How bodywork repair works
Select the damaged panels on the professional vehicle diagram, describe the damage and add at least one clear photo.
Our system suggests roadside or workshop; our team reviews the photos and confirms the route, price and availability.
Your preferred date may change until confirmed. Suitable light damage can be repaired at your address; workshop work is arranged with collection and return.

Repair the damage or value the vehicle for scrap?
Body damage does not automatically mean a car should be scrapped. The sensible route depends on safety, repair scope, insurer classification and the vehicle's wider condition.
Keep and repair
Use the photo-led bodywork request when the vehicle is repairable and you want the damage assessed. Structural repair or replacement affecting recorded vehicle details may require additional DVLA steps.
