End of Lease Repairs.

SMART CAR UK - Professional repairs for lease car returns, we have you covered

Leasing a vehicle is an excellent way to drive a modern, reliable car without the long-term commitment of ownership. However, when it’s time to return your lease vehicle, you need to be mindful of any cosmetic damage that may result in unexpected penalty charges. At Smart Car UK, we specialise in end of lease car repairs, ensuring your vehicle is returned in pristine condition, helping you avoid excessive fees and disputes with leasing companies.

Common End of Lease Repairs We Offer

Paintwork & Scratch Repairs

Minor scratches and scuffs are one of the most frequent reasons for lease return penalties. Our professional paintwork repairs seamlessly blend with your vehicle’s original finish, making damage completely undetectable.

Dent Removal

Small dents and dings caused by parking incidents or minor bumps can easily exceed lease return standards. Our paintless dent removal (PDR) service restores the bodywork without costly resprays.

Alloy Wheel Refurbishment

Curbed or scratched alloy wheels can be a costly charge when returning a leased vehicle. Our alloy wheel refurbishment service ensures your wheels look pristine, helping you avoid unnecessary fees.

Bumper Scuff & Chip Repairs

Bumpers endure constant wear and tear, often leading to scuffs, chips, and minor cracks. Our bumper repair service restores your vehicle’s exterior to its pre-lease return standard.

Interior & Trim Repairs

Lease companies often charge for interior damage, such as torn upholstery, damaged dashboards, or scuffed trims. We provide expert interior refurbishment to keep your vehicle in top condition.

What does ‘Normal Wear and Tear’ really mean?

The term ‘wear and tear’ is widely used in leasing contracts, but its definition can be vague. While minor signs of use, such as tyre wear or interior marks, may be acceptable, many lease providers enforce strict damage criteria. This often results in unexpected charges for seemingly minor cosmetic issues.
To avoid disputes, it’s always best to have your car professionally assessed and repaired before returning it.

When to book your lease repair

If you still have some time remaining on your lease, you may want to wait until closer to the end of your lease period before booking repairs. This ensures that any damage sustained during the final months of usage can also be addressed before returning the vehicle. We can reserve a slot for you in our spray booth and provide a timely reminder closer to your lease hand-in date.

Alternatively, if your vehicle has noticeable damage that affects its appearance or performance, you may prefer to book a repair sooner to maintain your car’s presentation and prevent further deterioration.
