How it Works 

You can request your booking in seconds, with no long forms to fill out or pre-payment required. Just follow this five-step process to request an appointment at the right cosmetic repairer for you. 

  1. Enter your reg and postcode 
  2. Use our ‘splat’ tool which helps you correctly select your car’s damage and estimate the right cosmetic repair. You can select multiple repairs across multiple panels as part of your estimate (full price breakdown available in estimate details)
  3. Compare instant estimates from local repairers to find the best one for your needs 
  4. Select a suitable date and time and enter a few contact details to request a booking 
  5. Upload images of the damaged area(s). This will help your chosen repairer ensure you’ve requested the correct repair and been shown the right estimate.

 

Your chosen repairer will always double-check your selection before confirming the final price as well as the appointment details.

You can also book scratch and dent repairs on our platform.

Why Would I Not Just Go Through My Insurer? 

Although it might seem more convenient to make a claim through your insurance policy, booking a SMART (Small to Medium Area Repair Technology) repair yourself is usually the better long-term option – especially if you’ve worked hard to build up your no-claims discount. 

Making any sort of claim on your insurance may reset this, so why would you want to waste all your hard work on something you can easily sort on your own? 

Taking control of your SMART repair will also ensure your insurance premiums don’t rise in the long-term and, when you don’t have to worry about paying any excess, you might also be able to get a great deal in the process. 

You should still let your insurance provider know about any accidents or collisions, especially if there was another vehicle involved, even if you don’t plan on making a claim on your policy.

 

Effortless Comparison Helps You Choose the Repairer You Want

Once you’ve entered your vehicle and damage details, we’ll show you every local repairer on our platform so you can compare your options and request a booking at the perfect one for you.

There are a range of static and mobile repairers available, all of whom set their own prices – so what you see is what you’ll pay (unless you agree to additional work with them directly or need a different bumper repair).

And with verified, unfiltered reviews from real customers available for each repairer, you always get the peace of mind that comes with booking the best deal.

When you’ve got this much control, why would you let your insurer dictate who is going to fix your car?

 

Be proactive about your bumper repair and ensure you get the very best deal by comparing instant estimates through BookMyGarage.com and completing a booking request in seconds.

Not only will you avoid paying your insurance excess by booking your car’s repair yourself, but you can also save up to 70% by comparing deals through BookMyGarage.com and choosing a lower-cost option - it's really as simple as that!

 

Frequently asked questions

How do you generate estimates for my SMART repair?

Every repairer provides us with their hourly prices for labour and materials (consumables). We enter this into a pricing matrix along with the length of time needed for each SMART repair to generate our estimates. This means the price is linked to the type of cosmetic damage you’ve suffered rather than your vehicle type or engine size.

Why do I need to provide images of the damage?

Repairers cannot confirm your booking until they have seen the damage for themselves as this helps them ensure you have booked the right repair and been shown the right estimate.

Providing images to help with this process ensures your estimate can be updated if you’ve selected the incorrect damage, avoiding your estimate significantly increasing when you arrive for your SMART repair.

Does a SMART repair affect my no-claims bonus?

No, if you’ve booked your SMART repair yourself it will not affect your no-claims bonus as you haven’t made a claim on your insurance policy.

You also don’t need to let your insurer know about any SMART repairs when it’s time to renew your policy, so it won’t result in a potential premium increase either.

Can I get a SMART repair completed at home to make my life easier?

Yes, there are many mobile repairers on our platform who can complete SMART repairs on your driveway to ensure they fit better into your busy life.

These listings are marked with a blue ‘Mobile’ badge to make it easier for you to see who can come and complete your cosmetic repair at home.

Will the price change after I book my appointment?

Every repairer sets and updates their own prices, so your estimate shouldn’t change if you’ve selected the correct damage.

If you’ve received estimates for a small scratch and it turns out your car needs a large scratch repair, for example, the price may change after the repairer reviews the images you upload.

When do I pay for my repair?

We never ask for payment details upfront.

Once you’ve chosen a repairer, you deal with them directly from start to finish, paying only after the work is complete – giving you full peace of mind.

What level of damage means my bumper needs replacing instead?

Minor surface damage, small scratches or dents and any other general cosmetic damage can be easily repaired. If your bumper is loose, cracked or split, misaligned with the mountings or there’s any severe paint damage or dents that can’t be pulled out, you will need to replace it instead.

A bumper replacement is a collision repair which repairers on our network are unable to complete. If your car needs one, you’ll need to go through your insurer or book directly with a local bodyshop.

Can I repair my bumper myself?

You may be able to complete minor bumper repairs at home using specialist auto care products. However, it’s best to book an appointment with a local repairer for best results.

If your bumper is severely damaged, you will not be able to repair it at home.

Can I get my bumper repaired at home to make my life easier?

Yes, many SMART repairers offer a mobile service, completing your bumper repair at home or work to better fit it into your life.

We clearly mark these listings with a mobile badge, so you can easily see who offers mobile bumper repairs in your area.

How do I know whether I need a bumper repair or replacement?

If your bumper is severely damaged, it’s likely you need a collision repair rather than a SMART repair. In these cases, you will need to make a claim through your insurer or book an appointment at a specialist bodyshop as repairers on our platform are unable to help.

Minor surface damage, small scratches or dents and any other general cosmetic damage can be easily repaired. If your bumper is loose, cracked or split, misaligned with the mountings or there’s any severe paint damage or dents that can’t be pulled out, you’ll need to replace the entire thing.

Does a bumper repair affect my no-claims bonus?

A bumper repair may affect your no-claims bonus if booked through your insurer. You may also have to pay your policy’s excess if you fix it this way.

Self-booking your repair will not affect your no-claims bonus and you don’t have to declare it to your insurer as long as you didn’t collide with another vehicle or a pedestrian.
