Alloy Wheel Repair Vs. Replacement Costs


Alloy Wheel Repair Vs. Replacement Costs

Patricia Lanford
11 August 2012


Alloy wheels are a popular accessory on many cars today. They look fantastic-- as long as they aren't dinged and scraped up. Alloy wheels, though, can be very expensive to replace, especially when you add in the costs for having them installed on your car. You can save a lot of money if you get those alloy wheels repaired instead.

The procedure for repairing alloy wheels takes a little over an hour if you call a mobile service. These specialists will come to you at your work, home, or other location to do the repair. They will access to power to operate some of their tools. The specialists will first grind the dent or ding out of the wheel. Then, they will apply an epoxy to the area in order to level it out. Once that is dry, paint primer is sprayed on. The final step is repainting the alloy wheel. While this may sound simple, it actually takes a lot of experience to do the repair correctly so there is no sign of it.

Mobile alloy wheel repair is priced more competitively than you might think. It's a lot cheaper than simply replacing your wheels. In fact, you could save as much as fifty percent over the cost of one alloy wheel. When you call a mobile alloy wheel repair service, you should receive a free quote for their services, as well as information about their guarantee. You certainly don't want to pay for a repair twice because it wasn't done correctly the first time.

In addition to alloy wheel repair, most of the mobile auto repair services also offer other repairs, too. These might include dent repair, bumper repair, leather seat repair, and car minor paint repair. Many of these service providers will offer a discount when you combine services. This can save you a lot if you have a dent that needs to be fixed, too. It won't take long before your car looks great once more.

If the interior of your car needs some attention, you're in luck there, too. Rips, tears, and cigarette burns can make your car's interior look ragged. Most mobile dent repair companies can also tackle your interior repairs, as well. Cloth, leather, or vinyl seats can quickly be repaired to look new again. The same goes for headliners and dashes, too.
