Good morning

Can anyone recommend a caravan body repair company in Merseyside. We have a deep scratch which needs sorting asap.

Many thanks

    If you look back to last weeks post by sandgroper on similar repairs to a Bailey you will see that three members suggested Crossley coachcraft in Leyland, Lancs. If you have a look on their website you will see that you can get an estimate by emailing a
    picture of the damage. Depending on which side of the Mersey you are they may not be too far from you.

    Crossleys certainly weren't cheap but in terms of quality of repair and professionalism I guess you get what you pay for. My dealers quote for the repair was only a little cheaper but after seeing the Crossley set up, there's no way the dealer could have
    achieved such a good result.

    Might be too far away, but West Riding Leisure in Huddersfield did a great repair for me.

    Many thanks for all the recommendations, very much appreciated.

    I asked Crossleys for a quote and another company which only replied today.  If Crossleys professional approach during the quote process is matched by their workmanship, I'll be very happy.  Can't fault them at this stage and also I think the price is very reasonable for what I've asked them to do.

    I have paid a deposit so that they can order parts.

    I will report back after the work.

    Thanks again.

    Whatever you do, do not let it go to Bailey factory for repair,
