I have used Patrick and his team to carry out paint repairs , i can not fault the quality of their work , he may be even fussier than me with with his finished result. Yes he is always busy , a sign of a respected and trusted repairer, i would rather wait in the queue than go elsewhere and get poor quality repairs. Keep up the good work, Pat and team.

I had a small amount of damage on front bumper of my matte finished pride and joy. The amount of research, technology and time taken by Patrick, to get this perfect, in both colour and finish was really, really impressive. If you have a vehicle which means a lot to you and only perfection will do, phone the team at Precision Paint and relax in the knowledge that you are dealing with the best. Thanks Patrick, Paul

Very happy with the work Patrick did on my car (fixing a large dent in the door. Now looks as good as new). He took care of everything, including all the communication with the insurance company, so it couldn't have been easier. He is also very professional, hard working and respectful of deadlines. Highly recommend!

Patrick at precision is excellent, by far the best paint shop in the area. I had some damage that a smart repair did a shocking repair on. Then took to MR TLC just up from Patrick and whilst better the paint finish was still poor (dust under paint, orange peel etc). Took to Patrick and his work is first class. His attention to detail is brilliant and for bumpers takes panel off etc and only 50 more than the smart repair up the road that dont take the panel off or have a proper sealed booth. No comparison between the 2 in terms of finish of paint afterwards - top class work at a reasonable price
