However, that is exactly what you get with Wickford Autocentre.

These include but are not limited to; MOTs / Servicing / Tyres / Nitrogen Tyre Inflation / Brakes / Auto diagnostics / Air condition servicing / Timing belts / Head gasket / All major repairs undertaken / Accident management services. Economical servicing options for are available every pocket and we also offer up to 12months parts and labour warranties to ensure total customer confidence.

With a transparent, competitive and fair pricing strategy, a significant number of private car users are making a switch to Wickford Autocentre.

Frequently asked questions on accident repair

Will my car insurance cover non-accident repairs?

It’s unlikely. Insurance usually covers repairs from accidents, theft, or vandalism. Regular maintenance and wear-and-tear are generally not included.

How much will it cost to repair my car’s body damage?

It depends on the damage. Small dents and scratches might cost a few hundred pounds. Big repairs, like replacing panels or repainting, can run into thousands.

Can I choose where my car is repaired after an accident?

You can usually choose any shop you like. Just keep in mind that if it’s not on your insurance’s list, you might have to cover any extra costs.

Can I drive my car after an accident before it gets repaired?

It depends on the damage to your car. If the car is safe, you can drive it until repairs are done. But if the damage is serious and risks your safety, don’t drive!

What should I do immediately after an accident?

First, make sure everyone is safe. Call emergency services if needed. Swap insurance details with the other driver. Take photos of the scene. After that, let your insurance company know to start your claim.

Will there be a warranty on my accident repairs?

Most repair shops offer a warranty on their work. This usually covers parts and labour for a certain time. Be sure to ask about the warranty details before you start.

Will my accident repairs affect my car's resale value?

Good repairs shouldn’t hurt your resale value too much. But if your car’s been in a few accidents or the repairs were shoddy, it might drop in value. Always choose a repair shop you can trust to keep your car’s value up.

What if I’m not satisfied with the repair work?

If this happens, let the garage know. Most places will fix any problems and make sure you’re happy. If this doesn’t work, have a chat with your insurance company.

How long will my accident repairs take?

This depends on the damage to your car. Small repairs might be done in a few days. Large fixes could take weeks. For a clear idea, ask your garage for an estimate.
