What we do

One workshop. The whole repair.

Assessment, structure, paint and handover under one roof — no subcontract chain, no hand-offs.

01

Accident & Collision Repair

From low-speed car park contact to major collision damage, every vehicle is assessed, measured and repaired against manufacturer specifications — never to a shortcut standard.

  • Factory-correct repair methods
  • Computerised chassis measurement
  • Genuine and OEM-approved parts
02

Panel Beating & Structural

Structural integrity is invisible from the street — and it is the part of the repair that matters most. Panels are reshaped, aligned and gapped to the tolerances the vehicle left the factory with.

  • Chassis alignment and jig measurement
  • Panel gap and shut-line tolerance checks
  • High-tensile and alloy substrate experience
03

Paint & Refinishing

Colour is matched spectrophotometrically to your exact vehicle — not to a paint code alone — then applied and cured in a controlled booth environment for a factory-identical finish.

  • Spectrophotometer colour matching
  • Dust-controlled booth refinishing
  • Blend and polish to invisible margins
04

Paintless Dent Removal

Where the paint surface is intact, dents are massaged out from behind the panel — preserving the original factory finish and your vehicle’s resale integrity.

  • Original paint preserved
  • Same-week turnaround on most work
  • Ideal for hail and car park damage
05

Insurance Claim Management

You have the legal right to choose your own repairer in South Australia. Nominate Bartels Autocare and we manage the claim, the assessor and the paperwork on your behalf.

  • Works with all major insurers
  • Claim lodgement and assessor liaison
  • Your choice of repairer, protected
06

Detailing & Finish

The final stage of every repair is a full detail and quality inspection under workshop lighting, so the vehicle you collect looks better than the day before the accident.

  • Full interior and exterior detail
  • Paint correction and machine polish
  • Final inspection under colour-corrected light
