Alloy refurbishment
in Gosport
Round the harbour rather than across it, so it shares a run with Fareham. Coastal, which shows in the wheels, and mostly easy to get a van beside a car.

Coastal without the parking problem
Gosport gets the salt but not the permit streets, which makes it one of the more straightforward places we work.
The corrosion pattern here looks like Southsea — lacquer lifting from rim edges, white worm on machined faces — because the exposure is similar. Lee-on-Solent in particular sits right on the water.
What is different is access. Most of Gosport is estate housing with driveways and room to work, so mobile kerb repair is usually a simple job rather than a negotiation.
Because it is round the harbour rather than across it, we run Gosport with Fareham. That is worth knowing: if you are flexible on the day, you will get an earlier slot.
Where we collect from
What changes by street is mostly parking and how much salt the car sees. The work and the price do not.
Gosport town
Mixed housing, mostly off-street. Easy access.

On the water. The worst for salt in this postcode.

PO12Rowner
Wide roads and space to work.
PO13Elson
Straightforward, easy collection.
PO12Hardway
Near the water, so worth a sealant.
PO12Stubbington side
Shared with the Fareham run.
PO14The local questions
Do you come round the harbour or across it?
Round. It is about thirty minutes and it is built into the slot, so it does not affect your price or your wait.
Is Lee-on-Solent worse for corrosion?
Yes, appreciably. Anything parked within sight of the water there takes a beating. We recommend a sealant after refinishing more often in Lee than anywhere except Hayling.
Can you do kerb repair at my house?
Almost always in Gosport. The access is good and there are few permit restrictions to work around.
Which day do you come?
Gosport shares a run with Fareham, usually once or twice a week. Ring and we will tell you the next one.
