Mobile refurbishers carry out cosmetic repairs which means they lay new products over the top of old and do not strip the wheel right back. MyAlloys strip the whole wheel back to the bare meatal and refurbish the entire area from scratch. You can learn more about our process here.
Depending on the service required, a standard refurbishment will take approximately 2-3 working days to turn around. A diamond turned or diamond cut wheel takes 3-4 days.
For repairs such as welds and straightens we usually book the car in for a 4 hour am or pm slot and the car is left with us to work on. We do have a priority while you wait option where you can pay an extra £17+vat charge and book a specific timeslot for the work to be carried out. When this option is used our technician will be ready and waiting for you and complete the work whilst you wait in reception. (Repairs take between 30 minutes to 1 hour). This option must be booked in advance.
