Open Event Recap

Ebony Barker • October 1, 2025

We would like to say an immense thank you to everyone that joined us for our Grand Opening Event on Saturday 30th August.

Since getting the keys to our new premises in mid-May, the team have been working non-stop on the building to get it CARS-ready! It was amazing for us to be able to celebrate such an immense milestone with family, friends, customers, colleagues and suppliers.


Our new premises enables us to continue providing high-quality repairs, alongside tailored and trusted customer service. Our commitment to training, development and advances in equipment means we are able to carry out repairs to many vehicle types, including cars, vans, motorhomes and Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs).


As a reminder, our new address is:

Unit 25

Estate Road 8

South Humberside Industrial Estate

Grimsby

DN31 2TG

What accident repair teaches us about buying a used car

By Ebony Morgan • July 29, 2026
Most people buying a used car look at the mileage, service history and overall condition. We look much deeper. Years of repairing accident damaged vehicles has trained our eyes to spot things that many people would never notice. Subtle differences in paint finish, panel gaps, replacement panels, poor welding or signs of previous structural repairs can all reveal a vehicle's past, even when that damage has never appeared on an insurance database or history check.
