Autocraft Express Shrewsbury Join Fix Auto Network

We’re proud to announce that Autocraft Express Accident Repair Shrewsbury has officially joined the Fix Auto UK network, marking a significant milestone in our journey. Now operating under our new name, Fix Auto Shrewsbury, this partnership positions us alongside some of the most trusted names in the accident repair industry.

Located just outside the heart of historic Shrewsbury, our 5,500 sq ft repair centre joins the network fresh from achieving BS10125 accreditation, a testament to the high standards we consistently deliver. Our skilled team of seven technicians is currently repairing up to 25 vehicles per week, providing quality repairs and outstanding customer service to the local community and beyond.

Managed by Jake Hodnett for the past five years, Fix Auto Shrewsbury is part of the Telford-based Autocraft Group. Having previously supported the Fix Auto network as a second-tier repair centre, this new partnership reflects our commitment to growth and continual improvement.

“We’ve acted as a second-tier support centre for the network for a while, so we’ve had a taste of what Fix Auto can bring to the business,” said Jake Hodnett. “I’m super ambitious and want to grow and develop the site further. Stepping up and joining as a full-blown Franchise Partner is the next step for us.”

The move also fills a key strategic location between Fix Auto UK centres in Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and Fix Auto Oswestry on the Welsh border—further strengthening the network’s coverage across the Midlands.

Mark Hutchins, Operations Director at Fix Auto UK, commented:

“We are in an extremely fortunate position whereby we’re able to honour our promise to both our Franchise Partners and insurer clients to strengthen the network in key, strategic locations. Jake runs an extremely efficient team at Fix Auto Shrewsbury, and that site perfectly complements our established centres in the region.”

As we take this exciting next step, we remain committed to delivering the same high level of service that our customers in Shrewsbury know and trust—now with the added benefits of being part of a leading national network.

Fix Auto Shrewsbury – Same trusted team, now backed by the strength of Fix Auto UK.
