Our History
Who we are
The business was established in 1963 by Brian Rhodes on a small site on Healey Road. In 1965 he moved to the present site. Paul joined his father in 1981 and together over the years they have expanded the business and employed more staff. The business and building is on a continuous modernisation programme to ensure that we keep up to date with all the latest techniques in vehicle body repair. All the staff are experienced and offer a friendly efficient service, with the personal touch.

Fleet Customers, Contract and Lease Vehicles
We specialise in checking lease vehicles for damage before they are returned to the leasing company. We can repair small areas of bumpers, rather than replace and spray the whole unit; this saves a lot of time and money. Most panel marks and scratches can be machine polished out, which again, saves spraying the complete panel.
We understand that most company vehicles are working vehicles, and so time off the road is important - hence our fast turnaround service.
- Save vehicle off-road time
- Save money
- Save insurance claims
- Save large, unknown, charges from lease companies
- Full control over vehicle costs before returning vehicle
- Fast turnaround service
