Is your car looking a bit worse for wear? A cosmetic repair may be the solution you need.

During a SMART repair – which stands for Small to Medium Area Repair Technology – a mechanic uses specialised tools and materials on the damaged area of the vehicle.

That means there’s no need to remove entire vehicle panels – these repairs focus instead on localised areas using specialist tooling and paints.

This saves you the time and money of a traditional body repair shop service, which would have taken days instead of mere hours to complete.

If your car’s scuffed appearance is getting your day off to a bad start, turn things around by booking a cosmetic repair.

 

What Is a Cosmetic Repair on a Car?

A cosmetic repair fixes superficial damage on the car’s body.

These are imperfections which likely don’t impact the safety or performance of the car.

Think dents, scratches, and chips caused by things like minor collisions or falling hailstones.

If you want them fixed, a professional cosmetic repair is your best bet.

 

What Will I Get When I Book a Cosmetic Repair?

Examples of SMART cosmetic repairs you can book include:

If the damage is more extensive – for instance, you require an accident repair or have collision damage – then a full body repair may be required instead.

Extensive corrosion, cracked or split bumpers, and bonnet or panel repainting are also examples that will require full repairs.

It’s worth noting that whilst most bodyshops can do SMART repairs, not all SMART repairers can do full bodyshop work.

  • You can maintain your car’s value
