Wheel Damage - Any Local Recommendations?

[Peter_Bull]

No idea how it happened, certainly not kerbed, but I have a some slight damage on the edge of a rear rim.
Can anyone recommend a mobile repairer in the Lancashire area?

Peter,
I have used "Wheel Repair Centre" at Bamber Bridge to repair some kerb damage to a rear wheel on my 996. I have no experience of other wheel repairers, but they seem to do a good job at a reasonable price.

Thanks David

I managed to get a reasonable job done via one of those people who do services for main dealers (not OPC). It was only £40 and it passes a cursory inspection and for now it will do. They repaired it and painted the outer edge rim - about half an inch all the way round. Can't say I would recommend them to anyone, hence no details here.

Trouble was though, when I got it back to my garage, I stood it up whilst I jacked up the car ready to refit it - but - unnoticed by me - it rolled away and fell over onto the painted side!
Ding, ding and b***dy ding!!!! Rim damaged in two places and marks from the concrete all round the 5 stud holes!!
As you can imagine I felt a bl**dy idiot and the air was blue!!!
It's back on as is!
