I'm not sure where to start with this review! It's sort of good AND bad! Well, I'll start with the background. Some idiot bashed into the side of my car while I was shopping. I was only away for about 20 minutes but that was all it took! Of course, the kind person didn't bother to leave a note or anything, just drove off. Well, the damage was really bad, they must have hit the car with some force. There was no way I could afford to fix it myself so it was to become an insurance job. Just Car Clinic was the garage chosen by my insurance company. Things were a little confused but I'm not sure if that was down to the garage or the insurance company. I was told they would collect the car on a certain day. Sure enough, someone from the garage arrived as promised, but not to collect the car, just to do an estimate of the work required. He arranged for someone to collect the car a few days later. The good thing was that they came to collect it, and I was left with a courtesy car, so hardly any inconvenience for me. The bad thing was, when they collected the car, they told me it would take about a week. So maybe I'm a bit simple, but I thought that meant it would take about a week! In fact, when I rang up after a week I was told they hadn't even started the work, but it was in the queue! In the end it took two weeks, and when it came back they had missed a bit, and it had another little scratch that wasn't there when they had collected it from me! To their credit, the garage didn't grumble about this at all. They just arranged to collect the car again and put it right. In the end I was very happy with the work, but really wish they'd told me up front how long the job would take. If they'd told me two weeks that would have been fair enough, but to tell me one week meant I was disappointed when it took longer. Overall, though, a good job, and friendly staff. read more

Great service i highly reccomend. the staff were helpful from the off especially the two receptionists matt and jason who kept me up to date. The repairs to my car were fantastic and to see it come back so shiny and clean inside after the repairs just made the car look even better than i remembered. I was nervous after certain rebiews id read but i guess people only write reviews to complain and i dont thimk theres will be a better repairer in the area. read more

my car went to just car clinics after my peugeot 206 was rear ended, the bumper was not that bad it had a few deep scratches on the black part of the bumper and the rear fog light was smashed. when it was taken away my car was in good condition around obviously just the bumper was slightly damaged.when my car came back there was damage to my passenger side front panel and passenger door, i cant open that side of my door because the door hits the side panel as its dented inwards the edge sticks out so its not level with the door my side indicator pops out as its attached to the side panel.i told the person who delivered it back to me and he pretended he didnt know anything about it. i phone the company and explained to them they asked me to bring it in, i drove the car onto the a66 nears north ormesby exit my radiator nearly blew the stop sign on the dash board was flashing i had to stop. i have never had any problems with my car wat so ever, it was in better condition before it went away to be repaired i wish i never got it repaired from them. now they are still refusing it had anything to do with them but i know for a fact my car was not in that state when they took it i showed the photos and told them i have witnesses, but they still refuse and say it was there when they took it as on the paper that they do before its taken has a circle around that area he explained to me that it was because of the mirror cover that is missing in damage as there is no picture of the mirror on the diagram. iam really disapointed and iam going to take action as my car was not in that state and i had some estimates the damage is nearky 900 pounds worth. read more

I don't normally bother to write reviews but in this case I believe it is a must. Do yourself the biggest favour you can and DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR TO THIS REPAIRER, if you value your vehicle and your sanity! To cut a very long story short After a non fault accident taken in for damage to driver and passenger doors, front bumper and passenger rear quarter. The roof and bonnet were sprayed at my request as a private job. The outcome. Sill extensions removed and not fitted properly and covered in paint runs, front bumper not repaired properly and paint cracked, overspray all over the car were it hadn't been masked off properly, roof lining and radio antenna base damaged as a result of having the roof resprayed, buffer burn marks all over the car, front door cards damaged and not fitted correctly as well as other interior trim broken and glued back on, rear quarter panel full of filler instead of being replaced, bonnet release not working properly and dirty marks over seats and door trims. After confronting the manager, apparently. The 'sill extensions were fitted to tolerance', funnily enough i don't remember there being a massive gap between them and the body when i took it in. 'black paint shows up the slightest mark', that maybe so but not runs, overspray and buffer burn marks from poor workmanship. 'The damage to the roof lining and interior trim wasn't caused by us, and if you have a problem with the radio then listen to a CD', non of these problems existed before taking the car to them. The solution. Having complained to my insurance company and being told that Just Car Clinic apparently have a right to correct their mistakes, I told them that I wasn't prepared for my car to be damaged any further and I would be taking it elsewhere to be rectifed or they would be hearing from the Insurance Ombudsman. Six months later the car was taken to another garage, had the rear quarter panel cut out and replaced, new sill extensions, new door cards and front bumper resprayed. Unfortunately, seeing as the other work was done privately I wasn't covered for that. To top it off the manager and assistant manager are both very rude and I'm sure the cards on the table, that he pointed out to me when I was complaining, from their satisfied customers were probably written by themselves. I'm just glad to know that Admiral charged Just Car Clinic for the follow up repairs as the manager assured me with a smirk that 'they' wouldn't be paying for my car to be rectified. If you have a Honda take it to Springfield Accident repair centre instead, outstanding job! read more

