Body shop in Woking vs. mobile repair

[Harris_I]

The missus has cleverly managed to scrape three panels of her Qashqai against a wall. I'd rather not blow the insurance NCD so I'm looking for a value for money solution.

I used to use Ian at Spraytech. He was brilliant. Unfortunately he's sold up. Anyone used Spraytech under new ownership?

I know of Autocraft in West End. Anyone used them?

One final question: I see mobile repair services like AutoRestore seem to get reasonable reviews on TrustPilot and the like. It's not an Aston and to be fair my wife will probably only ding it again the moment it gets repaired so convenience and cost are king. Anyone tried them?

Thanks Vixpy. I'll have a wander down there as they're not far from me.

Thanks!

Slightly annoyingly my missus wasn't keen on going somewhere she had to learn a new route (I know, pathetic!) so my suggestions fell on deaf ears.

She ended up at Spraytech - the new guy seems affable but when the car came back there's a clear line where the new paint has not blended well with the old. I'm sure if she takes it back he seems like the kind of guy who will happily correct it, but when I suggested this to her she rolled her eyes and sighed. Well, it's her car I guess...

Moral: always follow PH advice!

Just to add: to be fair, he did a good job of repairing the plastic wheel arch lining which I thought looked unrepairable and resprayed a wing mirror housing for free.
