About Us

A Passion for Quality

At Lepsons we are passionate about quality, we love cars, take our responsibilities seriously and keep all our customers’ cars in a secure alarmed warehouse while their wheels are being returned to their original condition.  We never leave your car outside overnight.

History

Lepsons was established in 1994 by Tony Leppenwell, a car enthusiast who sought to restore wheels to a quality of finish and durability unsurpassed in the industry and which was equal or better than the original product.  We have continually re-invested in equipment over the last 20+ years to be at the leading edge of finish quality.

Lepsons refurbishments have set the standard for the industry, delivered by a team of about 40 skilled employees using state of the art equipment in a 15,000 sq ft factory complex.

Our Processes

All wheels that go through a full factory ‘back to bare metal’ refurbishment are chemically stripped (we do not use acid that is cheaper, more aggressive on the base alloy and not at all environmentally friendly) and inspected to identify any repairs that may be required prior to finishing.

Wheels refurbished by Lepsons will look good for years, weather the elements and outlast cosmetic surface repairs (from mobile operators) that initially look good but often don’t last the course.

A programme of continual investment in equipment and facilities ensures that customers receive the best possible quality and service.

Our Customers

Our customers come to Lepsons because of our reputation for quality and service.  We serve both trade and retail customers with a focus on producing stunning wheels.  We provide a nationwide service across the UK and occasionally we refurbish wheels for customers from countries around Europe as well.

Trade customers can take advantage of our free collection and delivery service operating twice weekly within the M25 and throughout Kent, Surrey, Sussex and parts of Essex.

Retail customers can either drop their wheels off or leave their car in our secure and alarmed warehouse – we do not leave customers cars outside on axle stands!  Alternatively wheels can be couriered to us.

Customers can take advantage of our loan cars at competitive rates or use the train: we are located 2 minutes walk from Gillingham Station (52 minutes to London Victoria station).
