A lorry parked up with a dented cab or a scraped side panel isn’t just untidy, it’s a vehicle that should be out earning. Most body shops haven’t got the floor space to take one on, so it ends up sitting around. We have the room, and we treat the big stuff with the same care as a car. Bring it to our workshop in Fairford, just outside Cirencester, and we’ll sort it.
What we take on
Our bay is set up for size, so we can work all the way round a cab or trailer without it being a juggling act. The kind of jobs that come through include:
- Dented, creased and split cab and body panels
- Scraped or holed side panels and curtain frames
- Doors, wings, bumpers, grilles and steps
- Corrosion cut out and patched before it spreads
- Full or partial resprays, colour matched to your fleet
Whether it’s a single tractor unit or one of several vehicles from a yard, we’ll give you a realistic plan so the rota doesn’t fall apart while it’s with us.
Back on the road, not stuck in the yard
Downtime on a large goods vehicle costs real money, so we order parts before the vehicle comes in and keep things moving once it’s on the floor. The work is the same standard you’d expect on any accident and collision repair we do, just on a bigger canvas. Paint is matched and blended so a repaired panel doesn’t shout, and we look the whole thing over before it leaves.
If you run a mix of vehicles, it’s worth knowing we also handle fleet and commercial repairs and the odd horsebox too, so one workshop can keep the whole lot tidy.
Paint and finish that lasts
A truck lives outside in all weathers, so the finish has to stand up to it. We prep properly, use durable coatings and take our time on the bigger flat areas where a rushed job would show. For larger resprays and refinishing, we’ll talk you through what suits the vehicle and how long it’ll need to cure.
Where we work from
We’re based in Fairford and look after operators across the wider area, from Cirencester and Cricklade through to Swindon and Royal Wootton Bassett. It’s your vehicle, so if it’s an insurance job remember you can choose your own repairer and bring it to us.
Give us a ring on 01285 238 153 with the make and a rough idea of the damage, or send a few photos, and we’ll quote you with no obligation. Collection and return can be arranged where it helps.
