What a fantastic job the Protek Team done you would never know it had been painted looks as good as new. The service I received was excellent I wouldn't hesitate going back if I ever need anything else done. If you have to get your car repaired go to Protek you wont get a better job anywhere else. 1st class everything. A big thanks to Tam and his Team for their work. 05/04/20194/05/2019Maureen DingwallI can't praise Kevin and his team enough for the repair to my car, which was due to a shopper damaging my car and taking off. Protek were a fraction of the cost of the dealer and in total saved me £660. I will certainly be recommending Protek to friends and family and anyone visiting this website. Thanks again Kevin.3/13/2019Mark ThompsonRed2Green Driving SchoolLovely job I am delighted with the repair to my Suzuki Swift where I had a rear shunt mainly on the offside area, all arranged through my insurance company, I had use of a dual controlled car during the time of repair, a great job,. no problems , great service , DO NOT GO ANYWHERE ELSE.

- Tye WatsonI had my Astra VXR in for some re-spray work and they did a great job, Kevin was very helpful and explained everything perfectly. I will be using them again in the future!1/20/2019James DixonGood quality car bodywork repairer1/03/2019JaniceBrilliant as always! I sadly had a small accident in my car for the 2nd time this year! Kevin asked if I could leave some feedback and after the service received for the 2nd time, I had no hesitation! They recognised me when I popped in to have my car looked at and estimated, so friendly and we made light of the fact it was the 2nd time, we think the car is jinxed! We got the car back quicker than expected and again it looked like new! The girls in the office I spoke to over the phone and in person are also a credit to the company and showed me the first visit wasn’t just a one off good experience. I really really hope I don’t have to visit again anytime soon, no offence! Thanks again Protek!12/12/2018William RobinsonMy car went in to get bonnet resprayed Kevin and the staff could not have been more helpful and the quality of the work is excellent I would recommend them to anyone12/03/2018
- SallyHad my poor Fiesta repaired at Protek and Kevin asked if I would be kind enough to leave some feedback good or bad, want to say that they were fantastic from start to finish, special mention to the girl in the office who kept me up to date throughout the repair and for a finished date. You would never know my car had been damaged! Thanks Protek!!!11/30/2018KevinThree alloys on my Porsche Cayman were badly corroded around the valve. The fourth was slightly corroded. They stripped, repaired and coated the three and cleaned up the fourth. All the work was top notch quality and they even washed the car too. Highly recommended! Kevin.11/15/2018Brian McClureI was recommended to these guys by Richard at RGK detailing, so my thanks to Richard for doing so and putting a customers best interests first. I’m unhealthily particular about my car, so the thought of taking it to a paint shop for repair scares the life out of me, in this day and age of volume processing of insurance work through paint shops. Anyhow, the lads at Protek clearly understand that there’s a market out there for quality over quantity and appear to have built a solid reputation on this. Richard at RGK was one of two detailers who recommended Protek and when you start to do your homework, you’ll be hard pressed to find anyone out there who doesn’t thoroughly recommend them. Well I’m about to do the same, only because I value the fact that it’s a rare thing these days to have your expectations exceeded.10/25/2018
When I took my car in for a quote I was immediately welcomed by the owner (who’s name unfortunately escapes me) who looked over the areas I wanted repaired. Now to be clear, 90% of people wouldn’t even know or see what was wrong with my car - a previous typical paint repair (not under my ownership) which was a slight off shade, a rippled clear coat and a few other paint prep related defects.
Now you can tell in a conversation whether someone is on the same page as you with respect to a standard of work, and very quickly I was convinced that these guys are used to working with pernickity folk like me and from what I could tell, appear to welcome the challenge. This is clearly backed up by the odd Lamborghini, Porsche or Lotus dotted around the place, as well as your typical day to day shopping carts and daily drivers.
Long story short, my car was booked in and repaired 4 weeks later. I dealt with Kevin through the process who was professional at every stage.
So the car itself, well the paint finish is flawless and the paint match perfect - a hard thing to do well on a red car. I was shown pictures of the prep work that was performed, clearly showing that no shortcuts were taken, all leading to a repair that is equally as good as the manufacturers (Porsche), i.e. it’s a perfect match and undetectable even under close scrutiny.
My sincere thanks to Protek for putting my baby right. To anyone reading this as I did when looking for a reputable repairer, you will not be disappointed in the standard of work leaving this garage and will probably have a laugh when you meet the owner and his team. They remind me of Kindig Customs, a Kindig Customs of the UK if you will, for all you sad folk like me that like to watch that show on the telly.
Cheers.Brian HislopI recently had the misfortune of damaging my car. After consultation with my insurance company I was asked to take my car to Protek. Having lived close to its location for many years, I had heard a lot of good reports about the way they go about their business, and I was not disappointed. From start to finish they were helpful with advice on what was going to be done to bring my car back to factory finish. Ahead of the completion date they contacted me to advise that my car was ready for uplift. Kevin asked me to give the car a full inspection before I even got to the office to ensure that I was happy with the repairs done. From this experience I can only say that they took the heartache from my driving mistake.10/16/2018
