Top job, top guy. I couldn't have wished for a better result. Colin got my dented door back to just how it left the factory, and it was such a reasonable price for the skill and workmanship involved.... See more

The monocle from Woodpecker UK
Ordered the monocle from Woodpecker 🇬🇧.
It’s unbelievable what you can see in details of the dent. First accurate pushes are so important.
Delivery was fast and Colin kept me updated all the time. I can only say it’s the next thing you need as a PDR technician to get your hands on.
Very well designed product.
Again, thanks a lot Colin Wood.

Amazing job.
At short notice Colin was very accommodating and did a fantastic job of sorting my arch, leaving it like it had just rolled out of the factory again.
Would highly recommend. Thanks Colin!

Thank you for taking the time to post a review John, good to hear you are pleased with the work we did on your daughters car. Roof panels can be tricky to repair, especially with tight stretched metal, but I was really happy with the finish we achieved on your daughters new car. Hope she was equally pleased when she found out you'd bought it for her!
Kind regards, Colin Wood.

Thanks for your kind words Graham, it's always good to hear when we are appreciated! :-)
As with anything we do, I want to make sure that everything we sell is right for the buyer and that they get the best out of it so you are very welcome. I find 'word of mouth' and reviews/recommendations are by far the best form of advertising, so thank you for taking the time to write. Have a great weekend! :-)
Great Job!
I took my Hyundai i800 people carrier to Colin a few weeks ago, I knew about Colin's work from working in bodyshops since the early 2000's
Embarrassingly, I dented the tailgate with huge hand size dents after trying to push the Hyundai out of a field.
Luckily Colin managed to work his magic and the dent has now been removed.
I can’t recommend him enough. Great job and great value for money, much appreciated.

Took my car to Woodpecker UK Ltd after my car had been dinted on the top of the rear passenger door panel.
Colin was very helpful with his advice with what was required to repair the door , how long the work would take and then carried out the work very professionally.
Excellent service and workmanship very pleased with the finished job.

Many thanks for making the trip over to see us Gary and for taking the time to write this. Great to know you are happy enough with our service to tell others about it and while I hope you don't have to see us again too soon, you now know where we are when you need us.
Many thanks.
Difficult dent removed perfectly
Had a small but annoying dent just below the wing mirror of our Mini Countryman, which a more local dent removal company had tried to remove before advising us to have it filled by a bodyshop, as they couldn't do it. Woodpecker was recommended to us so I decided to give Colin a go instead and I'm glad I did, despite being a good hour's drive away. He had a look at some photos I sent, took some advice and came back with the assessment of "hard but not impossible" and offered to take the job on saying "if I can't fix it there'll be no charge". It took him about 3 hours to tease the dent out and by the time he'd finished there was no trace of it left. I wouldn't contemplate using anyone else in the future now and there's even a pub about 5 minutes walk from his premises where you can go whilst you wait. Couldn't recommend more strongly.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience Marcus, it is much appreciated and a great help for new customers to mare the right choices. We may not be the cheapest around, but we do aim to be the most cost effective and the best option for the integrity of the car. While I hope you don't have to see us again soon, even a visit to the Haven Inn is well worth the trip over! ;-)
