Asking the locals - checked back as far back as mid 2020 and no threads.

Anyone able to recommend a good bodyshop / mobile smart repairer in North Sheffield / Barnsley area?

somebody has reversed into my car and done the honest thing of coming so not looking to be vindictive but want a good quality job rather than an anonymous chips away type franchise.

This might be a bit too far but P M Auto Body Repairs near Horbury were excellent when my wifes TT got a dent on the door from the neighbours car. They were the cheapest of all the quotes, but also the most professional when it came to discussing the work required. Excellent quality. We couldn't use any of the Chips Away type folk so needed a proper body shop. Also on same estate as Optimum Motorsport but didn't see any 488 GTE or 720S shakedowns.

Thanks

PM Autobody were already on the list as did come up as they'd done some work on the wifes MG to sort a dealer fudge up.

Had a few recommendations for a place called Blue Line who were in Mapplewell but have moved to Durkar. Price was right, work on site looked good, James the owner was lovely so its going to them. Car in for the day with proper spray booth facilities rather than a smart repair in a dusty carpark.

Just to wrap this up, Blue chip did the job and did it well. The painter who currently has my van (has swamped and had no capacity to do the work) inspected it when i went to check on the van and admitted they'd done a good job and crucially had done a proper repair painting/clearing the panel rather than just a smart repair.
