Market-town parking, canal-side roads and minor accidents
Stone is a pleasant market town, though a busy one, and its car parks and narrower streets see a constant mix of shoppers, visitors and local drivers. That brings low-speed contact: a reversing bump, a dented rear quarter, a scraped front corner. Often the damage looks minor, but the thing worth establishing early is exactly what has been affected beyond the paint.
DB Autos is a full garage as well as a bodywork repairer, so when Stone drivers bring a car in after a knock we can examine both. We assess the visible panel and paint damage, consider whether steering, suspension or lighting might be affected, and explain the whole picture before suggesting a repair. Nothing is done without your permission.
A low-speed bump is easy to dismiss, yet a few things are worth checking afterwards: whether the bumper is still firmly mounted, whether a headlight or tail lamp has been cracked or shifted, and whether any panel gap has altered. The right repair might be paintless dent work, reshaping and refinishing, or a bumper repair rather than replacement. Our approach is to establish what is damaged, recommend the sensible fix and leave the decision with you. The Salem Street garage is 8 miles from Stone, so it is a straightforward drive south.
Every vehicle is inspected individually, then the repair is explained before work begins.

Both. As a mechanical garage we can check steering, suspension and lighting after an impact, alongside assessing and repairing the visible bodywork. It is a one-garage approach, so findings from each side are considered together for your car.
Often, yes, though rear quarters can be awkward. Depending on access and paint condition, paintless or conventional reshaping and refinishing may apply. We inspect before advising. Their position can make access harder, so we check carefully before deciding on the method.
