Before
AfterStock that photographs well sells faster
Every scuffed bumper and kerbed wheel on your forecourt is either a discount conversation waiting to happen or a repair that pays for itself. We work with dealers, traders, valeters and garages across Kent to keep stock retail-ready without the bodyshop bottleneck.
Send photos of each vehicle (or a stock list with images) and we’ll return itemised pricing. We can work on site at your premises or take batches through the workshop — whichever keeps your prep line moving.

Guide prices
Honest guide prices — a ballpark from your photos, the final figure confirmed at inspection.
| Repair | Guide price |
|---|---|
| Trade repair support | Quote / account pricing available |
| Multi-vehicle batch visits | Itemised per vehicle |
| Regular weekly/fortnightly visits | By arrangement |
Prices are guide prices only. Final quote depends on damage size, location, paint type, colour, access, weather, and whether the repair is mobile-suitable or workshop-suitable. Send photos for an accurate ballpark.
What affects the price
- Volume and regularity of work
- On-site at your premises vs workshop batches
- Mix of repairs per vehicle
- Turnaround requirements
Mobile or workshop?
We can run repair days at your site — power and a corner of the yard is enough — or collect batches into the workshop. Most trade clients settle into a regular rhythm: send photos as stock lands, we prep in batches.
How to send photos for the fastest quote
- One close-up of the damage, about 30–50cm away
- One wider shot showing the whole panel or wheel
- Vehicle make, model and colour (a photo of the whole car helps)
- Your postcode so we can confirm coverage
- Whether you’d prefer mobile or workshop
Daylight photos work best. Don’t worry about making it look good — we’re used to reading real-world photos.

Why photos first?
Photos let us quote quickly and honestly. We can usually tell straight away whether a mark will respond to SMART repair, whether it needs the workshop, or whether a bodyshop is the better route. That saves you time — and means the price we give you is one we can stand behind at inspection.
Trade questions
Do you offer trade account pricing?
Yes — regular trade customers get account pricing and priority booking. Rates depend on volume and repair mix.
Can you work at our premises?
Yes, for suitable repairs. We bring everything needed; you provide power and space.
How do we send work to you?
WhatsApp photos per vehicle works well, or email a stock list with images. We return itemised quotes, usually same day.
What turnaround can we expect?
Typical prep repairs are same-day per vehicle. Batch scheduling is agreed up front so your sales team knows when stock is ready.
