Kerb rash repair for drivers in Hendon

After the repair, the rim edge runs smooth and even again, and you'd struggle to say which wheel met the kerb. We strip the scraped section back to bare metal, reshape and fill it, then refinish it to match the rest of the wheel. Drivers in Hendon can send a photo and see the cost before deciding anything.

Is kerb rash repair worth it?

Repairing a kerbed wheel keeps the one that came with the car, in the same finish as the other three. A replacement wheel may not sit quite right beside the rest of the set, which tends to show once the car is clean. The way we do it has earned more than 1,400 five-star Trustpilot reviews, and Shmee150 has filmed a video review of the work we did on his wheels.

Lacquer back over the repair

A fresh coat of lacquer closes off the metal that the kerb exposed.

A matched set

The repaired section is refinished to the wheel's existing finish, so all four look alike from the kerbside.

Questions worth asking before you book

Is the damaged area stripped to bare metal? Yes, so the new finish has clean alloy to bond to.
Is it matched to the wheel's own finish? It is, from the colour and sheen already on that wheel.
Can deeper damage be straightened in-house? Yes, straightening and welding both happen at Crown Road.
Is there a mobile option for light scuffs? Light marks may suit a mobile repair, though it may not last as long as an oven-finished workshop job, so send your postcode and we'll confirm.

A wheel's lacquer is a sealed skin over the paint and the metal. Scrape it on a kerb and that seal is broken, letting rainwater and winter road salt sit against bare alloy. Corrosion starts at the scrape and spreads sideways beneath the finish you can still see, lifting it as it goes. That's why a scuff that's a few weeks old is usually a contained job on one section of the rim. Give it a winter or two and the bubbling can reach well round the edge, and the repair grows from a touch-up to a strip and refinish of the whole wheel.

What Hendon drivers ask about kerb rash repair

When is a wheel better replaced than repaired?

Cracks in certain places or a severe buckle can make a wheel unsafe to repair. Your photo usually shows us, and we tell you before you book anything.

Will the repair show afterwards?

Refinished to match the wheel and lacquered over, the repaired section reads as part of the same finish.

What happens if I'm unhappy with how it looks?

Point it out when you collect. You see the wheels before paying, since payment is on completion, and all our work is backed by a satisfaction guarantee.
