When to Use Mobile Body Repair Specialist from a Bodyshop?

Depending on the amount of damage to your vehicle, a mobile body repair specialist will usually be a better option than taking your car in to a body shop. Although a mobile automotive repair specialist can repair most superficial and aesthetic damage.

You may think that a mobile body repair specialist and a body shop are the same thing and perform the same service but there are some unique differences; the most important one being, price.

A mobile body repair specialist will have your car looking like new for a fraction of the price a dedicated body shop will charge you. The quality and service of a mobile body repair specialist is of a similar quality, but won’t leave you needing to take out a second mortgage to pay for your repairs.
A mobile body repair specialist can also save you money by not having to pay for a rental car whilst yours is out of action as we come to you as and when convenient, which leads me on to the next difference, convenience.mobile body repair specialist

If you live in the West Yorkshire or surrounding areas, we can be out to your home or place of work within a very short time, sometimes even in the same day. We will get the job done within the day whilst you’re at work or even out playing with the kids, wherever you plan to be for the day, we can come to you and repair your vehicle whilst you get on with your day. There’s absolutely no need for you to be without your vehicle for longer than you need to be.

Another fantastic benefit to using a mobile body repair specialist is that we use eco-friendly paints and as you know anything that can be done to help the environment is a great thing.

So there you have it, if you live in Leeds or the surrounding areas of west Yorkshire and are looking for a convenient, eco-friendly mobile car cosmetics company that will provide a high quality service and save you money then visit www.carcos.co.uk

Mobile Car Body Repairs vs Car Ins. Companies

Let’s face it insurance is never a good idea, insurance companies design their policies with one thing in mind and that is to take as much money from you as they can and give back as little as possible. You will always end up losing when it comes to insurance premiums and where possible it is best to avoid them. Sadly car insurance is one type of insurance that you cannot avoid everybody has to have it by law.
Motor accidents are never a pleasant experience; not only is the risk to your life and limb a serious concern but you also face the prospect of being without your vehicle whilst any damage is repaired and this is where you need to make a choice. Do you have it repaired through your car insurance company or do you use the services of a mobile car body repair service?

One might think claiming on your insurance is the best option, after all that is what we pay our premium for, however as mentioned earlier insurance policies are designed for only one thing and that is for the insurance company to make money. Claiming from your car insurance company will no doubt get your vehicle repaired and back on the road but there will be penalties for doing so. Firstly, you will usually have an excess that you will have to pay before you can get your car repaired, this can be anything from £50 to £500 depending on your policy. After making a claim your premium will no doubt increase at renewal time, you may well have a protected no claims bonus but your insurance company WILL increase your premium. This is because even though you have protected no claims discount your driving record is now not as flawless because you have a claim against your insurance company.
Car insurance is mandatory not a choice, therefore you want to keep your premium as low as possible each and every year and the best way to do that is by not claiming.
After an accident using the services of a mobile car body repair specialist may seem like an un-necessary expense when you have taken out car insurance but it will usually save you much more money in the long run.
You may initially pay out more than your insurance excess but what you save short term you will pay for long term and usually much more too.
Unless your car has serious major damage, a mobile car body repair specialist can restore your car to its former state all from outside your own home and place of work. Saving you time taking it to a repair shop and also saving you lots of money.
You don’t have a choice when it comes to motor insurance but you can choose not to give them more money than you need to and instead choose the services of a mobile car cosmetics specialist.

Car Keying

Nov 30 2013

Car Keying Why People Do It and How to Have it Repaired

If you are the victim of car keying crime it is unwise to use your insurance policy to fix the repair, it will cost you more in the long run due to increases in premiums and excesses. As annoying as it is you should bite the bullet and pay for the repair yourself. A mobile repair specialist is fast, reliable and high quality and will save you more money and time than using a repair centre.

Car KeyingOne of the worst things that can happen to your car is it gets scratched, it’s bad enough when you do it yourself by accident because you have driven too close to some over-hanging bushes but when somebody else scratches your car especially when they do it deliberately the feeling we get is absolutely gut wrenching.

Until car manufacturers come up with a way to paint their cars with scratch proof paint, car keying is here to stay. According to a recent survey 57% of Britons have admitted to scratching the car of somebody they know and that’s just the number of people that have admitted it. The survey also found that 70% admitted to scratching the car of somebody they don’t know and 16% admitted scratching a car merely because they didn’t like the look of the person who was driving it.

Other reasons given for keying cars were, “the driver was a show off”, “the driver cut me up on the road or annoyed me some other way” and outright envy and jealousy.
So what can you do to prevent this happening to your precious vehicle?
Well sadly there is no guaranteed way to stop this happening but you can take precautions. You should always try to park in a sensible area, although the results of the survey showed that teenagers were not the only culprits, avoiding parking where gangs of youths hang out is always wise, that includes outside schools and colleges. You should always try to park in a well-lit area of a street or road and you should always try to park near other vehicles, don’t leave your car in an isolated location.

 Mobile Car Body Repairs

But even if you take these precautions you can still get your car keyed, it happens to us all at one time or another. Well if this does happen you can take your car to a professional car body repair specialist or better still have a mobile car body repair specialist come to you to repair the damage, mobile car body repair specialists are often 50% cheaper than repair centres.
Car Cosmetics specialists can fix and repair any aesthetical damage to your vehicle and it is totally undetectable to the human eye. You would never even know there has been any damage; your car will once more look like it has just come from the manufacturer’s showroom.

Alloy Wheel Repairs

We repair damage to alloy rims and spokes caused by kerbs or other factors, which looks both unsightly and can detract from your vehicles value. All marks, pitting and damage can all be repaired back to the original manufacturers. There is no need to remove the tyre or even the wheel from the vehicle, we do not even need to take or send your wheels away.  All repairs can be carried out on the vehicle, on site at your location by our mobile car body repairs service and normally takes on average, one hour per alloy wheel.

Alloy wheel corrosion is becoming a common problem on cars, due to the extreme weather conditions to be found in the UK during the winter months. This may result in peeling lacquer, bubbling of the surface of the wheel.
Our unique repair systems enables us to take the surface of the wheel back to ”bare metal” and completely repair the wheel back to show room condition.  The processes are much the same as a normal alloy wheel repair but may take a little longer to complete.

Colour Matching

Further to customer requests Car Cosmetics can now colour code bumpers or wing mirrors to a colour of your choice. We also offer colour changing of alloy wheels from normal factory silver to white, gun metal grey to your car body colour. All this still can be done in our mobile car body repairs service.
