How much does it cost to fix the body of a car?

Can I repair my car myself?

In NSW, repairers must be licensed and employ certified tradespeople to do any repairs that affect the safety or performance of a vehicle. Businesses that install or replace accessories that do not affect the safety or performance of a vehicle, no longer need to hold a licence to do that work.

Does insurance cover body damage?

Car insurance may help cover the cost of repairs if the issue is the result of a collision or another covered incident, such as theft or fire. But, repairs for routine wear and tear or mechanical breakdowns are typically not covered by an auto insurance policy.

Can I do my own body work?

There are some auto body repairs that can be done at home. Common “do-it-yourself” ventures include paint touch-ups, repairing scratches, pulling out dents, and replacing windshields.

What is the key to repairing large areas of vehicle damage?

Sanding is important when repairing car body dents, dings and scratches, as well as buffing out a new paint job. However, use a sanding block or a sanding tool rather than your hands for auto body work. Sanding with just your hands often results in “natural” grooves and errors, sometimes even when you're very careful.

Can anyone service a car?

Yes, but only if you're confident you can do the job. It's only recommended if your car is out of warranty, and only then if you have all the tools and parts to hand. Don't forget, the best way to reduce the chances of a repair bill is to care for your car properly.

Why is body work so expensive?

The elements that are driving repair costs these days are the parts, the repair procedures required of new cars, and the technology built into the front side and rear of today's cars. ... An expensive repair for a new vehicle is simply the new norm in the auto repair industry.

What causes common auto body damage?

A general common cause of auto body damage is negligence, which includes any damage that occurs as a result of carelessness. For example, in parking lots it's not uncommon for stranded shopping carts to roll into the side of a car and dent it up.

How do body shops fix dents?

To ensure that doesn't happen, body shops use a process called “paintless dent removal” (PDR). PDR requires no fillers or sanding, as a trained technician uses a variety of special tools to gently and slowly push dents back into place without harming the factory paint job.