Many thanks to all at Protek. - Steven KinseyTook my girlfriends car to Protek to replace door skin after accident – Kevin was very helpfull throughout the process and provided a quote prompty, repair was turned round quickly and to a very high standard – would gladly use Protek again in the future. My auntie has also had her cars previously repaired here through her insurer – and holds Protek in high regard. Great bodyshop, excellent pricing & workmanship and excellent customer service, couldn’t ask for more.10/12/2018RGK DetailingWithout doubt the best in business! As a vehicle detailer I'am considerably fussier than the average car owner, and have found it incredibly difficult over the years to find a painter who can turn out a quality of finish that I'am happy with! However after detailing a number of cars which had had previous paint repairs by Protek and being unable to pick any faults10/10/2018
I decided to trust them with my own car, an 18 year old Mondeo ST200 which is not worth a great deal of money, however it is my pride and joy, this car was treated with the same care and attention to detail as every other car that Protek work on, an impeccable paint finish, which matches the remaining factory original paintwork on the car, and not a single trace of overspray! Not only that but Kevin was an absolute joy to deal with and a true gentleman.
I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending any of my clients or fellow car owners to use Protek!
RichardAuto Car CareAs a detailer of over 25 years, my OCD has always made me wary of using or recommending bodyshops, Protek changed this for me.10/08/2018
After having my own car and my wife's car repaired through Protek a while back I now consistantly recommended Protek to my own clients, that is the trust that I have in the standard of work that they carry out.Mrs. Joan SummerI recently had my 2012 Ford Focus repaired at Protek. I felt I had to write a small review as it is very difficult to find a trustworthy bodyshop these days. First off, I simply could not recommend Protek more, I’ve had bad experiences at insurance approved bodyshops in the past and was overwhelmed with the service I received at Protek. From the assessors to the office staff, they all made a massive effort to make the process easy and less stressful for me. I had taken my Son with me to pick the car up and check it over for me, again he couldn’t have been more impressed with the work and service given. I would highly recommend using Protek bodyshop, courteous and professional from start to finish, I just wish all businesses could be the same.10/01/2018 - Harry meadenI believe Protek's tag line is "The highest standard", and all I can is, it couldn't be more apt.9/01/2018
My fairly new Porsche Cayenne was damaged by an unknown party in a carpark and from start to finish the level of service myself and my wife received was first class.
When picking my car up the chap in the office spent time going over the car and repairs with me, there was no rush to get us on our way. The car was cleaned inside and out and you would never know the car had been damaged, as a customer I am very fussy! Myself and my wife even commented afterwards that the whole experience was so refreshing and if anything possibly better than the service even Official Porsche has given over the last 10 years.
Well done Protek, although you may not realise, your customer service goes a long way and we would recommend you to any friends or family looking for body work on their car.
Thanks again,
Mr MeadenMrs. PitcorthieI feel it’s sadly a rare occasion these days to get 1st class customer service along with 1st class workmanship, so when it does happen I want everyone else to know. My car door had been slightly dented by someone carelessly opening their door. Protek looked at the damage, gave me an estimate and a date to repair. On the day I took my car in I was recovering from the flu, the staff could not have been nicer. They gave me an exact time to come in, repair took less than 1hr and at the price quoted. Thank you to ALL the staff for making me so welcome and a job well done. Would highly recommend.8/31/2018Lesley AnnTo start I would like to add that I was directed to Protek by my insurance company and being quite a distance from them I was apprehensive about the car going so far to be repaired and as it was my new car I was concerned it was going to a garage I knew nothing about, I’ve had bad experiences with previous cars and garages! I must say my apprehension was unfounded, from start to finish Protek couldn’t have done more, my Audi was picked up from my house within a few hours of my accident and a courtesy car left for me. The lady in the office, (Shivon I think) put my fears about my warranty at ease and explained the process of repair etc. and kept me up to date throughout the repair, something Audi themselves could learn something from! The car was delivered about 5 days later on a trailer and looked as good as new, Tom the delivery driver (and owner I believe) was great and talked me through what was done to the car and a bit about the company, it was something I really appreciated. I was assured that all genuine parts were used and was given a copy of the estimate and costs as I requested. Tom asked if I didn’t mind, could I leave a small review on yell with my thoughts, good or bad, and after how I found Protek I was more than happy to! I’m the opposite of close to Bathgate but I wouldn’t hesitate in travelling the distance myself to use them should the need occur (no offence to Protek but I hope I never do!) Truly wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Protek to people looking for a good bodyshop, being a smaller family run business I think it actually gives them an edge over the big garages I’ve used in the past8/12/2018 - Pauline ThomsonI’ve found Protek Bathgate to be very professional and very user friendly. Telephone is always answered quickly and they deal with any questions or individual needs promptly. Fast, professional and 110% in everything they do. Highly recommended for a flawless finish to your vehicle or trailer as I had both repaired there (Ifor Williams horsebox) both looking as good as new. Big thanks to Protek and their team.8/03/2018Mrs. McauliffeHaving been quoted hundreds of pounds from several garages to have a dent repaired on the roof of my car I took it along to Protek, where they advised me that the dent could be removed by “Paintless Dent Repair”. It took less than a day to repair and cost me less than £100 – I saved a fortune7/01/2018

