Panel Beaters | 3Q - Get 3 Quotes

Don’t you hate that sinking feeling you get in your stomach when you return to your car in the parking lot of a busy shopping centre, your trolley packed to the brim with groceries after a stretch of stressful end-of-month shopping just to find that some jerk has backed into your fender leaving a crater-sized dent and ruined paintwork?

At that moment, all you can think about is the inconvenience and cost of finding a good panel beater to repair damage you’re not even responsible for. The point is, though, that despite the frustration, no one wants to leave their car sitting with a massive dent, it’s slightly embarrassing.

So panel beating it is. Despite the annoyance of the task to you, panel beaters are necessary.

The question is, does panel beating have to be such a chore?

Choose The Right Panel Beaters For Maximum Convenience.

Panel beaters have received a bad rep over the years, a reputation for shoddy service, disorganised and dirty workshops and for trying to cheat customers out of their money.

The truth is that it isn’t the majority of panel beaters who provide this kind of service. It’s just not always easy to know how much of a quality service a panelbeater provides until you’ve risked using them.

For this reason, most people choose panel beaters, like doctors, through recommendations and past experience.

Unfortunately this isn’t always the easiest, nor the most convenient, method of selecting a service provider.

Your regular panel beater, or the bodyshop your friends and family most regularly use, might be an inconvenient distance from your home or office, they might have closed down or now be run by new management.

Whatever the case, it will, at some point, be necessary for you to find a new panelbeating shop.

The following factors, while not an absolute guarantee, are usually a strong indicator of the quality of panel beater you are looking at using:

• Workshop cleanliness: Panel beating workshops can’t help but get dirty, such is the nature of the industry. The difference is, though, that a proud and dedicated owner of a panelbeating shop will always endeavour to keep the place as clean as possible. It’s doubtful you’d be willing to eat off the floor of any panelbeating shop in the world, but you shouldn’t be frightened to walk on it.

• Right tools for the job: No matter how talented the panel beater or spraypainter might be, without the right tools, he will never do the job as well as he has the potential to. From the quality of the paint, to the brand of the spraygun, and the dependability of all the varying tools and machines involved, your bodyshop should have spared no expense in equipping itself.

• Professionalism: This is not always easy to tell, but you can usually get a sense for how well-run a place is within the first few minutes of dealing with them. Don’t give an unprofessional operation the benefit of the doubt and trust them with your vehicles well-being.
