Alloy wheel refurbishment in Galleywood

Galleywood is just over twenty minutes away via the A130. It is a quieter postcode and the work reflects it — less kerb rash, more of the slow decay that catches everyone eventually: lacquer lifting at the rim, corrosion creeping in behind it, and a set of wheels that has gone dull and grey without anyone quite noticing when. Stripped and powder coated properly, those wheels come back better than they left the factory.

We are not a mobile service — Galleywood customers come to us. Everything is done at our Wickford unit (Unit 40, Andersons Industrial Estate, SS12 9EJ). We do not offer collection or mobile visits, so you make your own way here — about 23 minutes and 12 miles from Galleywood. Drop the car in, or bring the wheels loose.

The run from Galleywood

Down to the A130 at Baddow, then south to Wickford. Around twenty-three minutes.

There is no travel charge and no premium for coming from outside Wickford — the price is the price. If 12 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 Galleywood customers do exactly that.

The lanes across Galleywood Common are narrow with soft, broken edges. Meeting something coming the other way usually means a wheel on the verge, and the drop there is real.

What we do for Galleywood 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.
