Alloy wheel refurbishment in Chadwell Heath
Chadwell Heath is about half an hour on the A12 and A127. It is a busy RM6 postcode with a lot of everyday cars on tired factory wheels, and that is our most common job from here: a full set stripped, repaired and powder coated. A set of dull, peeling silver alloys going back on in satin black changes a car completely — and costs nothing extra over a standard refinish.

The run from Chadwell Heath
A12 east to Gallows Corner, A127 to the Fortune of War, A132 north. Just over half an hour.
There is no travel charge and no premium for coming from outside Wickford — the price is the price. If 19 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 Chadwell Heath customers do exactly that.
What we do for Chadwell Heath 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.
