Repair first, replace only when needed

Bumpers take more knocks than any other part of a car: parking posts, kerbs, low walls and other cars’ bumpers. Because modern bumpers are made of flexible plastic, a lot of that damage can be repaired properly, from a scuffed corner to a split along the edge.

Our car bumper repair work is honest about the options. If your bumper can be repaired and refinished to look and fit like new, we’ll repair it, which is usually the cheaper choice. If the plastic is badly broken or the mountings behind it are damaged, we’ll show you why a replacement is better, and paint the new bumper to match.

FAQs

Bumper repair questions

Straight answers about bumper repair costs, cracks, scuffs and replacement.

It depends on the damage, whether it is the front or rear bumper and your paint colour. A scuffed corner costs much less than a cracked bumper that needs repairing and repainting. Send photos through our quote form and we will give you a written bumper repair quote after a free inspection.

Often, yes. Small cracks and splits in a plastic bumper can be repaired from behind, filled and repainted. If the crack is long, there are several, or pieces are missing, a replacement bumper is usually the better option.

Repairing a bumper is usually cheaper than replacing it, because you avoid the cost of a new part. Replacement makes sense when the bumper is too badly broken to repair properly.

A bumper scuff repair is one of the less expensive body repairs, because it usually involves one area of one bumper. The price depends on how deep the scuff is and your paint finish. Send a photo for an exact quote.

Scuff and scratch repairs are quicker than cracked bumper repairs, which need the bumper removed, repaired, painted and refitted. We give you a time estimate with your quote.

We paint the bumper using your car’s manufacturer paint code and blend the colour, so it matches the panels next to it.

We remove and refit parking sensors carefully during the repair and check that they work afterwards. If your car has driver-assist sensors or cameras in the bumper, we’ll tell you if they need checking or calibrating.

For a scuff or small crack, the repair cost may be close to your excess, and a claim can affect your no-claims bonus. Ask us for a private quote first so you can compare. If another driver hit you, we can explain how a non-fault claim works.
