Base Cosmetics
Base Cosmetics is a mobile car repair service specializing in car body repair in Sunderland and serving the North East area of England. Instead of sending your vehicle away for days on end, the company brings its workshop to you, whether you are at home, at the office, or at a dealership. Their technicians are experts in repairing paintwork scratches, bumper scuffs, stone chips, alloy wheel damage, and machine polishing. Because they come to you and focus on local jobs, you don’t lose your car to a body shop for several days, and they can offer prices that are around 50% cheaper than traditional body shops.
Experience and reputation
With over 25 years’ experience in car body repairs, Base Cosmetics has built a strong reputation among motorists and motor dealers across the North East. Clients praise the service as “first-class,” highlighting the company’s quick response, friendly approach, and the way their cars look “like new” after repairs. Long-time customers return with multiple vehicles because they trust both the workmanship and the value for money. Working closely with local dealerships also means the technicians understand the standards expected for prestige marques and leased vehicles.
Mobile convenience
Base Cosmetics is essentially a mobile car repairs provider, equipped to perform paint and bodywork repairs at customers’ homes, workplaces, or dealerships. They carry protective covers and equipment so that most repairs, including bumper scuffs, can be completed in a driveway, even in less than ideal weather. To ensure fast turnaround and high quality, the company primarily operates within the North East area. A typical repair takes around an hour and a half, depending on the damage, so you can have the work completed while you carry on with your day.
Specialist techniques
Advances in smart repair technology allow Base Cosmetics to restore small areas of car bodywork quickly and invisibly. For paintwork scratches, they use specialist tools, paints, and techniques that blend the repair area perfectly with the surrounding panel. Colour matching is done using the manufacturer’s paint code, so only the damaged area is repainted rather than the whole panel, saving both time and money.
For minor dents, they can remove the dents and repaint the damaged area.
Damaged alloy wheels can usually be repaired on the vehicle, sparing you the cost of replacement wheels or long days in a workshop.
For bumper scuffs, Base Cosmetics offers a cost-effective alternative to replacement. They repair plastic, textured, and painted bumpers, dealing with scratches, scuffs, cracks, and minor dents, using colour-matching technology to achieve a seamless finish.
The team also helps customers avoid end-of-lease penalties by fixing scratches and dents before vehicles are inspected. They recommend a deep clean and prompt repair of any damage and suggest booking an inspection session a few weeks before the car is due back to the leasing company. When vandalism, such as key scratches, occurs, Base Cosmetics uses specialist paints and tools to blend the repair into the surrounding panel, providing a quicker and more economical fix than traditional methods.
Customer-friendly services
Base Cosmetics aims to make car body repairs as convenient and transparent as possible. They accept payment by cash or debit/credit card and issue receipts, and motor-trade customers can receive invoices with 30 days’ credit. Quotes are provided quickly; you can even upload photos of the damage via their Facebook Messenger plug-in to receive an estimate or WhatsApp 07977209526. The company’s working hours—Monday to Friday 09:00–19:00—offer flexibility for busy customers.
