Excellent bumper repair

A couple of weeks ago, James repaired our rear bumper, which had been scraped in a car park. He kept us notified of his schedule, arrived accordingly and set to work. He was very pleasant and easy to work with. Most importantly, he was very thorough, attentive to detail and did an amazing job. It's almost impossible, even if you know what you're looking for, to see the repair. He also repaired a crack that I hadn't noticed, for no extra charge.

The job was to repair two lots of scratches to the bodywork front and rear of my beloved mini. James was very friendly and helpful and did a thoroughly professional job. My five year old car looked like new and I am delighted and relieved. James charged the amount that he had quoted. We would definitely recommend James and Up to Scratch to anyone.

I had call to use Up To Scratch which was recomended to me by another of my local heroes Dave the dent. I was so pleased with how I was made to feel important although my job was very small compared to most jobs we need doing. The part was painted and I can't tell the difference between the original paint and the newly sprayed part. The whole process was absolutely fantastic and I will now be using Up To Scratch for all my needs and recomending the service to all my friends and collegues. Thank you so much for looking after me James you are a real gentleman.

My wife and I have used Up to Scratch for many years. James is always prompt, courteous and very good at what he does. I had a really bad dent and scratches along my car's rear offside wing, following my careless encounter with a metal post ! James worked his magic on dent and scratch removal, followed by a spray of paint...... And it now looks as good as new and no one would know it was ever damaged ! I strongly recommend Up to Scratch for anyone requiring car bodywork repairs.

James came to my home and gave me, what I considered to be a very fair price. We agreed a date and James came on that day and kept to the quoted price. The standard of his work was outstanding. James was polite and courteous throughout and worked very hard. I found the experience totally hassle free and was delighted with the finished job. Further more, James is a thoroughly nice chap and so easy to get along with. I would recommend with confidence. Thank you James.

Contacted James at Up to Scratch to quote for scratch repair on 04/01/23. Received an instant response requesting detailed photos of the areas affected. Within 15 minutes had a quotation that was accepted and agreed. Due to a cancellation James was able to fit me in the following day. Due to precise detailed preparation and James’ skill and expertise, the results are immaculate. You would never know that there had been any scratches in the areas addressed. James also spotted a couple of areas that he had missed in the photos and took care of those at no extra cost. Great service. I would not hesitate to use James’ service again and would strongly recommend up to Scratch.

Someone dented near side rear door that would have been expensive to repair. James skill fully disguised the dent with colour match paint making it hardly noticeable and hard to find. Providing a prompt and professional affordable service.

Having had previous experience of James' excellent work on my car two years ago I had no hesitation in calling him to work his magic on some scratches and a broken wing mirror resulting from a too rapid reversal out of my garage. Although this was a fairly small job compared with previously it was carried out with the same expertise and thoroughness as before. James obviously takes a great pride in his work and is happy to explain the procedures involved to someone not mechanically minded.

James did a great job on my Moms car. He came a while ago to quote and then booked an appointment to come to my house to do the work. He kept to the quote though found a bit more work than expected and he came on time. He’s a lovely man and very hard working. His work was faultless. I’d recommend him to anyone.

After discovering my car had been damaged whilst parked, I came across James’ page on Facebook where I could WhatsApp him for a quote. James replied extremely quickly with not only a very reasonable price, but he could complete the job outside my home. When he arrived he was lovely and helpful going above and beyond to complete the job to a professional standard, which has left my car looking brand new. Would recommend again and again.
