Headlight restoration in Colchester — fully mobile across CO1 to CO7 and surrounding villages. We restore yellow, hazy or oxidised headlights at your home or workplace, typically in around an hour, with a 12-month guarantee.
We cover the whole of Colchester and the surrounding towns and villages — from the city centre right out to Wivenhoe, Tiptree and West Mersea. Headlight oxidation is the most common single MOT failure cause and one of the cheapest things to put right, especially compared to ordering a new OEM unit. UV ceramic sealant comes as standard on every job.
Wivenhoe, Tiptree, West Mersea, Stanway, Lexden, Mile End, Highwoods, Marks Tey, Copford, Coggeshall.
Modern headlights are made from polycarbonate plastic with a thin UV-protective coating on the outside. After a few years, that coating breaks down — leaving the lens to oxidise in the sun. The result is the cloudy, yellow or hazy look you see on most cars over 4 or 5 years old.
We don't just polish the surface. Our process removes the damaged oxidised layer entirely with multiple grades of wet-sanding, then machine-polishes the lens back to optical clarity, then seals it with a UV ceramic coating to stop the damage coming back. The sealant is included with every job as standard — most other restorers charge extra for it.
Pricing depends on the vehicle and the state of the lenses. The quickest way to get a price is to send us a couple of photos on WhatsApp — we'll get back to you within minutes with a fixed quote and the next available slot in Colchester.
