Default Wheel restoration in Cheshire

Can anyone recommend a firm in the Warrington, Chester or Crewe area from their own experience that will properly refurbish a diamond cut wheel (i.e. recut it and paint the accents)?

Many thanks

Peter

Have you got a franchise called ‘The wheel specialist’ in your area? I think they are dotted about the uk.

^ Warning - result from a franchise is only as good as the franchisee who does the work, any my experience with mobile wheel restoration is that it starts to degrade after about the year for which the implicit/legal warranty lasts.

They aren’t mobile. Have seen the firm in Swansea and what they do, very professional.
