Collections run mornings, deliveries afternoons. A set collected on a Thursday morning is back on the car Friday afternoon; a set collected Friday goes back on Monday, because nothing sits in the oven over a weekend.
Messages left outside hours are read first thing. If a car is off the road waiting on wheels, say so and it moves up the list.
What to send
- A photo of the worst wheelDaylight, straight on to the rim rather than at an angle, whole wheel in frame including the tyre.
- The wheel sizeIt is stamped on the tyre wall — the two-digit number after the R, so 225/40 R18 is an eighteen.
- How many need doingTwo or four. The set price is better per wheel, and matching is easier across a full set.
- The current finishPainted, powder coated, or a machined face with a bright shine. If you are not sure, the photo tells us.
- Your postcodeIt decides which collection day suits and whether you are inside the free-collection area.
None of it is essential to get a rough figure. It is the difference between one message and four.
Before you message
Quick answers
How quickly will I get a price?
Same working day for anything sent before about four o’clock. It is one of us typing it, between jobs, so it may be an hour rather than a minute — but it will be a figure rather than a request to ring back.
Will I get chased if I do not book?
No. You get the quote and that is the end of it unless you come back to us. We do not run a follow-up sequence and nobody will ring you a week later to ask if you have had a think.
Can I just turn up at the unit?
Better to ring first. Both of us are often out collecting or on mobile jobs, and you would find a shut shutter. If you want to drop wheels in, five minutes’ notice is usually enough.
Do you quote over the phone without a photo?
We will give you a range, and it will be a wide one. Kerb damage looks similar in description and very different in person — the gap between a scuff and a gouge through to the barrel is about eighty pounds a wheel.
A photo takes ten seconds and turns the range into a number.
What if my wheel is not worth repairing?
We tell you, and there is no charge for finding out. It happens most often with cracks through a spoke and with diamond-cut faces that have already been skimmed to the limit.
Finding the unit
Kestrel Court sits off Burrfields Road on the Airport Industrial Estate. Come in past the tyre place and we are the fourth shutter, with the pink stripe above it.
