How much for a few trolley dings to be sorted.
 
Hello just looking for some feedback I've got 3 trolley dings on my car that I wanted sorting, been quoted £150 for me that sounds extortionate? Or perhaps I'm just being a cheapskate.
any feedback appreciated, also I'm in the Wiltshire area if anyone knows of a good honest garage to go to. Thanks for any help.

Hi,
I have heard of many good dent removal guys taking around 50 to 50 pounds per dent to remove, based on that suppose 150 not far off the mark if doing them through a company. Think if you can get to know the guys and contact them directly you can get them a good but cheaper. Up in Scotland so cannot recommend anyone near you.

Cheers

Appreciate the reply, thankyou. At least I know that its a fair price.

How sharp/deep are the trolley dings? Will they need to send them, fill them and paint them, or can the be pushed back out?
If they're going to need paint then £150 is a decent price.
I'd also recommend that for paint don't go for the cheapest. Blending new paint into old is tricky and can look really bad if done by someone in a rush.

Hi they are not very deep, very minor if I can I'll post pics, thanks for the feedback.

Charlie76 21 March 2019 10:26 PM

Can I just ask was it someone you knew? Don't suppose close to Wiltshire? Lol

No mate he was doing my mates car and had a look at mine at the time was well happy with the price and results but he's in south wales

Dent men usually charge per panel not per dent.

Just check your glass as they can scratch it. Speak from experience sadly due to my dent guys son working on my car

One of my good friends works for dentifix and gas done for about 10 years. He does my whole car and friends cars for £100 for the whole car cash in hand. Gotta be around west London tho!

Charlie76 24 March 2019 07:56 PM

I think it does help to have friends in the trade doesn't it. Especially for that price for the whole car.
i would much prefer someone I know near my car rather than a garage I don't know, my worst fear would be picking my car up and it having more damaged than before it went in, especially from reading an earlier comment about the glass.
