Professional Alloy Wheel Refurbishment & Welding Services
If your alloy wheels have seen better days, do not fear, we can help! We have a tried-and-tested method for welding alloy wheels that ensures safety and integrity remains.
To fix an alloy wheel safely, we drill the end of the crack, which eliminates any further cracking. From there, the damage is ground out and welded from both sides – this melts in the middle to create a reinforced fillet weld.
The weld is then ground flush on the inside of the alloy to ensure that an airtight seal is formed. This process also ensures that damage to the tyre bead is avoided, extending the lifetime of your tyres that would otherwise be worn down by damaged alloys.
Cracked or Buckled Alloys? We Can Help.
If you have noticed any damage to your alloy wheels, from a minor scuff or scratch to something larger like a crack, then do not hesitate to get in touch. Our experienced technicians can diagnose alloy wheel issues and provide the fixes to give you the peace of mind that your car is safe and roadworthy once again.

Can alloy wheels be repaired or do they need replacing?
In many cases, alloy wheels can be repaired rather than replaced, especially for cosmetic damage such as scuffs, scratches or minor dents. Repairs are usually more cost-effective and can restore the original appearance of the wheel.
How long does alloy wheel repair take?
Repair times depend on the extent of the damage, but many jobs can be completed within a few hours. For more extensive refurbishment, it may take longer. We’ll always advise on expected turnaround times before starting work.
Is it safe to drive with a damaged alloy wheel?
Minor cosmetic damage is usually safe, but structural damage such as cracks or severe bends can be dangerous. If you’re unsure, it’s best to have the wheel inspected to ensure it’s safe to continue driving.
Will the repaired wheel match the original finish?
Yes, we aim to match the original colour and finish as closely as possible. Professional repair techniques allow us to restore the look of the wheel so it blends seamlessly with the others.
Is repairing alloy wheels worth it?
For most types of damage, repairing is significantly more affordable than replacing the wheel entirely. It also helps maintain the appearance and value of your vehicle without unnecessary expense.
