Smash repairs in Preston, without leaving home

With tram lines, busy High Street traffic and tight side streets, Preston cars collect their share of scrapes and dings.

Instead of finding a panel shop in Preston, booking a drop-off and working out how you’ll get around, you send us photos and we take it from there. We collect your car from your home or workplace (or you drop it off if that suits you better), a trusted partner workshop repairs it, and it comes back to you in Preston.

Busy arterials, growing estates and long commutes mean plenty of car park scrapes and stop-start nudges. We collect from homes and workplaces right across Melbourne’s north.

Had an accident in or around Preston that wasn’t your fault?

If another driver caused it and they’re insured, their insurer should pay for your repairs and a comparable replacement car while yours is off the road — so you don’t claim on your own policy or pay an excess. We collect your car from Preston, drop off a replacement and handle the claim with their insurer. How not-at-fault claims work.

Repairs we arrange

Everything from a scuffed bumper to major collision damage: panel beating, bumper repairs, scratch repair, dent repair, paintless dent removal and paint repairs. Every job gets a written quote before work starts.

FAQ

Smash repairs Preston: FAQ

Do you have a panel shop in Preston?
You don’t have to bring your car anywhere — we can collect it from you in Preston, have it repaired at one of our trusted partner workshops and return it. If you’d rather drop it off, that’s fine too. Either way, you deal with us the whole way through.
How quickly can you collect from Preston?
Send photos and your details and we’ll arrange a collection (or drop-off) time that suits you. We organise your replacement car at the same time — replacement or courtesy car — so you’re not left without one.
Is it really free if I’m not at fault?
When the other driver is at fault, they’re insured and their insurer accepts liability, your repair and replacement car costs are recovered from their insurer — not from you. We check the details and explain everything before you sign.
Do you also cover Epping?
Yes — we collect across Greater Melbourne, the Mornington Peninsula and Geelong, including Reservoir, Thornbury, Northcote, Bundoora and Epping.
