Recommendations please!

[QueenD]

Having been badly clonked by a passing Fiat van yesterday we are now making an insurance claim. We've been advised that we can go to someone we know or who has been recommended to us but as we've only owned our MH for 30 days! We know NOTHING...so MH Fun Friends, we are in North West Leicestershire, who would anyone recommend to make our repairs (quarterlight, scratched driver's door, broken wing mirror, scratched side windows, marks down the MH side)???

Many thanks
Alexa.

Can't answer but what a shame and I hope it's sorted soon.

Thanks, it's a bummer!

Sorry to hear of you accident. Can't help but if you post the MH model it may help folk to advise as MHs are made in different ways.

Sounds as if it's something any body shop could do probably better than a motorhome place.

Agree chaser, maybe ask your local garage who they use for bodywork repairs.

The op did say marks down m/h side so there may be m/h spcific repairs as well as general bodywork. I would try Cannock Resprays I think its their sort of thing. Not used them for bodywork but had our hab check there last year don't expect gleaming shiny impressive looking premises!

Yes my first thought but reading it again it maybe looks worse than it is.

Thanks guys. If I go to a regular bodyshop what do I do about the damaged plastic side windows? Won’t that need to be a caravan/Motorhome specialist?

Which is probably why most repairers won't touch it. The windows should be obtainable but they won't want your MH taking up a lot of space while they wait for them to arrive and they won't have much if any experience of MHs and their construction.

You can ask local companies but be prepared for a negative reaction.

The scratches to the side windows can be polished out. I had mine sorted and the scratches were quite deep. Hope you get it sorted.
