’ll move it rather than spend the slot looking for somewhere to stand.
A large share of Croydon cars are on lease or PCP, particularly in the south of the borough. Kerbed alloys and bumper corner scuffs are the two items that get flagged at inspection most often, and sorting them before the inspection is normally much cheaper than the end-of-contract recharge.
Most repairers don’t tell you what they’ll turn down. We’d rather you knew before you send photos.
If your photos show one of these we’ll say so straight away and explain what kind of repair you actually need.
The whole borough. That means Croydon and Addiscombe, Woodside, Waddon, Selhurst, Broad Green, Shirley, Sanderstead, Selsdon, Addington, New Addington, Forestdale, Thornton Heath, South Norwood, Purley, Coulsdon, Old Coulsdon, Kenley and Reedham. Send your postcode and we’ll confirm straight away, along with whether the location suits mobile work.
Not on the running lane itself. Where George Street narrows to a single shared lane, the rails are set into the carriageway, and stopping there isn’t safe or legal. For central addresses we’ll agree a side street or an off-street space a short distance away and work there.
It depends how far out of true the wheel is. Kerb rash and scuffing we can usually refinish. If it’s been genuinely bent, a refurbishment alone may not be the right answer, and a wheel that’s structurally compromised needs replacing. Send a photo and we’ll tell you honestly which category you’re in.
Sometimes. Diamond-cut finishes need a lathe to recut the face, so it isn’t always a mobile job depending on the damage and the wheel. Send a photo of the wheel and we’ll tell you what’s realistic before you book.
It varies with the damage — a light corner scuff and a bumper needing refinishing across a wider area are different jobs. Once we’ve seen your photos we can give a realistic estimate so you can plan your day.
Yes, and it’s a large part of what we do in the south of the borough. Kerbed alloys and bumper corners are the two items most often flagged at inspection. Getting them assessed before the inspection is normally far cheaper than the end-of-contract recharge.
Yes — those are inside our Croydon coverage, along with Old Coulsdon, Reedham, Sanderstead, Selsdon and Warlingham. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll quote for your actual address, so you know the figure before anyone travels.
We’d move it. Croydon enforces controlled parking around the ground on matchdays, with roads such as Holmesdale Road and Elm Park Road closed to non-permit holders from roughly two hours before kick-off until after full time. Tell us when you book and we’ll plan around the fixture.
Often, yes — because only the damaged area is refinished rather than a whole panel or the car going into a booth. But it depends entirely on the damage, so we can’t give you a figure until we’ve seen photos. Anything that needs a booth or panel replacement isn’t a mobile job, and we’ll say so.
It’s the same mobile team, so jobs can often be combined — alloy refurbishment with bodywork repair, or an interior restoration with a premium valet. Mention everything when you send photos.
Send photos, your Croydon postcode and whether you’re on a driveway or kerbside. We’ll review the damage, work out a sensible place to stand, and confirm whether a mobile visit works for your address.
