Built for the way cars are made now.

Stanways Autobodies is an independent accident repair centre in Lytham St Annes. The workshop was established in 1974 and has been family owned and run since 2017. We repair cars, vans and commercial vehicles for UK motor insurers and for private customers, working to BS10125 with zero non-conformances in 2024, 2025 and 2026. We are Hyundai manufacturer approved, we have a structural aluminium bay, and collection and delivery is free within 40 miles.

A purpose-built accident repair centre in Lytham St Annes, designed by the people who work in it and commissioned in 2024.

Designed by us, for the work we do.

In November 2023 we were given a month to leave our old premises. We bought land, designed a bodyshop around how modern cars are actually built, and never stopped repairing vehicles while it went up. We moved in during 2024. We own the building, so every pound goes into equipment and people rather than rent.

What is inside

Bay by bay, tool by tool.

Sixteen bays, laid out so a car moves through assessment, structure, paint, calibration and quality check without going backwards.

Two down-draught spray booths
Full down-draught booths with gas bake, side-loading and long enough for commercial vehicles up to long wheelbase. Our own fast-track process uses UV curing so smaller jobs do not queue behind a full bake cycle.
Structural aluminium bay
A separate, enclosed bay with its own tools, so aluminium is never contaminated by steel dust. Structural aluminium is inside our BS10125 scope.
Dedicated EV bay
High-voltage systems are isolated and verified here before any repair starts. IMI qualified technicians, with EV and ADAS qualifications held in house.
Hunter four-wheel alignment
Computerised geometry with a printed report on every job, and a check after any structural or suspension repair.
ADAS calibration
Front camera, radar and lane-assist recalibration done on site with manufacturer-specific targets, not sent out.
Frame straightening jig
Chassis and structural pulls measured back to manufacturer data.
Computerised colour matching
A spectrophotometer reads the exact shade on your car before any paint is mixed.
Reception and customer parking
A proper reception, not a hatch in a wall. Courtesy cars collected and returned here, Monday to Friday 8am to 5pm, Saturdays by appointment.
Standards

Audited. Three years running.

BS10125 is the British Standard for vehicle damage repair. We have passed the audit with zero non-conformances in 2024, 2025 and 2026, with structural aluminium added to the scope in 2026.

We are Hyundai manufacturer approved, members of the NBRA, IMI and ABP Club, and work to the ARIES environmental standard. Technicians are IMI qualified and the business trains and upskills continuously.

Come and look. If you want to see where your car will be repaired before you book it in, ask. We would rather show you than describe it.
