Best KPortal Reviews

Paint sag, paint in panel gap, run marks and seeds. Bad paintwork and dent repair. Took it back to be fixed again but still not up to a good standard. Do not recommend.
Highly recommend this place. Great staff and made an excellent job on my car. Decent price as well. All good
Very knowledgeable and helpful. Excellent standard of work and done within the timescales quoted. Would definitely recommend.
I'm reluctantly writing this review, so that others in my position don't get stuck in the same situation. I dropped my classic car off with Kelf in February. I've just picked it back up [End of June] with NO work done. I was told 12 weeks, it didn't even started. If you are considering panel work, small repairs etc. then i believe their quality is good. If you are looking for whole car work or restoration - go somewhere else, sorry to say! No i've got a summer without my car to enjoy and i have to find another shop! You just can't get a commitment/date from Brian, because the work isn't priority around other work on... Sorry team!
May be good at body work, but I was shocked how bigoted Mr Kelf was. It seems from previous reviews that people found him threatening. Yes he did good work, but managed to think he was having a jolly conversation with me whilst being horribly, horribly racist. Felt very uncomfortable in his presence. I don't even live in the UK any more, but he managed to slag off my beloved country. Scary little man!
Brilliant you'd never know my car had a dent I was absolutely amazed at the repair and massive thanks ...Pete Kelf
My vehicle sustained a motorcycle accident to my offside door, wing and mirror. My car insurers wrote off my car as it would cost too much money to repair, although it was drivable.
4k was a joke and an insult and part of Rip Off Britain for real.
Thankfully I searched and found B.A.Kelf Bodyworks using Google who reviews scored them highly, so I popped down to observe an employee at work. He was on his knees, placing masking tape meticulously on a sanded down car boot. That one observation highlighted to me they were the right company for the job.
They were accommodating,  cheerful and gave me a courtesy car on the spot!
The bodywork repaired was excellent! No matter from what angled I looked at the body paint. I could not see any difference to my original paintwork.
To cement their outstanding customer service. I asked if they would be kind enough to replace my windscreen and MOT my car. Three days later, I was back on the road-legal and felt I was driving a new car again.
I highly recommend these guys, and they are very cheap indeed, definitely on my radar. I am happy and a sound decision 100%.

Kelfs did a magnificent job respraying the front bumper on my car after someone scraped across the whole of the right side of it. The colour matching is perfect and the finish is amazing. You genuinely cannot see where the scrape was. They did the work when they said they would and they even washed the car for me. Their pricing was better than the mobile painting services and they were very genuine people.
I would use them again in a flash although I hope I don't need to! I'd unhesitatingly recommend them.
