Default Dent Repair

Can anyone recommend somewhere preferably local to me (Postcode GU14 9YA) that can repair dents at a reasonable cost?

I've got 2 golf ball sized dents and a chip of paintwork missing on my front passenger wheel arch area. I went to see a local chap who's done some work for me before for some cash prices, but he's now retired and the new chap quoted me £175 as a cash price.

Any suggestions please?

I'd be a bit wary of people who quote you cash prices. You won't get a receipt, so won't have any comeback if there are any issues with the work.

The implication of a cash price is that they are not going to declare it for tax (either personal or corporate) or VAT purposes. Properly dodgy behaviour!

Steve at Dentz based in Worthing.
He has a couple of guy's that extend his range. But not sure how far.
He is not a franchise so his guy's are skilled rather the classroom taught then bought.

That's a bit too far. I'll pop into some other local workshops and get some prices. Need to upgrade my fuel pump and get a new boot seal fitted first anyway.
