What we do

One Workshop. The Whole Repair.

Assessment, structure, paint and handover under one roof, with no subcontract chain.

01

Accident and Collision Repair

We assess, measure and repair against manufacturer specifications, whether the damage is low-speed car park contact or a major collision.

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

Panel Beating and Structural

The structure sits out of sight and carries the rest of the repair. We reshape, align and gap panels to the tolerances the vehicle left the factory with.

  • Car-O-Liner chassis alignment and measurement
  • Panel gap and shut-line tolerance checks
  • High-tensile and alloy substrate experience
03

Paint and Refinishing

We match colour spectrophotometrically to your vehicle rather than from a paint code, then apply and cure it in a controlled booth for a factory-identical finish.

  • Verified under natural and artificial light
  • Dust-controlled booth refinishing
  • Blend and polish to invisible margins
04

Paintless Dent Removal

We massage dents out from behind the panel while the paint surface is intact, keeping the original factory finish and your vehicle’s resale value.

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

Insurance Claim Management

In South Australia you can nominate your own repairer, and your PDS sets out whether your policy covers that choice. We help you check, then manage the claim, the assessor and the paperwork on your behalf.

  • Works with all major insurers
  • Claim lodgement and assessor liaison
  • Choice-of-repairer guidance on your policy
06

Detailing and Finish

We finish with a full detail and quality inspection under workshop lighting, so the vehicle you collect looks better than it did the day before the accident.

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