Trade ADAS Calibration. Mobile at Your Premises.
Bodyshops, glass fitters, dealers and garages send us the calibrations their own kit can't finish. A technician comes to your site with the equipment, and that equipment needs adequate space on a flat level floor. Where your bay can't give it that, the car goes into the service centre covering your postcode instead. The two are priced differently and both rates are on this page.
- Mobile at your premises: £175 +VAT per system for a camera or radar (£210 inc VAT).
- At a service centre: £135 +VAT per system (£162 inc VAT), across 80+ UK centres.
- Itemised written quote per job, so the figure goes straight onto your estimate.
Send a job, or tell us your volume
Give us the registration, what work has been done, which parts were fitted and the postcode. Say whether the car can sit on a flat level floor at your site, because that decides mobile or centre. The booking desk asks for all of it anyway, so putting it here gets the written quote back sooner. Running regular calibration work? Put the rough monthly number in and we'll come back on it.

Who sends us work
-
Bodyshops and accident repair
The biggest group on our books. Panel work is finished, a radar or camera has to be put back in tolerance, and the car can't go back to the customer until it is. A replaced part gets coded and then calibrated, and both lines are itemised so you can see what goes on the estimate.
-
Windscreen and glass fitters
New glass in, the forward camera won't lock. We take the calibration on platforms your own kit doesn't reach, at your depot where the floor allows or at the centre covering the postcode. Glass fitters are also the ones who ask us about regular monthly volume.
-
Dealers and traders
Stock prep and warning lights before a car goes out to a retail customer. Used the other way round too: calibrate first to rule it in or out, so you aren't buying a radar the car didn't need.
-
Garages and fleet operators
The occasional ADAS job that's out of scope for your equipment, or a run of vehicles off one site. Priced per job at the published rate, with nothing to sign.
Prepare the vehicle and the site
Completed installation. Describe unfinished repairs, known damage and any replacement parts or setup already completed. Calibration cannot compensate for unsuitable parts or a damaged mount.
Suitable conditions. Space, floor, lighting, vehicle loading and any driving requirements depend on the procedure. Follow the instructions for the booked work rather than a universal fuel or loading checklist.
Existing findings. Include the repair method and diagnostic or previous calibration result. Meeting the prerequisites does not guarantee completion; unsuccessful work or another visit may carry charges under the appointment terms.
What we take on the spot, and what needs checking first
Trade brings the awkward metal. Most of it is routine. Some of it we have to look at before we say yes, and we'd rather do that on the phone than after a van is on your forecourt.
Send it straight through
- Front camera after a windscreen or a screen swap
- Front radar after bumper, grille or crash-bar work
- Blind spot radar, 360 camera, reversing camera, parking sensors
- A replaced camera or radar that needs coding to the car and then calibrating
- Warning lights where you want calibration ruled in or out before you start buying parts
- Post-repair calibration you need documented for the repair file
Send the registration first
- The newest EV platforms. Coverage moves as tooling lands, so we check the plate rather than guess
- Night-vision cameras
- Two radars and a 360 system on the same vehicle
- Minibuses, vans and anything on a commercial chassis
- Anything you haven't sent us before. Two minutes on the phone beats a wasted visit

Written quote back
Priced per system off the card below, with any diagnostic scan on its own line, so the figure can go onto your estimate or the insurer's before you commit to anything.

Pay, then the slot is held
A payment link goes out per job and is settled before the appointment. That's how every job here runs, trade included. There's no account and no credit facility, so budget for it up front.

Technician attends
The appointment location must suit the vehicle-specific procedure. Keep the result and any remaining findings with the repair file; unsuccessful work or another visit may carry charges under the booking terms.
The rate card, per system
The table below is the service-centre column, shown inc VAT with the net figure alongside. On a mobile visit at your own premises the net rate is £175 +VAT per system for a camera or radar (£210 inc VAT), and each additional system in that same visit comes off by 45% rather than 35%. Your quote is confirmed in writing before anything is booked.
Calibration — per system
Coding a replaced part to your vehicle
- When your job needs a diagnostic pre-scan, it's £54 inc VAT (£45 +VAT), itemised separately. It reads available fault information; finding the cause may require further investigation. A post-scan is a separate operation.
- Two or more systems in one visit: the highest-priced system is full price, each additional system is 35% off at a centre. Scans aren't part of the discount. Front camera and front radar together come to £267.30 inc VAT (£222.75 +VAT).
- Replacement configuration and calibration are different operations. The work required depends on the vehicle and what the installer has already completed. Configuration prices do not include supplying or fitting a replacement part, or an automatic calibration bundle.
- Unsuccessful work, further investigation or a return visit may carry charges, including at a service centre. The appointment terms and written quote set out the work and applicable charges before booking.
- Mobile calibration is available for garages and bodyshops with workshop conditions. Ask us.
Frequently asked questions
Yes, where the site suits it. The mobile equipment needs adequate space on a flat level floor, and that condition applies to every mobile visit. On a mobile visit a front camera, front radar, blind spot radar or 360 camera is £175 +VAT per system (£210 inc VAT). Where the bay can't give us the floor, the car goes into the service centre covering your postcode at £135 +VAT per system instead (£162 inc VAT). Tell us the site conditions when you send the job and we'll say which one it is before you commit.
Per system, net. Front camera, front radar, blind spot radar and 360 camera are each £175 +VAT on a mobile visit (£210 inc VAT). A reversing camera is £196 +VAT (£235.20 inc VAT) and parking sensors are £178 +VAT (£213.60 inc VAT). Two or more systems in the same mobile visit: the highest-priced system is charged in full and each additional system comes off by 45%. A diagnostic scan, when your job needs one, is priced and itemised separately.
Configuration and calibration are different operations. The front-radar replacement-configuration rate is £261.60 including VAT for mobile work or £232.80 at a centre. Calibration is separate. Include setup already completed by the installer; do not automatically add both operations or apply a multi-system discount to the pair. The written quote identifies the required work.
Unsuccessful attendance or work may carry labour charges. Correct site conditions and an apparently sound sensor do not guarantee completion; unresolved faults, compatibility and procedure requirements also matter. Include known issues before booking and use the agreed appointment terms for the applicable charges.
Availability depends on the location, vehicle, required work and technician schedule. Include the proposed handover date and site address with the enquiry. A previous same-day booking is not a commitment for the next job.
The published rate card is the starting point. The multi-system discount is 45% off additional systems on mobile visits and 35% at a centre, with scans excluded. Include recurring volume and billing requirements in a trade enquiry; do not assume credit terms or a separate discount apply without an agreement.
A payment link per job, settled before the appointment. That applies to trade the same as everyone else, including jobs booked on the day. Card is accepted across the network. We know some shops would rather pay once the technician has finished on site, and that isn't something we can offer at the moment.
Keep the work result, remaining findings and itemised quote or invoice with the repair file. Where a customer, insurer or repair process requires a particular record, include that requirement in the booking. A calibration record is not automatic approval by another organisation.
No. Coverage depends on the particular vehicle, system, required procedure and available equipment or access. Send the registration, task and previous findings before arranging your customer's handover. Historical acceptance of another vehicle does not establish support for this one.