Great communication and exceptional work. My car is better than new and I would highly recommend Protek to anyone and everyone.read moreread lessBen Mallinson24/03/22I would highly recommend Protek. After causing some damage to the front bumper of my BMW, colleagues of mine recommend Protek, who were over 30 miles away for me from where I live. I then made an appointment and met Kevin who was honest. upfront and knowledgeable. They gave me a time frame and stuck with it, and when the car was finished, the work and quality was second to none. As someone who looks after their car, I would definitely be back if I ever needed body work doing again.read moreread lessRheanne Stirling19/02/22Cannot recommend these guys enough. Firstly got my rear bumper resprayed back in Sept 2020 and had no issues at all and was/is the perfect colour match.
Recently i went to someone else to get a new bumper resprayed and fitted (i got a recommendation) and i wish i hadn’t, due to not fitting the front bumper properly, this had warped my bumper so it wasn’t sitting right and was coming off on one corner, these guys worked their magic managed to bring that warped bumper back to how it should look! Wish i just came to these guys first. Very very pleased, kept me updated throughout the whole process and i will be back with anymore paint jobs i require, thank you so much to Kevin and the guys at Protek for looking after my car 😁😁😁read moreread lessSam07/02/22I found Protek through social media and various car forums and everyone who recommended them couldn’t speak more highly of their experience with the company.
After consulting with Kevin, I booked my Clio in with them for a bit of rust treatment and bodywork.
From the initial consultation to the day I picked the car up, the team were fantastic. I was kept informed, updated and if extra work was needed, it would be discussed before giving the go ahead.
I was genuinely blown away with the finished result. All dents, dings and chips had been sorted and the rot was cut and replaced with new metal. The paint match is spot on and the finish is second to none. You wouldn’t know the car has had paint!
I can’t speak highly enough of the team at Protek. Kevin is fantastic and answered my many emails and queries. The work speaks for itself and you only have to look at the Protek social media pages to see why they get so many returning customers and high end cars. The price was extremely reasonable too.
In short, there’s no place else I’ll be sending my cars for future bodywork issues. A fantastic bodyshop with a down to earth team and prices that don’t break the bank. I highly recommend anyone looking for any sort of bodywork to give Protek a call or email as you will be looked after very well.read moreread lessKaren Wright25/11/21Someone bumped into the back of my car and I chose protek to fix it, as my sister recommended their service.

Fantastic folks all roundread moreread lessKenny Lee12/09/20Reached out to Kevin on multiple friends’ recommendations and the experience has been incredible start to finish.

