FAQs

How long does a car respray take?
Small panels can be turned around in 1-2 days. A full respray typically takes 5-10 working days depending on prep and parts removal.
Will you match my exact colour?
Yes. We use OEM codes and spectro matching, then blend into adjacent panels when required for an invisible join.
Is a wrap cheaper than a respray?
Wraps can be quicker and reversible but don't repair defects and can lift at edges. Respray repairs the surface and delivers a permanent, factory-like finish.
Accident repairs & insurance work
Dealing with accident damage and insurance paperwork? Let DVB Automotive take the stress out of the process. You're not required to use your insurer's chosen repairer - you can pick a garage you trust. Choose us, and we'll handle the rest.
We work directly with insurance providers while staying focused on what matters to you: a fair, detailed assessment, high-quality repairs, and clear communication throughout the process. Our experienced team uses trusted external assessors and estimators to ensure all necessary work is accounted for and approved.
Worried about your excess rising if you go elsewhere? Don't be - we'll cover the difference if your insurer suggests a different repairer.
Dent & scratch repairs
Our paintless dent removal (PDR) and smart repair techniques restore your vehicle's bodywork without unnecessary respraying.
What is PDR?
PDR is a precise technique that removes minor dents without filling, sanding, or repainting. Using specialist tools, we gently reshape the panel from behind, making it a quick, cost-effective, and eco-friendly solution for door dings, hail damage, and minor creases.
Full & partial resprays
Our expert resprays use advanced paint-matching technology to ensure the perfect finish.
- Full resprays: A complete repaint of your vehicle, ideal for restoring faded, sun-damaged, or heavily scratched paintwork, repairing accident damage across multiple panels, or changing the car's colour.
- Partial resprays: A targeted repainting of specific panels, such as bumpers, doors, or bonnets, to repair scratches, scuffs, or minor accident damage.
If you're unsure whether you need a full or partial respray, our experts will assess your vehicle and recommend
