Yes, our mobile mechanics can refurbish alloy wheels. Of course, before they start with the repair process, they will have to assess your wheels to see if they are still safe to use. If ever your wheels are too dented or damaged, your mechanic may suggest getting them replaced instead.
Your mobile mechanic will first inspect the wheels to assess the damage or need for repair. Sometimes, your wheels may be very dented, cracked, or bent. These wheels are unsafe even after refurbishment, so your mechanic will advise a total replacement instead of repair.

What do mobile wheel refurbishment services include?
The wheel refurbishment process consists of reworking wheels to repair any damage or to improve their condition. While this can be completed in a car shop, it can also be done in your driveway or garage via a mobile wheel refurbishment service. On Airtasker, you can hire mobile mechanics who can handle alloy wheel refurbishment and even do a diamond-cut process.
Here’s a detailed look at what a mobile wheel refurbishment expert can tackle:
Cosmetic repair via mobile wheel refurbishment
Cosmetic repair is ideal for wheels that are less than a year old and have only minor damage or scratches. For this process, your tyre will be removed in order to inspect the wheel for any kerb damage or corrosion. The wheel’s face will be repaired, flatted, and primed.
After a few coats of primer, base colour, and lacquer, the wheel will be oven-cured to make it more durable. The newly-refurbished tyre will then be refitted, reinflated, and rebalanced.
Mobile alloy wheel refurbishment
This process starts with removing the tyre from the wheel. Any finish or corrosion is stripped from the wheel. Then, scratches are sanded out, while deeper notches or gashes are filled out and sanded.
After repeated filling and sanding, your wheel may have a lot of residue on it. A blaster will remove and clean this up, and your mobile mechanic will inspect it one last time. Once your wheel is perfectly clean and smooth, a layer of priming coat will be applied, followed by some base coat. Finally, the mechanic will apply a layer of polish to the wheel.
Getting mobile diamond cut wheel refurbishment
Diamond cut wheels are trickier to work with since they can only be cut or re-cut a certain number of times. Once your mobile mechanic has determined that the wheel can be refurbished, they will remove the tyre and de-grease the surfaces of the bike.
The alloy wheel will be cut using a lathe, leaving it ready for polishing and finishing. The mobile mechanic will apply a layer of lacquer onto the wheel and cure it for extra protection. Once the wheel is available, it will be refitted and rebalanced.
