I’m delighted to be able to recommend Smash Paintwork - who carried out some rust repairs and paintwork to our much cherished classic Volvo. The work was carried out to a fantastic standard - the car looks superb and really turns heads again, now it is in immaculate condition. The entire team are a real credit to the business and maintain the highest quality in everything they do - I dealt with Nico, Jordan and Lucy specifically. Thank you to everyone in the team at Smash Paintwork.

Nico and the team were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. They did a cracking job smoothing out the front bumper and removing the number plate holder and holes. Great comms throughout, lots of useful info and advice and a decent price too. Thoroughly recommend giving them a shout if you need bodywork, paint or alloys.

I recently took my car to Smash Paintwork for some bodywork, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the fantastic job they did. From the moment I contacted Nico, he was keen to take the car in, kept me updated throughout the process, and actually finished the work two days earlier than promised. The repair work was absolutely flawless and genuinely made me fall in love with my car again. If you need any bodywork done on your vehicle, look no further. The team is extremely professional, pays great attention to detail, and clearly cares about putting smiles on their customers’ faces. They’re passionate about what they do and take real pride in their work – a rare find these days.

Was a pleasure dealing with Nico and the team, from start to finish. The guys at smash paintwork did an excellent job on my pride & joy E46 M3. Had the front bumper, side skirt, front driver side wing, rear bumper & all 4 wheels refurbed. Came out looking brand new like from factory. Will be using them for any future work and cant recommend them enough. 5*

A very happy customer. I was introduced to Nico at Smash Paintwork by a very fastidious detailer so from the outset I knew that I was going to receive some quality work on my speed yellow GT3, specifically a front end respray. Note, the front end was to be PPFd after the paint so quality and finish were paramount!! Nico mentioned about 1000 times that it was a very tough colour to blend and match and I wanted to retain as much of the original paint as possible. Nico not only delivered above and beyond with the quality finish but even had the car delivered via covered trailer, superb. What was also really useful if you’re a geek like me, is Nico keeps you updated on WhatsApp every step of the way. If you want a quality job, look no further.

Proper, genuine five star service from Nico at Smash! From the very start of our interactions, I knew I was on to a winner selecting Smash to revive my MK1 TT’s ageing appearance. He’s responsive, professional, knowledgable and has an attention to detail that’s verging on obsessive, in an ace way! I had the roof, gutter rails, boot, spoiler and front bumper painted. While it was there I asked Nico to look at the metal sills/side skirts too, as I’d spotted a bit of rust. When he sent me photos of what was really lurking underneath them, we agreed to replace both of them with brand new OEM sills, which he protected thoroughly inside and out before painting. The finish and colour match is just fantastic; I’m so so impressed with how it has turned out! It’s like having a new car! Thank you!

Nico did an absolutely fantastic job on some damage to the corners of my Jaguar XE and to the 2 front alloys. Everything now looks good as new! The colour match is great and he was a pleasure to deal with throughout! Thanks Nico!

Nico did a fantastic job on my BMW Z4 respraying bonnet (largest he has done!), bumper and rear wing as badly stone chipped, scuffed and slightly dented. Really pleased with the result and would recommend him to anyone. Thanks Nico!