From the moment I contacted them for a for a quote to picking up the car the service was seamless and straight forward. The on line quote facility was simple to use and when Kevin contacted me to confirm some details and give an estimate I was impressed by the reassurance, clarity and professional care given during our telephone calls and emails. Brilliant job, with a fast and slick service, don't look past this company for great results and service. Kevin will leave nothing to chance and he takes all the stress out of what could be a difficult time. The car was returned looking as good as new, can't ask for better than that !! Huge thanks to the Protek team.read moreread lessMartin Vause27/05/19After contacting a number of bodyshops across central Scotland and reading a number of reviews I chose Protek to fix a small stone chip on the driver side rear panel of my Jaguar F-Type. I am so glad I did. From the moment I spoke to Kevin I was impressed by his knowledge and professionalism. He explained the process involved and set high expectations in terms of the end result. I wasn't' disappointed at all. The paint job is immaculate and looks as good as, if not better than, the factory finish. To top if off the car was returned valeted and looking perfect. Can't recommend Kevin and the team enough.read moreread lessRhona Malone15/05/19My car had a small dent which had been fixed however the dealership (Reg Vardy) had failed to finish the job and it needed polished.
I visited Protek today for some advice and a cost to fix. The customer service was really positive. The treatment I received and the whole experience was gold standard.
The unsightly and unfinished mark was checked and fixed within 5 mins, the whole process was quick and done without costing me a penny 🤗
I don’t normally leave feedback but felt the service was exceptional and removed a huge burden.

Having been turned away from many paintshops in the past due to difficult colour on car, Protek have done an amazing job matching colour and would highly recommend them for anything from a small touch up on an everyday car, to a full respray on something more exotic. The excellent reputation and standard of vehicles passing through here speak for themselves. Will definitely be back for any future work.read moreread lessPauline Thomson28/01/19I’ve been to Protek three times now and I’ve always found they’ve gone “the extra mile” to ensure my vehicle and Ifor Williams horse trailer have had a first class repair.

From the moment I contacted them for a for a quote to picking up the car the service was seamless and straight forward. The on line quote facility was simple to use and when Kevin contacted me to confirm some details and give an estimate I was impressed by the reassurance, clarity and professional care given during our telephone calls and emails. Brilliant job, with a fast and slick service, don't look past this company for great results and service. Kevin will leave nothing to chance and he takes all the stress out of what could be a difficult time. The car was returned looking as good as new, can't ask for better than that !! Huge thanks to the Protek team.read moreread lessMartin Vause27/05/19After contacting a number of bodyshops across central Scotland and reading a number of reviews I chose Protek to fix a small stone chip on the driver side rear panel of my Jaguar F-Type. I am so glad I did. From the moment I spoke to Kevin I was impressed by his knowledge and professionalism. He explained the process involved and set high expectations in terms of the end result. I wasn't' disappointed at all. The paint job is immaculate and looks as good as, if not better than, the factory finish. To top if off the car was returned valeted and looking perfect. Can't recommend Kevin and the team enough.read moreread lessRhona Malone15/05/19My car had a small dent which had been fixed however the dealership (Reg Vardy) had failed to finish the job and it needed polished.
I visited Protek today for some advice and a cost to fix. The customer service was really positive. The treatment I received and the whole experience was gold standard.
The unsightly and unfinished mark was checked and fixed within 5 mins, the whole process was quick and done without costing me a penny 🤗
I don’t normally leave feedback but felt the service was exceptional and removed a huge burden.

Having been turned away from many paintshops in the past due to difficult colour on car, Protek have done an amazing job matching colour and would highly recommend them for anything from a small touch up on an everyday car, to a full respray on something more exotic.

We got the car back quicker than expected and again it looked like new!

