What is SMART repair?
SMART repair (Small to Medium Area Repair Technique) is a specialist process used for fixing minor body damage without the need for full panel replacement or resprays. It’s ideal for:
- Paint scratches
- Car park dents
- Bumper corner scuffs
- Door edge chips
- Trim and plastic repairs
Because SMART repairs only target the affected area, the results are quicker and more affordable than full resprays. For more details, visit our SMART Repair Bristol page.
How do insurance repairs work at SAR Group?
Our insurance repair process is designed to be simple and stress-free:
- Initial Contact – Send us your insurer’s details, claim number, and photos of the damage.
- Assessment & Estimate – We’ll create a quote and submit it to your insurer.
- Approval & Scheduling – Once approved, we’ll book your vehicle in and confirm availability for a courtesy car if requested.
- Repair & Communication – Our team completes the work to manufacturer standards, keeping you updated at every stage.
- Handover – We notify you when your vehicle is ready and confirm all repairs with documentation.
