Newbridge Accident Repair Centre

Newbridge Accident Repair Centre is an independent, insurance-approved bodyshop with three sites: Basildon in Essex, Dartford in Kent and Sydenham in South London. We repair accident damage on all makes and models, manage non-fault claims with the other driver's insurer and keep our own fleet of courtesy cars.

Andy Brown started the business in a small Upminster workshop in 1992. We've been insurance approved and members of the VBRA since 2005, our Sydenham and Dartford sites hold the BSI Kitemark for vehicle damage repair, and every repair carries a lifetime guarantee for as long as you own the car.

Had an accident that wasn't your fault? Ring us before you ring your insurer, and we'll take it from there.

What we do

Not your fault?

Call us before your insurer. We claim from the other driver's insurer, so there's no excess to pay, and you get a replacement car while yours is fixed.

Your fault?

Call us anyway. We deal with your insurer, put £150 towards your excess and may lend you a courtesy car if your policy doesn't include one.
