Accident & Body Repairs
Collision damage, rust repairs and panel replacement — pulled, beaten and rebuilt properly, not just filled and hidden under fresh paint.
Accident Repair · Paint · Refinishing — North Devon Body Shop
ADH Customs is the body shop that takes it back to how it should be — accident and dent repairs, scratches and bumper scuffs, full resprays, alloy refurbs and powder coating, with welding and MOT repairs handled in the same building at Tree Beech Rural Enterprise Park.
A proper body shop keeps the whole job in the building — pull, fill, weld, prep, paint and finish. Nothing gets farmed out, so nothing gets lost in translation between trades.
Collision damage, rust repairs and panel replacement — pulled, beaten and rebuilt properly, not just filled and hidden under fresh paint.
Car park dings, door creases and hail damage worked back out of the panel — keeping original paint where possible.
Scuffed bumpers, key scratches and stone-chipped bonnets blended and refinished so you can't tell where the damage was.
Panel repaints, colour matching and full resprays laid down in a controlled environment — daily-driver tidy-ups to show-standard finishes.
Kerbed, corroded or tired wheels stripped, blasted and powder coated — back on the car looking factory-fresh or better.
Chassis parts, frames, brackets and railings electrostatically coated and oven-cured — a finish far tougher than paint.
Sills, floors, arches and chassis sections welded to standard — MOT corrosion failures repaired properly and photographed for your retest.
Interim and full servicing plus proper diagnostics — warning lights and running faults traced to the cause, not just the code.
Body repair lives or dies on what happens before the paint goes on. This is the sequence every job follows through the shop.
We look over the damage with you, agree the scope and give you a straight price before anything starts.
Trim off, damage exposed. Stripping or blasting where rust is involved — you see exactly what you're dealing with.
Panels pulled, beaten and aligned; sections welded in where the metal is past saving. Proper repair, not just filler.
Filling, blocking, priming and masking. The unglamorous stage that decides whether the repair is invisible.
Colour matched and laid down in a controlled spray environment — or powder applied and oven-cured for hardware.
Flatted, polished, reassembled and inspected. Your car back looking like the damage never happened.
Gloss, satin, matte, metallic or textured — powder comes in thousands of colours and finish types. Tap a sample to preview it on a wheel. If you can name it, we can almost certainly coat it.
ADH Customs is an independent body shop and refinishing workshop at Tree Beech Rural Enterprise Park — a few minutes outside Barnstaple, and worth the drive from anywhere in the county.

Someone reversed into my door in a car park. ADH pulled the dent, matched the paint and you genuinely cannot see it ever happened.
Failed the MOT on sills. Other places quoted silly money or wouldn't touch it. ADH welded it properly, showed me photos of the work, and it flew through retest.
Trusted them with a bare-metal restoration on a car I've owned twenty years. The paintwork is honestly better than factory. Can't recommend them enough.

It depends entirely on the damage — a bumper scuff is a very different job to a creased quarter panel. Send us clear photos of the damage and your reg, and we'll give you a same-day estimate with no obligation. Insurance and private jobs both welcome.
Yes — we work from your paint code and blend into the surrounding panels, which is what makes a repair invisible rather than "close enough". Metallics, pearls and tri-coats included.
Yes — that's a speciality. Acid stripping for shells and delicate panels, media blasting for chassis parts, frames and heavier metalwork. You'll see exactly what you're working with before any repair or refinishing starts.
All the time. Sills, floors, arches, chassis sections — repaired to standard with photos of the completed work, so you can go back for retest with confidence.
Yes. We handle regular blasting and coating work for local garages, fabricators and agricultural businesses alongside retail jobs. Get in touch about trade rates for recurring work.
