Waxoil/chassis treatment specialist in Surrey/SE?
Discussion
Could anyone recommend somewhere in Surrey or neighbouring counties that’s good at this?.
My Landcruiser has a bit of surface rust in places but has a very solid and rot free chassis and I’d like to keep it that way!, unfortunately don’t have access to a ramp to do it myself and would rather get somewhere that does it as a regular thing to do it for peace of mind.
Any recommendations appreciated.

I personally dont like/rate wayoyl - its messy and can crack allowing moisture to be captured in - rotting what under it without you knowing.
I know you say you dont wish to do yourself but Ive just done my Land Rover and my friend just done his Land cruiser with Lanoguard. All it needs is a couple of drive on ramps or axle stands - a good pressure wash - perhaps some wire brushing if you have some scalely bits then apply the Lanoguard which is so easy and very satisfying. Ideally its an annual job but Ive been very impressed with it. video link below.

L/Cruiser rust free chassis is rare, to find someone capable of prepping and treating that is worth travelling for.
On the LC forums Krown at Wolverhampton is getting some good write ups, fairly priced too.
JR Classic at Doncaster another, apparently favoured by classic owners, currently a 3 month waiting list from what i hear.
Obviously if you could fit either of these in with a visit in the area with an overnight stay would be best, make it a couple of days and have a stainless exhaust made and fitted at MIJ Walsall whilst at Wolves if yours is getting a bit thin.
I too wouldn't bother with Waxoyl or similar, fair enough to protect an as new still painted chassis and underbody, but not when surface rust is showing.
I do my own rustproofing but it is indeed a filthy job and what i use requires an annual recoat (15 mins), have 4 ramps which i drive the vehicle up onto, but no point in going into details because its not what you want to do and can't say i blame you.

These guys in north Herts did a cost effective job on my Suzuki hatchback https://www.cskautomotive.co.uk/the-rust-preventio...
