Frequently asked questions

Body shops handle accident damage, panel dents, scratches, scuffs, rust treatment, full resprays, structural repairs, and replacement of damaged panels. Many also offer SMART repair for minor cosmetic damage that doesn't require full panel replacement.

For significant accident damage, it's usually worth claiming. For smaller cosmetic jobs — a bumper scuff or a minor scratch — paying privately is often cheaper than risking a premium increase at renewal. Get quotes from local body shops first before deciding.

Minor SMART repairs can be completed in a few hours. Panel replacements and full resprays typically take 3–7 working days. Structural accident repairs may take longer depending on parts availability. Your body shop will provide a time estimate at assessment.

A skilled body shop uses computerised colour-matching systems to blend the new paint seamlessly with surrounding panels. The result should be imperceptible to the eye. Ask to see examples of previous work when choosing a body shop.

SMART stands for Small to Medium Area Repair Technology. It's a cost-effective method for repairing minor chips, scratches, and dents without replacing the entire panel. It's faster, cheaper, and less disruptive than traditional bodywork.
