Hi All, can anyone recommend somewhere that might be able to repair a small tear in the roof of my car, plus some that can do general reconditioning? I'd like some in the south west ideally; Berkshire, Oxon, Surrey, Hampshire ideally, but could travel into London (I'm in Reading).
Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure many firms would be happy repairing a tear as it would be very difficult to make watertight, most trimmers would prefer to take the roof off to effect any repairs which is itself the bulk of the labour cost. It's worth ringing around a few trimmers as I did and reached the conclusion of buying a new roof to guarantee being water tight. Depends on budget and long term intentions for the car too I suppose.

I used these people http://www.hothoods.co.uk/ who can travel to you, they did a new roof for me for £700 inc. fitting and guarantee.
