Expect the best
For over a quarter of a century, our highly qualified and experienced technicians have been taking excellent care of our clients and their vehicles. LB Collision Repair Group is an approved repairer by all New Zealand insurance companies and has gained its status as an Authorised Repairer by most major New Zealand insurance companies because our work and facilities meet their extremely-high quality standards. Because we repair all vehicles to manufacturer’s specifications, repairs undertaken by LB Collision Repair Group will not impact on the factory body warranty and safety of your vehicle.
Minor & Major Panel Beating Repairs
Any change in the vehicle structure outside of the manufacturer’s specifications can alter passenger safety and vehicle performance. Our modern, up-to-date workshop facilities and machinery, which include the Car-O-Liner Inverter welder and Car-O-liner Chassis machine and measuring system, ensure vehicles are repaired to manufacturer’s specifications, by the capable hands of our highly skilled panel beating technicians.
How we repair motor vehicles today can change tomorrow, this is why we are always in touch with the vehicle manufacturer to ensure the correct repair techniques are implemented. We know that having a vehicle repaired following an accident is always something our clients need done yesterday, which is why we pride ourselves on our efficiency and strong time management procedures.
This is made easier in a spotless workplace, where floor hoists and lean processes are used. We understand our customer needs and work hard to maintain our reputation for excellence.
Vehicle Painting
& Touch-ups
Refinishing
A vehicle’s paint finish is one of the first things that meets the eye. The quality and durability of our finish is easy to see on all vehicles refinished by LB Collision Repair Group. We work with PPG Refinish, who supply most major automobile manufacturers throughout the world. PPG paints offer a lifetime warranty on repairs undertaken by our business, for as long as you own your vehicle.
All of our refinish staff regularly attend training courses at the PPG Refinish training Group in Auckland, to keep up-to-date with all the new colours, techniques and leaner processes continually being developed and manufactured. Paint manufacturers are always improving their technology and thinking of cleaner, greener ways. Louie Berkers Collision Repair Group has been one the first to try PPG Envriobase® waterborne paint technology in Whangarei. As a water-based product, Envriobase® has less VOC levels than solvent paint making it safer for our technicians and the environment.
