Professional Vehicle Refinishing for Trade, Fleet & Insurance Overflow

Glisten Valeting & Refinishing Services, owned and operated by Mark Hartley, provides fast-turnaround, non-structural paint and body repairs for hire companies, leasing firms, fleet operators, vehicle dealers and insurance-based bodyshops requiring reliable local overflow capacity.

Operating from a dedicated fixed spray facility in Hull, we specialise in keeping vehicles on the road, minimising downtime, and helping businesses avoid unnecessary insurance claims and excess costs.

Fully insured, IMI Level 3 qualified and trading since 2012, we are set up for volume, repeat and contract work rather than one-off retail jobs.

⁠Who We Work With

• Car & van hire companies
• Lease & contract hire providers
• Fleet operators & commercial vehicle fleets
• Used car dealers & vehicle supermarkets
• Main dealer bodyshops (overflow sub-contracting)
• Independent accident repair centres

If a vehicle is non-structural, we can usually repair it faster and at a lower cost than insurance-led methods.

What we specialise In
(All non-structural cosmetic and panel repairs)

• Deep scratches & key damage
• Panel dents & creases
• Full panel resprays
• Multi-panel blend work
• Bumper scuffs & plastic repairs
• Alloy wheel refurbishment
• Door edge & arch corrosion
• End-of-lease damage rectification
• Pre-auction & pre-sale refurbishment

Structural accident repairs (Category C / S) are intentionally excluded – allowing us to focus on speed, consistency, safety and commercial turnaround.