Kevin.read moreread lessBrian McClure25/10/18I was recommended to these guys by Richard at RGK detailing, so my thanks to Richard for doing so and putting a customers best interests first. I’m unhealthily particular about my car, so the thought of taking it to a paint shop for repair scares the life out of me, in this day and age of volume processing of insurance work through paint shops. Anyhow, the lads at Protek clearly understand that there’s a market out there for quality over quantity and appear to have built a solid reputation on this. Richard at RGK was one of two detailers who recommended Protek and when you start to do your homework, you’ll be hard pressed to find anyone out there who doesn’t thoroughly recommend them. Well I’m about to do the same, only because I value the fact that it’s a rare thing these days to have your expectations exceeded.
When I took my car in for a quote I was immediately welcomed by the owner (who’s name unfortunately escapes me) who looked over the areas I wanted repaired. Now to be clear, 90% of people wouldn’t even know or see what was wrong with my car - a previous typical paint repair (not under my ownership) which was a slight off shade, a rippled clear coat and a few other paint prep related defects.
Now you can tell in a conversation whether someone is on the same page as you with respect to a standard of work, and very quickly I was convinced that these guys are used to working with pernickity folk like me and from what I could tell, appear to welcome the challenge. This is clearly backed up by the odd Lamborghini, Porsche or Lotus dotted around the place, as well as your typical day to day shopping carts and daily drivers.
Long story short, my car was booked in and repaired 4 weeks later. I dealt with Kevin through the process who was professional at every stage.
So the car itself, well the paint finish is flawless and the paint match perfect - a hard thing to do well on a red car. I was shown pictures of the prep work that was performed, clearly showing that no shortcuts were taken, all leading to a repair that is equally as good as the manufacturers (Porsche), i.e. it’s a perfect match and undetectable even under close scrutiny.
My sincere thanks to Protek for putting my baby right. To anyone reading this as I did when looking for a reputable repairer, you will not be disappointed in the standard of work leaving this garage and will probably have a laugh when you meet the owner and his team. They remind me of Kindig Customs, a Kindig Customs of the UK if you will, for all you sad folk like me that like to watch that show on the telly.
Cheers.read moreread lessBrian Hislop16/10/18I recently had the misfortune of damaging my car. After consultation with my insurance company I was asked to take my car to Protek. Having lived close to its location for many years, I had heard a lot of good reports about the way they go about their business, and I was not disappointed. From start to finish they were helpful with advice on what was going to be done to bring my car back to factory finish. Ahead of the completion date they contacted me to advise that my car was ready for uplift. Kevin asked me to give the car a full inspection before I even got to the office to ensure that I was happy with the repairs done. From this experience I can only say that they took the heartache from my driving mistake.
Many thanks to all at Protek.read moreread lessSteven Kinsey12/10/18Took my girlfriends car to Protek to replace door skin after accident – Kevin was very helpfull throughout the process and provided a quote prompty, repair was turned round quickly and to a very high standard – would gladly use Protek again in the future.

I decided to trust them with my own car, an 18 year old Mondeo ST200 which is not worth a great deal of money, however it is my pride and joy, this car was treated with the same care and attention to detail as every other car that Protek work on, an impeccable paint finish, which matches the remaining factory original paintwork on the car, and not a single trace of overspray! Not only that but Kevin was an absolute joy to deal with and a true gentleman.

I felt I had to write a small review as it is very difficult to find a trustworthy bodyshop these days. First off, I simply could not recommend Protek more, I’ve had bad experiences at insurance approved bodyshops in the past and was overwhelmed with the service I received at Protek. From the assessors to the office staff, they all made a massive effort to make the process easy and less stressful for me. I had taken my Son with me to pick the car up and check it over for me, again he couldn’t have been more impressed with the work and service given. I would highly recommend using Protek bodyshop, courteous and professional from start to finish, I just wish all businesses could be the same.read moreread lessbarrie whitehall20/09/18I have used Tom and the team at Protek for the last 7 years and continue to use them as the standard of work I get from them is of the highest calibre.

My fairly new Porsche Cayenne was damaged by an unknown party in a carpark and from start to finish the level of service myself and my wife received was first class.
When picking my car up the chap in the office spent time going over the car and repairs with me, there was no rush to get us on our way. The car was cleaned inside and out and you would never know the car had been damaged, as a customer I am very fussy! Myself and my wife even commented afterwards that the whole experience was so refreshing and if anything possibly better than the service even Official Porsche has given over the last 10 years.
Well done Protek, although you may not realise, your customer service goes a long way and we would recommend you to any friends or family looking for body work on their car.
Thanks again,

My car door had been slightly dented by someone carelessly opening their door. Protek looked at the damage, gave me an estimate and a date to repair. On the day I took my car in I was recovering from the flu, the staff could not have been nicer. They gave me an exact time to come in, repair took less than 1hr and at the price quoted.

I must say my apprehension was unfounded, from start to finish Protek couldn’t have done more, my Audi was picked up from my house within a few hours of my accident and a courtesy car left for me. The lady in the office, (Shivon I think) put my fears about my warranty at ease and explained the process of repair etc. and kept me up to date throughout the repair, something Audi themselves could learn something from! The car was delivered about 5 days later on a trailer and looked as good as new, Tom the delivery driver (and owner I believe) was great and talked me through what was done to the car and a bit about the company, it was something I really appreciated. I was assured that all genuine parts were used and was given a copy of the estimate and costs as I requested. Tom asked if I didn’t mind, could I leave a small review on yell with my thoughts, good or bad, and after how I found Protek I was more than happy to! I’m the opposite of close to Bathgate but I wouldn’t hesitate in travelling the distance myself to use them should the need occur (no offence to Protek but I hope I never do!)
