Alloy wheel refurbishment in Harold Hill
Harold Hill is twenty-five minutes out and a steady source of work. Like most post-war estates it is built around parking courts and cushions, and the alloys pay the price. We do a lot of straightforward full-set refurbs from RM3 — usually silver going to gloss black or anthracite, which costs no more than putting them back to standard and completely changes how the car looks.

The run from Harold Hill
A12 to Gallows Corner then east on the A127, A132 north into Wickford. Twenty-five minutes.
There is no travel charge and no premium for coming from outside Wickford — the price is the price. If 14 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 Harold Hill customers do exactly that.
What we do for Harold Hill 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.
