Identify whether the car needs care or repair
A tired finish, deep scratch and accident dent need very different attention. For drivers in Strathaven, photographs and a clear description help us identify the likely route before assessment. Detailing can improve built-up grime and neglected surfaces, but it will not mend broken paint or distorted bodywork. A scratch may need preparation and refinishing, while impact damage can involve claim coordination, panel work and several repair stages. We explain the distinction so you do not book cosmetic care for a fault that needs body-shop equipment.


Understand who approves and pays for the work
Privately arranged cosmetic work is agreed directly with you, and we can provide a free vehicle repair quote. Insurance-funded accident repair needs claim information and authorisation before the work begins. For an accepted non-fault claim, the at-fault insurer pays for the repair, leaving no excess or repair bill for you. Customers in Strathaven can send vehicle details, accident circumstances and damage images to start the discussion. We then guide you towards detailing, paint repair or the full accident process.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need detailing or a paint repair?
Detailing suits grime, dulled surfaces and general presentation. A deep scratch, exposed surface or broken paint needs preparation and refinishing instead. Send photographs and we can discuss the likely service.
How does private work differ from insurance repair?
We agree privately funded work and payment directly with you. Insurance repairs require claim information and authorisation from the funding insurer before approved body and paint work can proceed.
Will I pay an excess on a non-fault claim?
Not where the claim is accepted as non-fault and the at-fault insurer funds the repair. In that situation, you do not pay a policy excess or vehicle repair bill. Claim acceptance must first be established.
