About Me

I am an Ayrshire born lad from a small fishing town called Girvan just down the coast from Ayr on the southwest coast of Scotland. I live now in Dumfries in the Barnhill area of the town with my wife, children, and little pug dog, Bear. My working life started off in the motor trade introduced to me by my late father who owned and operated his own coachworks automotive repair centre in the town of Girvan. This is where I was to spend many hours learning how to do basic tasks in a collision repair work. Fast forward to 2019, when I qualified as an IMI certified spray-painter and started ChipsAway Dumfries and Carlisle. I enjoy my work and get a great deal of job satisfaction from taking something that is damaged and repairing it to good quality and standard. I believe in going the extra mile to ensure my customers receive a smooth and efficient level of customer service along with nothing but great repair to their car.

  • I am what you might call "Seriously OCD" about my cars finish and was gutted when I took a chunk out of the lip of my front bumper and some deep scratches. Chris did a phenomenal job on it! The repair is seamless, and the paint a perfect match. Working outside in the weather is not without its challenges (flies, wind, rain, dust... Read more

He kept exactly to the guidelines so there was no problem at all. The... Read more