Just Do Not Go There! My insurance company insisted I used Just Car Clinic next time I will insist I know best! Gillian first rate communication and customer service. That's it for the good points, the rest of the experience was at best a total disgrace. The first attempt at the repairing the dent in my rear quarter panel was a resounding disaster resulting in a list of at least 14 points ranging from broken cable guard on the rear hatch to orange peel in the supposedly repaired panel to the whole of the car including the windows covered in overspray. Oh yes they even managed to scratch the passenger the passenger door window which needed replacing. Round two, they managed to repair most of the faults but then made some new ones. Scratches on the rear bumper and overspray still on the windscreen. Round 3 scratches remedied overspray finally removed from the windscreen in total the repair had taken around 5 weeks. DISGRACEFUL. To get the car to an acceptable standard I have spent another £300 from my own pocket at the garage which I originally requested. Best advice look elsewhere. The site would not let me submit without a star rating, I have clicked one star but this is for the helpful Gillian. read more

Excellent Job09-Oct-2010 My 5 day old Octavia VRS was rear ended by a double cabbed long wheelbase Nissan Navara on 7th September 2010. The hatch ALL rear panels, lights & bumber were totally mashed, the boot floor was slightly crease, the end plate on the l/hand chassis rail was bent, the chassis was slightly twisted and both wings were compressed with the passenger side rear wing having 4 creases in it. NFU Mutual (the offenders insurers) had the car taken toJust Car Clinics in Hartlepool to be repaired. The staff were extremely helpful and even allowed me to visit to see progress on my car, they told me exactly what they were doing and kept me informed of progress right through the work. I received my car back on Friday 8/10/10 and could not find a single fault with the work carried out. The car went to a Skoda dealer regarding a problem with the stereo and even they said they could not find any fault's with the reapirs and would not have known it had even been in a crash. I would recommend Just Car Clinics at Hartlepool to anybody, the staff were polite and helpful and the work (although lengthy) was first class. read more

Terrible service fixed my rear bumper ok but failed to replace rear sensors that were damaged in the accident and put the damaged ones back on the car, which meant cutting new holes in the brand new rear bummper. also car came back filthy inside and out and with damaged to computer screen on the dash, which was not there when taken away I even had photos of the dash and instruments with the date showing there was no damange. They basicaly told me that they were not resposible for the screen but promised to fix it, but they didnt!!!!!! never got the rear sensors replaced as they said they were not damaged in the accident? how could they of not been damage if they had to replace the bumper and tow bar??? terrible service from begining to end. First time I have had a accident in over 20 years, what a shock I got in how things are done now buy the insurance comapnies and all the blood sucking leaches that come with it read more

Absolutely shocking. They've had my car for 4 weeks, rang last week to say it was fixed and my car actually looked better damaged than it did when they had 'repaired' it, so i refused to pick it up in the state it was in, rang my insurance company who insists they were doing there job correctly. I was told my car would be ready today, rang back today and it's now not going to be ready till monday. the courtesy car they have given me is bleeding my dry in fuel and im losing money cancelling shifts at work as they keep saying my car will be ready when it isn't, would NEVER recommend this garage. read more
