Serving Bluewater from our Dartford branch
Shoppers and drivers around Bluewater, DA9, use our Dartford branch, 4.6 miles via Watling Street and Bluewater Parkway, about a 12-minute drive. There is no Alloy Fix site at the centre itself.
The shopping centre's multi-storey car parks are among the biggest in the South East. Opened on 16 March 1999 in the former Western Quarry, Bluewater is laid out in a horseshoe around the old chalk pit, with cliffs up to 50 metres high still visible behind some of the car parks. The nearest stations are Greenhithe for Bluewater and Swanscombe, both on the North Kent Line, with a dedicated bus link running between the centre and both platforms. The site itself was once a chalk quarry, dug out for the cement industry that used to dominate this stretch of the Thames.
Tight concrete bays in a multi-storey car park, like Bluewater's, are a well-known place to kerb a wheel, whoever is behind the wheel. We also deal with cracks, buckles and faded diamond cut finishes from the same postcode.

Repairs and refinishing
Services for Bluewater drivers
Every job is done at our Dartford workshop. Choose the work your wheels need to read how we do it.
Diamond cut
A bright, two-tone finish. A lathe takes a very thin layer off the face of the wheel to show fresh metal, then it is sealed with clear lacquer. Choose this if your wheels came from the factory with a shiny, lined face.
Diamond cut alloy wheels
Powder coating
A tough, even colour over the whole wheel. A dry powder is sprayed on and baked hard in an oven, so it lasts far longer than wet paint. Choose this for a solid colour, or a new look.
Powder coating alloy wheels
Cracked wheels
A crack can leak air and spread. Our alloy wheel welding seals the crack, then we smooth and refinish it.
Cracked wheel repair
Buckled or bent wheels
Potholes can bend a wheel so the car shakes or the tyre loses air. We bring it back into shape.
Buckled wheel repair
Kerb damage
Scrapes and gouges from parking, filled, smoothed and matched to your wheel's finish.
Kerb damage repair

Wheels warped by a heavy impact are put back on our straightening machines until they run true.

Do you fix wheels damaged in a car park like Bluewater's?
Yes, that kind of kerb and bay-edge damage is one of the jobs we handle most often.

A call or the branch page's quote form gets you booked in. Loan wheels, so you can drive away the same day, are available if going without the car isn't an option.
