Methodology: medians reconcile live advertised UK salaries for this role and region; 25th–75th percentiles are shown only where at least 5 live salaried listings back them. They are measured or omitted, never interpolated. Rows marked indicative are anchored to our curated 2026 baseline ranges until enough live data accrues. Listings advertising an implausible annual figure (a mislabelled hourly or daily rate) are excluded rather than converted, because converting one means guessing the hours behind it.

Market view. Valeters and prep technicians sit below the band (£24,000–£30,000), MET and paint technicians within it and skilled panel beaters and vehicle damage assessors at the top (£50,000–£60,000 with bonus). Skills shortages keep bodyshop pay above general workshop pay.
