Can’t recommend this business enough! Derek really goes above and beyond for his customers. He is professional, reliable and straightforward and I am so, so happy with his work AND the fact that he saved me ££ by not carrying out/charging me for additional work that became unnecessary during the repair - thank you!

I can't recommend this place enough. Derek is a superstar. He fixed my Kia Rio dents and scuffs to perfection and in no time. Originally he said the work will take 3 days but he went the extra mile and fixed it for a day. Car was ready to be collected the day after. He also washed my car in and out and I have to tell you my car was never cleaner. It made me realise that the money I am constantly giving for car wash were total waste. Derek is also so very nice and friendly he will do his best to save your money and still fix your car to the highest standard. Don't think I can trust anyone else but him. Thanks DerekTina

Derek is great. His attention to detail and car and concern that he puts into his work is rare, unusual and much appreciated. My car is old and much loved and he repaired the damage with the same care and attention that I would have shown. I cannot recommend Derek highly enough.

First class service, would highly recommend.Superb job done and the icing on the cake was the honesty by owner Derek as I over paid and was called back immediately and given money back. Thank you again.

I had a scratch in my bonnet courtesy of a mindless vandal. Got a very reasonable quote from Derek and booked the car in. Derek repaired and resprayed the bonnet. Perfect colour match, quick turnaround for a very reasonable price. A very friendly, genuine bloke too. Highly recommend

Amazing job by Derek @ Pheonix, very happy with my car which I damaged badly on a metal fence, it now looks brand new! Repaired and painted perfectly, plus cleaned and polished :)

Took the car in with a small body repair I needed fixed urgently; Derek was a pleasure to work with and clearly has a wealth of experience in this area. Massively pleased that he managed to turn it around in such a tight timeframe...will be going back the next time someone decides to play bumper cars with me!
