Steep lanes, stone walls and barely enough room to pass. Bradford on Avon is hard on paintwork, and most of the damage comes out without any.
📞 01225 000 000Bradford on Avon is one of the tightest towns we work in. The streets climbing away from the Town Bridge were built for carts, the parking is on a hill more often than not, and passing another car frequently means one of you is hard against a stone wall. It is a beautiful place and it is tough on bodywork.
Because of that, the damage here skews towards creases and door edges rather than simple dings. A folded door edge from a wall or a gatepost is a weekly job for us in this town, and it is one of the repairs where paintless really earns its keep, since a bodyshop would normally want to fill the fold and respray the whole door.
The station and the town centre parking add the rest. Both fill early and both are tight, so cars sit door to door all day. Add the residents' parking on the steeper terraces, where a car may be squeezed into a space with a wall on one side and a neighbour on the other, and the pattern is set.
Bradford on Avon means walls and edges. Folded door edges from stone walls, garages and gateposts, creases along a door or wing from a tight passing place, and the usual round door dings from parking side by side at the station and in town.
Four steps from the photo on your phone to the dent being gone. No garage visit just to find out what it costs.
Every repair below is priced on the damage itself rather than a menu, because two dents the same size can take very different amounts of work. Send a photo and you get a fixed price back before anyone touches the car. There is no charge for looking at a picture and telling you what we think.
Bradford on Avon sits on the western edge of our patch, close to Trowbridge and Melksham.
