Get your car ready for lease return
and help avoid end charges.
Small scuffs, scratches, dents and alloy marks can add up at inspection time. Send photos of anything you’re unsure about and we’ll recommend the most cost-effective tidy-up before handback.
What to check before handback
If you’re not sure what’s worth fixing, send photos and we’ll guide you. These are the most common cosmetic issues that can trigger charges at inspection.
The aim is simple: tidy up the noticeable cosmetic damage so the car presents cleanly at inspection. We’ll recommend the work that’s most likely to save you money — not unnecessary extras.
-
Bumper scuffs & corner marks Often the first thing an inspector notices.
-
Scratches & paintwork damage Key marks and deeper scratches that break through the clearcoat.
-
Dents and light accident damage Small dents with paint damage can be costly if left.
-
Alloy wheel scuffs Curb rash can stand out quickly on modern wheels.

What affects the price?
Lease return prep is usually a combination of small repairs. The best way to quote is from photos so we can recommend the most cost-effective tidy-up plan.
Lease return prep — common questions
Not sure if a mark is “wear and tear” or chargeable? Send photos and we’ll advise.
Is it worth repairing before a lease inspection?
Often, yes — especially for visible bumper scuffs, scratches, dents and alloy marks. Send photos and we’ll advise what’s most likely to save you money.
Can you tell from photos what’s worth fixing?
In most cases, yes. A close-up and a wider shot helps us judge the damage and where it sits on the panel.
How close to handback can I book?
Ideally allow a bit of breathing room, but if you’re tight on time, send photos and we’ll advise what can realistically be done.
Do you do multiple repairs in one visit?
Yes — many customers have a small list of items. We’ll recommend the best plan and confirm timing when we quote.
Can you come to my workplace?
Often, yes. As long as there’s safe access around the vehicle, we can usually work at home or at work.

Steve was honestly amazing. He repaired a dent in my car and it looks brand new. Such an amazing job and so friendly too. Couldn’t recommend more.
Had a dent no other body shop would touch. Ultra Smart fixed it with a totally seamless blend of paint. Tidy and professional.
Steve came from Felixstowe to Great Yarmouth and repaired our car to showroom condition. Highly recommended.
Bodywork that looked almost beyond repair came out looking brand new. Super skilful and dependable.
Used Steve many times for alloy wheel refurb and bodywork repairs. Consistently excellent work.
Came out on a weekend to fit my schedule. Professional service and spot-on results.
