Alloy wheel refurbishment in Seven Kings

The run from Seven Kings

A12 east to Gallows Corner, A127 to the Fortune of War, A132 north. About thirty-three minutes.

There is no travel charge and no premium for coming from outside Wickford — the price is the price. If 21 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 Seven Kings customers do exactly that.

What we do for Seven Kings 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.
