Panel Beating
Getting the Shape Right Comes First
Good paint can’t hide a poorly shaped panel. Our panel beaters work damaged metal back to its original lines, checking the panel against the rest of the car before any filler or primer goes on.
Where a panel can’t be repaired properly, we’ll tell you and explain the replacement option, so you can make the call with clear information.
- Door, fender and bonnet dents
- Creased and folded panels
- Quarter panel and sill damage
- Panel alignment and gap checks
- Minimal, skilled use of body filler
- Panel replacement where repair isn’t sensible

Straight answers
Panel Beating Questions
Can every dent be panel beaten out?
Most can, but stretched metal or damage on a crumple zone sometimes means replacement is the better repair. We’ll explain what we find at assessment.
Will the repaired panel need painting?
Usually, yes. Unless a dent is suitable for paintless removal, a reshaped panel is primed and refinished to match the rest of the car.
How much will it cost?
It depends on the size, position and depth of the damage. Send us photos on WhatsApp for a first idea, followed by an assessment at the workshop.
