What Counts as a Car Body Repair?

Car body repairs cover any damage to your vehicle’s exterior panels, bumpers, doors or frame. This includes:

  • Scrapes and scuffs from tight parking spaces or low-speed knocks
  • Dents from car park incidents or minor collisions
  • Scratches, whether from another vehicle, a gate post or general wear
  • Damage from road traffic accidents, ranging from cosmetic to structural
  • Rust repair on older panels or wheel arches

If you’re not sure whether your damage falls into one of these categories, get in touch and we’ll take a look.

My Car’s Been in an Accident, What Do I Do Now?

The first step is getting your vehicle properly assessed. At BlingMotors, our team will examine the damage, explain exactly what repair work is needed and give you an honest estimate, with no pressure to proceed until you’re ready.

Damage often looks worse than it actually is. A cracked bumper or a deep-looking dent can sometimes be repaired far more easily, and affordably, than expected, so it’s always worth getting a proper opinion before assuming the worst.

Do I Need to Go Through My Insurance?

Not necessarily. For minor damage, it’s often more cost-effective to pay for the repair directly, since claiming through insurance can affect your no claims discount and push up future premiums. For larger repairs, particularly after a road traffic accident, working through insurance may be the more sensible route.

BlingMotors is comfortable working either way. We regularly deal directly with insurance companies on our customers’ behalf, and we’re equally happy to provide a straightforward quote for anyone paying privately. We’ll talk you through which option makes the most sense for your situation.
