Wheel refurbishment

What alloy wheel damage can be repaired?

Most alloy damage is cosmetic — scuffs, kerb rash and small marks that can be tidied to restore a clean finish. Send photos and we’ll confirm what’s possible and the best approach.

Alloy refurbishment is ideal when the wheel has cosmetic marks that are noticeable from a distance or spoil the overall look of the car. We’ll advise the best finish option once we’ve seen the damage.

Wheel scuffs and kerb marks are also common issues before a lease return. If you are preparing a vehicle for inspection, see our lease return preparation service.

  • Kerb rash (edge scuffs) Common damage from kerbing wheels when parking.
  • Surface scuffs and scratches Marks and abrasions that make wheels look tired.
  • Cosmetic chips & small marks Tidy-ups to restore a cleaner, more consistent look.
  • Lease / resale prep Fresh wheels help first impressions and value.

FAQ

Alloy refurbishment — common questions

Unsure if your wheels are refurbishable? Send photos and we’ll advise the best route.

Can you fix kerb rash on alloys?

Yes — kerb rash is one of the most common wheel issues we see. Send a clear photo and we’ll advise the best refurbishment route.

Do I need all four wheels done?

Not necessarily. Many customers refurbish one or two wheels that have visible edge damage. We can quote per wheel from photos.

How long does refurbishment take?

Time depends on damage severity and how many wheels you’d like done. We’ll confirm an estimate when we quote.

Will the finish match my other wheels?

We aim for a consistent, tidy finish that matches the style of your existing wheels as closely as possible. Photos help us advise accurately.

The terms often overlap for cosmetic damage. Refurbishment usually focuses on restoring the finish of a wheel, while wheel repair can also describe fixing specific scuffs, scratches and kerb marks. We’ll advise the right approach from photos.

In many cases, yes — we’ll confirm any downtime expectations when we quote based on your wheels and finish type.
