Alloy wheel refurbishment in Burnham-on-Crouch
Burnham is at the eastern edge of our patch, about half an hour through South Woodham. Being a sailing town right on the water, corrosion is the dominant problem — the salt gets everywhere and it does not stop. If your wheels have gone cloudy, bubbled at the rim or grown white powdery worming under the clear coat, that is what is happening, and it needs stripping back to bare aluminium. Cosmetic fixes on a corroded Burnham wheel are money wasted.

The run from Burnham-on-Crouch
B1010 and B1012 through South Woodham Ferrers and Battlesbridge into Wickford. About half an hour on the back roads.
There is no travel charge and no premium for coming from outside Wickford — the price is the price. If 18 miles is an awkward round trip to do twice, bring the wheels loose instead: four in the back of an estate or a van works perfectly well, and plenty of our Burnham-on-Crouch customers do exactly that.
What we do for Burnham-on-Crouch cars
Everything happens at Unit 40 — nothing is sent away and nothing is subcontracted. That matters most for the two jobs a mobile repairer genuinely cannot do: diamond cutting, which needs a CNC lathe, and crack welding, which needs a TIG set and a pressure test.
- Full refurbishment — chemically stripped to bare metal, repaired, powder coated and oven-cured. From £75 a wheel.
- Diamond cutting — on our own lathe, with a corrosion-inhibiting lacquer. The fix for wheels that have gone cloudy or milky.
- Crack repair — veed out, TIG welded, machined back and pressure-tested. A cracked wheel is an MOT failure.
- Buckle straightening — runout measured, not guessed. This is what that vibration at 60 usually is.
- Caliper painting — calipers off the car, stripped and coated properly. The obvious moment to do it is while the wheels are already off.
- Locking nut removal — no key needed. From £20 per wheel.
We also run the tuning side out of the same unit — Stage 1 remapping written for your exact engine, plus proper DPF and AdBlue diagnosis. Check what your car should make.
