The Cost of Mobile Diamond Cut Wheel Repair

Mobile diamond cut wheel repair is a new and revolutionary service we’re rolling out across the UK. The convenience of mobile repairs, combined with the quality of a diamond cut repair job, means that your wheels will be looking as good as new in a short time period.

However, the main concern that people have with this service is that they are worried about the price; a convenient service isn’t so convenient after all if it breaks the bank. In this blog post, we are going to ease these concerns and answer all your questions around mobile diamond cut alloy repair. 


What are diamond cut wheels?


Diamond cut wheels are alloys which have been repaired in a specialised machine to create a shiny finish. They boast a unique appearance which cannot be achieved through any other repair or refurbishment method, which is why sometimes the process costs a little bit more, but we always aim to deliver an affordable and convenient service no matter what.

Diamond cut wheels are often regarded as the highest quality of wheels, especially when it comes to the visual finish. It’s often seen as superior to other repair or refinishing methods as a result, and most high end vehicles will be finished off with diamond cut alloys.



What is diamond cut wheel repair?


Diamond cut wheel repair refers to the alloy wheel repair process which involves the recutting and refinishing of your alloy(s) to achieve a finish similar to the surface of a CD or DVD. Typically, diamond cut wheel repair needs to be done in a repair shop or garage due to the highly expensive and specialised equipment and machines required to complete this job.

However, with Alloy Wheel Repair Services, this is no longer the case.

Our mobile alloy wheel repair vans are fitted with the specific lathes needed for expert-level diamond wheel repair, meaning you can expect the quality of long-winded workshop repairs, with the added convenience of mobile repairs.

Our mobile diamond cut wheels process involves deflating the tyre and moving it back from the edge of the wheel. This differs from the usual process, as normally the tyre has to be removed from the wheel entirely making it take a lot longer to complete. The wheel is then placed in our groundbreaking Micro Lenco lathe, and then cut over the edge of the wheel, the sign of a high quality diamond repair.

Common types of alloy wheel damage


Before we can determine how much your alloy wheels will cost to repair, it’s important to consider the type, and severity, of damage. Diamond cut wheels might become damaged in a number of ways, here are some of the more common types of damage:

  • Kerb rashProbably the most common damage type, kerb rash occurs when the rim of your wheel makes contact with, and often scrapes against a kerb, normally whilst parking. This problem can also be caused, or worsened, by potholes and general road debris.
  • Cracked alloysCaused typically by driving quickly over a pothole or a speed bump, cracked alloys present a danger to the structural integrity of your alloys. For safety, it is important to get cracked alloys repaired as soon as possible.
  • Buckled alloysAnywhere from a slight bend to an entirely crumpled alloy can be referred to as a buckled alloy. Usually, this is the result of impact with another vehicle, a kerb, or a pothole at high speeds.
  • General road damage - Especially on faster roads or more uneven surfaces, small rocks and stones, nails, and other bits of debris can hit the sides of your wheels. This scratches the wheel surface.
  • Corrosion - Brake dust which accumulates and becomes compacted on the wheels, as well as other harsh chemicals and substances associated with driving, can weaken the outer layers of your alloys or alloy coating, making them more susceptible to all types of damage. This is why it’s important to regularly clean your alloy wheels.
