Alloy wheel refurbishment in Meopham
Meopham is roughly fifty minutes from us via the crossing. It is a long village on a fast, narrow road, and the damage we see reflects that: verge drops, buckles and the occasional cracked rim rather than car-park rash. All of it is repairable in-house. If the wheel is holding pressure but the car vibrates at speed, that is a buckle and it is almost always straightenable.

The run from Meopham
A227 to the A2 and the crossing, then A13 east and A132 north. Around fifty minutes.
There is no travel charge and no premium for coming from outside Wickford — the price is the price. If 31 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 Meopham customers do exactly that.
What we do for Meopham 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.
