SMART repairer Revive! has opened a new franchise in Blackburn.

Owners and directors Liam Loughlin and Tim Osman are running the business, which only uses repair technicians accredited by the Institute of the Motor Industry.

Loughlin said: “Our aim is to establish Revive! as the number one vehicle bodywork repairer in the area.

“We will work hard to establish ourselves, earn a good reputation and build a solid base of work and look forward to meeting the teams at local car dealerships.”

Revive! UK managing director Mark Llewellyn said: “The volume of our national account work has almost doubled over the past twelve months and we’re expanding our network of accredited technicians to expand our coverage even further to meet demand.”

Revive! works with car dealerships, fleet and lease companies, insurance companies and the general public.
