Your Right to Choose Your Repairer

By nominating Precision Panelwork, you guarantee that your vehicle is repaired to the highest possible safety standards by an independent, local expert whose primary focus is your safety, not the insurer’s bottom line.

Questions & Answers
Frequently Asked Questions
No, It is a common misconception that your insurer dictates where you go. By law, you have the right to choose your own repairer. Precision Panelwork works seamlessly with all major insurance companies to ensure your vehicle is repaired to exact standards, not a minimum requirement.
No. When it comes to collision repair, the cheapest quote often means corners are being cut on safety, parts, or paint quality. A modern vehicle is a major investment and relies on precise structural integrity to keep you safe. We price our repairs fairly and never compromise on the quality of our work.
No. We act as your advocate. Our team will negotiate directly with your insurance company to arrive at an agreed price that covers the full, safe repair of all physical damage. The only cost you are responsible for is your standard insurance excess.
Yes, it will. Our job is to restore your vehicle’s safety, function, and appearance to exact pre-accident condition. We use state-of-the-art chassis alignment technology and premium Spies Hecker paints, which often provide better gloss and corrosion protection than the factory finish.
Not necessarily. In the past, severe structural damage meant a total loss. Today, using our advanced ‘Car-O-Liner’ measuring and straightening system, we can repair your chassis back to the exact millimeter tolerances specified by the original manufacturer, guaranteeing the car is 100% safe to drive.
Yes. We use advanced digital color-matching technology alongside premium Spies Hecker paints to ensure a flawless, undetectable blend with your existing paintwork—guaranteed.
A cheap, poorly executed repair will absolutely lower your car’s value. However, a premium, structurally sound repair will protect your investment. Our meticulous process ensures your vehicle retains its value and looks exactly as it did before the accident.
Yes, we understand you still need to get around while your car is in the shop. We have courtesy vehicles available for our customers. Just let our team know you need one when you book your assessment, and we’ll get it organised for you.
Repair times depend entirely on the extent of the damage and parts availability. A minor bumper scrape might take a few days, while a major structural repair can take a couple of weeks. Once we assess your vehicle, we will give you a clear, honest timeline and keep you updated throughout the process.
