Victim of Riots, Protests or Civil Unrest?: Revive! is here to pick up the pieces

While the papers and headlines are filled with news stories of protests, riots, vandals and general civil unrest currently, it brings to light the increasing number of enquiries Revive! receive to fix the range of vandalism and paintwork damage. This damage is often caused by thugs and criminals who are unlikely to return to the scene of the crime, let alone pay for the damage they’ve caused.

Understandably this can cause a lot of upset to the owner of the vehicle seeing their pride and joy blemished by someone they don’t even know, they are innocent victims who will now unfortunately have to front the cost of a repair either through their insurance or privately.

Luckily, the average Revive! scratch or dent repair costs less than the insurance excess saving you money during a very distressing time. Revive!’s specially trained technicians will repair your vehicle to its original condition, replacing the pain and distress caused by the initial vandalism with the pride in a pristine car.

There are a lot of home remedies that you might see pop up on YouTube or TikTok that will appear to magically make the damage disappear. Ranging from using a plunger to pull out dents, using a Sharpie to colour in scratches and paint chips, even using boiling water to heat a dent before pushing it out. Revive! have heard them all, but recommend you will get no better result than a professional repair.

Revive!’s technicians are accredited by our IMI verified training centre and always work with the highest quality products to achieve an exceptional finish that will last. This technical excellence is not limited to just our technicians, as every person at Revive! shares a commitment to achieving excellence in their role and delivering a high-quality service. We believe that providing outstanding customer service is vital to Revive!’s success. So, delivering a smooth, reliable and convenient customer experience has always been our top priority.

Protests, riots and vandalism is never something you expect to affect you or your car, but dealing with the results and the aftermath can be a very upsetting situation for many, requiring significant monetary and time investment to rectify damage. Insurance claims can be stressful all on their own, and still require you to pay the excess fees. Then there is also the increase in premium from having to claim in the first place. A standard Revive! repair is often cheaper and less hassle than going through with an insurance claim, and in most cases our technicians can visit you at home and complete the job within 5 hours.

It should be noted that standard motor policies in the UK will typically provide coverage against damages resulting from vandalism, including fire, and looting. Nonetheless, motor insurance policies that only cover third-party liability do not protect against physical damage, including any loss resulting from riots, civil commotion, or vandalism. Only comprehensive or standard motor policies will cover physical damage, including those as a consequence of riots.
