Paint/dent experts?

Can anyone recommend a company who can repair dents/scratches or any paintwork?

Ideally in the Surrey/Berks area and good value would be nice too [img]images/graemlins/3flypigs.gif[/img]

Thanks,
Gareth.

Chipsaway seem to be the company to use but they are franchised so personal recommendation would be nice (there is one in Slyfield Industrial estate in Guildford)

Do you know if they do both paint and chips/dents?

I will have to give them a call I think...

When I had a subaru the dealer arranged for Chipsaway to repaint a scuff mark on a quarter bumper, the colour match wasn't great and every time I polished the painted bumper the paint colour was left on the polishing cloth and it became so bad that the entire bumper was repainted properly by the dealer.

like said earlier it depends on who does it. Ive have chipsaway out for dents and touch ups and it was top notch, but yes i have heard horror stories, and yes I would get a recommendation.
Good luck
