About Us

A local team you can actually trust with your car

We're a small, hands-on shop in Papanui and we like to keep it that way. No call centres, no getting passed between departments, no being handed off to someone new every time you call. Just Andrew and Christine, and a team that cares about doing the job properly.

Andrew

Master Panel Beater

Andrew handles the heavy collision damage: the dents, the crumpled panels, the jobs other shops turn away. He takes real pride in returning every car to its pre-accident condition, checking every structural repair against factory measurements rather than eyeballing it.

Customers regularly comment on how thorough and patient he is throughout the whole repair process, and he's built a genuine local reputation for tracking down water leaks and hidden damage that other shops have missed or given up on.

Christine

Customer Coordination & Admin

Christine runs the front of house and keeps everything on track: insurance paperwork, quotes, updates on your car, all of it. She's the one you'll usually speak to first, and the one who makes sure nothing falls through the cracks while your car's in for repair.

Customers tell us again and again how much easier she makes the whole process, especially when you've just had a stressful crash and don't want to be chasing anyone for answers.

How we work

Patient & kind

A crash is stressful enough without a repair shop making it harder. We explain things plainly and keep you updated.

Flawless workmanship

Structural work checked against factory spec, paint blended and polished so the repair doesn't show.

Straight up and honest

If a panel needs replacing rather than repairing, we'll say so, and explain why, before any work starts.
