When a vehicle arrives with significant accident damage, the first priority is always the same: **make sure everyone involved is safe.**
The vehicle can be assessed afterwards.
Accident damage isn’t always something you can judge from appearance alone. Before deciding whether a vehicle can or should be repaired, it’s important to assess the **extent of the damage, structural components, safety-related systems and overall repair requirements**.
If you’ve been involved in an accident and aren’t sure what to do with your vehicle, you’re welcome to contact us first. Send us some photos and vehicle details, and we can help assess the situation from a repair perspective and discuss the available options.
Where insurance or accident-related assistance is involved, we can also help guide you towards the appropriate services.
Most importantly, drive safely and look after yourself. Cars can be repaired or replaced. People can’t.
