James came to our school to repair damage to a Teachers car after an unfortunate accident during a sponsored car wash. James turned up on time, assessed the damage, got started and the workmanship is outstanding. The Teacher is over the moon and so are we. If you have any repairs of this nature, you do not need to look any further than James and Up To Scratch. Brian Baughan - Anglesey Primary School.

scruffs to my back bumper from a run away driver

Up to Scratch came to look at my car the very next day and fixed it on the spot, I was told the scratch was'nt as bad as it looked and buffed away leaving a small scratch which the paint was mixed on the spot and scratch repaired. This bloke not only fixed my car after only having it for 7 day and being hit and driver drove off but he also saved me a lot of money and beat everyone else's quotes. Will always use and recommend Up to scratch from now on, his customer service is second to none and he also left me with a pot of paint too.

Would definitely recommend James for any surface repair. This is the second time myself and family have asked James to repair damage to the cars and on both times he has done an excellent job, you can’t even tell there was damage. He has great communication, always gets back to you ASAP and lets you know if there’s any problems. He was prompt and arrived when he said he would. He’s a very polite and friendly gentleman. His pricing is great, and what he quotes is what it cost. Top marks all round would really recommend.

My Toyota Yaris is by no means new, but I was quite distressed when it received deep scratches on the rear door and also a small dent. Although James admitted it would be a difficult job the result is absolutely amazing. The bodywork was restored as new and no sign of the dent. The price was also very reasonable. James obviously takes great pride in his work and is only satisfied with perfection. I wholeheartedly recommend him.

What an amazing Job completed today by James of Up to Scratch. The bonnet which had scratches from a car wash looks as good as new. The handle on my rear window hatch is completely gone and the new paint job looks great. The solution to the deep scratch on my rear bumper has worked a treat too. And just as important the cost of all of this work was extremely reasonable. Very pleased with all of this work I can highly recommend James to anyone needing some scratch repairs done on their car.

Excellent Bumper Repair

James made a simply excellent job of sorting out a carelessly acquired bumper scuff on my otherwise shiny new Volvo SUV. He is a most friendly and helpful gentleman and something of a perfectionist in this line of work, so I would recommend his services unhesitatingly.

What a brilliant job James did came to do a bumper and ended up doing my sons alloy as well which looks like its new. Texted the night before to let us know what time he would arrive which is very polite. Very nice chap and a great trader was here from 8.15 to 3.15 what a grafter. Will be passing his number on to friends and family as he's mobile as well which is great. Thanks a lot James.
