SMART Repairs, what are they I hear you ask?
SMART repair techniques have been developed to help maintain a vehicle in pristine condition without traditional expensive time consuming body shop repairs. It lends itself well to repairing scuffs, chips and scratches that affect the look and value of a vehicle. SMART repair techniques use state of the art techniques and products technicians ensure the highest standards of work, preserving the integrity of the original trim. These techniques have been used by garages for many years, but are still relatively unknown with car owners in 7.3.1AdamsdownAdamsdown .
Carpet repair is quite common as a lot of modern vehicles have fairly thin carpets that get damaged quite easily. Our carpet repair technician is the most experienced in the area. Car manufacturers are having to save weight in an effort to improve fuel efficiency and to make the car environmentally friendly. This results in some parts of the vehicle being less robust. It has become noticeable over the last few years that a lot of vehicle carpets are now much lighter and thinner. The end result is carpets are being damaged more often. It is quite common to see vehicles that are only a few years old with holes or rips in them often just from normal use.

Car seats are expensive and time consuming to replace. Car seat repairs are a cost effective solution offering you expert repairs for all types of typical vehicle seat damage. Most car seat damage can be easily repaired, including cigarette burns, holes from wear and tear or accidental damage. Some patterned seats present a problem – we could not invisibly repair a check or chequered pattern for example. A few modern seat designs seem to include a mesh or net effect over the top of the basic fabric & are very prone to being easily caught by zips etc. This type of car seat repair is also hard to repair.

Leather seats are easily scratched but don’t worry a leather seat repair can help, we have a specialised leather repair technique that allows for invisible repairs to leather car seats. The same system can also be used on vinyl seats, however we can not fix vinyl/leatherette that is breaking up or cracking, a common fault on some modern cars. It is not impossible to tidy them up but it would not be a long lasting solution – so for this type of repair we would highly recommend using a specialised car upholsterer to replace the damaged panel. We can repair discoloured seats or worn seats, small holes and cigarette burns in both leather and vinyl.

Car Body and Paint Repairs
SMART is an acronym and typically stands for Small to Medium Area Repair Technique.
SMART Repair as a specific and recognized discipline has only been around for 15 years or so and has grown rapidly as mainstream automotive dealers now embrace the repair as a professional repair. Previously all bodywork restoration had been carried out with traditional equipment and techniques and involved painting or repairing entire and adjoining panels even when the damage was small.
As the name suggests, the system began as an alternative to full re-sprays for chipped paint and evolved from there into an entirely new discipline, related to but separate from bodyshop techniques, able to professionally repair all the everyday damage a vehicle is likely to acquire.
There are numerous techniques employed today and the technology and materials are ever evolving but typically, the following disciplines are typically delivered as SMART Repair:
• Paint Spot Repair - Chips, scuffs, scratches for most areas of the car bodywork.
• Alloy Wheel Repair - kerbed alloy rims, scratched alloys
• Paintless Dent Removal (PDR) - dents, dings
• Windshield Repair - bulleye's, small cracks
• Plastic Trim Repair - cracked bumpers, mirror casing cracks
• Interior Repair - cigarette burns, cracked dashboards, leather wear and fade
