Kia Cosmetic Repairs

Small marks, dents or scratches detract from your Kia’s stunning form. We can repair these minor blemishes to restore your car to its original glory.

These cosmetic repairs may not be vital but they make a world of difference, especially when it comes to selling.

Often, Kia cosmetic repairs can be carried out without having to replace or paint larger body panels, making minor cosmetic work affordable and convenient.

Kia Minor Repairs

Accidents happen, so don’t worry. Our Kia technicians have you covered. Minor repairs, like dents or scratches, can be easily remedied at our Group 1 Kia bodyshops.

• Dents: We can fix any dents to the bodywork. Some smaller dents may be fixable without the need for respraying too
• Scratches: Even the smallest scratch affects the way your Kia looks. We completely remove scratches in no time.
• Glass Repair: It’s important to repair any damage to your windscreen ASAP. Our Kia bodyshops handle everything from small scratches to full cracks.

Kia Major Repairs

We’re here to help in the event of a major accident. It’s vital that your Kia is repaired to the highest standard to ensure your safety.

Our technicians restore the damaged parts of your Kia so they look and run like new.

When you get your Kia back, you won’t be able to tell there was ever a problem. All damage is professionally fixed, leaving no marks whatsoever.

We can sort out any issues, from massive dents and scratches to complete panel swaps.

Kia Accident Recovery

When choosing Group 1 Kia for bodyshop and repairs, we offer full accident recovery. This means you don’t have to worry in the event of an accident, as we’ll arrange for the car to be collected and delivered to us.

Once we’ve got your Kia car, our specialist technicians comprehensively check it over to find the full extent of the damage. Then, with your approval, we’ll get to work restoring your vehicle. We offer courtesy cars* so you can get around whilst your car is being repaired.

*Where available - subject to booking.

What is SMART Repair?

SMART stands for Small to Medium Area Repair Technology. It’s a specially designed process that allows us to repair a small area of your car without having to remove or repaint panels.

This advanced technology means your car only spends a few hours in the shop rather than a few days.

SMART repairs aren’t just quicker. They’re more affordable, too! This makes them more likely to be covered in your car insurance’s excess, allowing you to keep your no-claims bonus.

Kia Alloy Wheel Repair

Recently curbed your wheels? Or did you notice a scuff, blemish or other markings? Come to Group 1 Kia for expert Kia alloy wheel repair.

Our Kia technicians get your alloys looking like they’re fresh out of the showroom.

Most of our Kia alloy refurbishment work is completed within 24 hours, if not sooner.

And we can add a touch of style with your choice of colours, too.

Insurance Repair

When going through your insurance, your provider may insist on using one of their suggested bodyshops. You should insist on getting any Kia repairs carried out at a Kia approved bodyshop, like Group 1 Kia.

This guarantees that your car is repaired with genuine OEM parts and restored to its rigorous Euro NCAP safety standards.

We’ll support you however we can, offering advice to you and your insurer along every step of the process.

We have a team of fully specialised Kia technicians who carry out all bodyshop & repair work. You can rest assured knowing your beloved car is in safe hands, as we know your vehicle inside out.
