Changing the alloy wheel repair game forever
In 2016, we did something no one in the UK had done before: we put a specialist lathe into the back of a van.
That single innovation from co-founders Phil Barnard and Jamie Baxter created the first truly mobile diamond cut alloy wheel repair service.
It marked a wheel revolution in the industry. Until then, alloy wheel repairs meant sending cars away to a factory for days – and dealing with the downtime, hassle, and costs that came with it.
DA Techs changed all that. Now, with our exclusive Micro Lenco mobile lathe, repairs can be carried out to a showroom standard onsite, on the same day.
The result?
Cheaper repairs for the client
Faster turnarounds
No disruption to sales or fleet schedules
Higher profit margins for us
Today, this disruptive approach gives DA Techs franchisees a competitive advantage no one else can match.
From one van to a proven fleet
Our founding vision was bold: revolutionise alloy wheel repairs to make the process as fast and convenient as possible for clients.
We began with a single van, testing, refining, and improving every aspect of the mobile repair model.
Developing and perfecting this technology took time and perseverance, but the results speak for themselves.
We’ve grown into a thriving business, with a fleet that has repaired over 250,000 wheels nationwide.
Now the model has been proven beyond doubt, we are delighted to open it up to ambitious entrepreneurs across the UK.
