Frequently Asked Questions
What makes you a trusted auto body shop in Browns Bay?
We are an award-winning, specialist workshop with manufacturer approvals and a 4.9-star local reputation. Our team repairs everything to factory standard, from everyday cars to EVs and premium European models.
Do you repair Teslas and other EVs?
Yes, EV and hybrid work is a real specialty of ours, and we are aligned with Tesla and BYD. We have the training and equipment to repair electric and premium vehicles safely and correctly.
Can you handle my insurance claim?
Absolutely, we deal directly with your insurer and guide you through the whole claim. Our aim is to make the process as simple and stress-free as possible for you.
Can any Auckland body shop repair my Tesla, or does it have to be an approved one?
Sure, for a scratch or a dent. Structural repair, aluminium welding and high-voltage battery work need Tesla’s specific factory training and equipment, no shortcuts. Get that wrong and you’re not just risking the warranty, you’re risking how the car’s crumple zones and battery protect you in the next crash. You also need to ensure any parts required are genuine Tesla parts, so using an authorised repairer just makes sense.
Do you provide a courtesy car?
Yes, we offer courtesy vehicles so you can stay mobile while we repair your car. Just let us know when you book and we will sort the details with you.
Where is your auto body shop near Browns Bay?
You will find us on Beach Road, easy to reach from Mairangi Bay, Rosedale, and Torbay. Just get in touch to arrange an assessment at a time that suits you.
