When you receive any form of car body damage the first thing you want to do is have it repaired, weather its stone chips, bumper scuffs, alloy wheels or dents you want the car to be put back to its original condition. You can either use a body shop or a smart repair service to carry out the body repairs that you require. If you live in London it's not so black and white, for example most body shops are located on the periphery of the London area and going out to them can be quite a hassle when you take in to consideration the traffic and time it would take to get there. Your best bet for using a body shop service is to find one that will come out to you for a quote and to pick the car up to be repaired if you wish to go ahead with the job.
Using a Smart Repair service can be more difficult for there are very few located in the London area and even fewer who are willing to go into London itself to carry out car body repairs. If you can find a Smart Repair service that is willing to come in to London to give a quote or even to carry out the job, you will find the prices will be greatly inflated. This is mainly down to the time it would take them to get to you through the traffic, in some cases they could have carried out a car body repair in the travel time it would take to get to you, so expect to pay a premium for the service. Another problem for the mobile car body repairer is parking, they need to be close to the vehicle they are repairing and in some cases it can't be possible due to the parking restrictions in most parts of London. If you still wish to use this type of service find one that offers an online quoting process, where you can email them photos of your damage in order to receive a quote, by doing this you will find out all the costs that you will incur to have your car body damage repaired.
If you don't wish to have a body shop or smart repair service to correct your car body damage then have ago yourself, it's cheaper in the long run.
