After a car accident, dealing with the aftermath can be overwhelming. One of the main concerns is getting your vehicle repaired. You may be wondering whose insurance covers the repair costs and how to navigate the process. In this article, we will discuss car repairs and provide you with the information you need to make informed decisions.
We have been operating for almost 2 decades as the go-to in Millbrook and surrounding Southampton areas for getting your car repaired and back into shape after an accident. We are fully qualified, with approval from BSI to carry out any insurance work/ repairs you may need on your vehicle.
Many motorists assume they have to use their insurance company’s preferred car repairer, however, you have the right to choose who fixes your car.
Choosing us for your insurance work eliminates the chance your insurance supplier will direct your claim to their preferred repairers which may lead to inflated prices and potentially lower-quality work being carried out.
