About us
A note from the owner
My father Gene started here as an apprentice spraypainter in 1974 and bought the business in 1990. I’ve worked in this shop since I was sixteen, running it day to day for more than ten years before recently taking over ownership from my father.
Most of our work comes through insurers. We liaise with the insurer and the manufacturer, repair every vehicle to specification, and make sure the person driving it away shouldn’t be able to tell where the damage was. That’s the whole job.
If you need us, call the workshop. We will tell you plainly what happens next.

The equipment has been renewed over the years. The jig, the booths and paint systems are current. What hasn’t changed is the same family answering the phone.
