Car Body Repairs in Canterbury
Looking for trusted car body repairs in Canterbury? Max Auto Colour is a Canterbury-based specialist offering accident repairs, SMART repairs, paintwork and insurance claim support, all handled at our own workshop rather than sent off to a distant chain garage.
Supporting drivers in Canterbury
Whether it’s a scrape picking up shopping on Wincheap, a knock in one of the multi-storey car parks, or a more serious accident out on the ring road or Sturry Road, our team can restore your vehicle to a high standard without the wait times that come with a national chain.
We’re based at Unit 7 CMA Industrial Park, Howfield Lane, just off the A28, so drop-off and collection are straightforward wherever you are in the city, from the cathedral quarter to the university campuses. Send a few photos of the damage and we’ll come back with a clear, no-obligation estimate, usually the same working day.
