I've been involved in an accident, what should i do?

If your vehicle requires towing please call our 24hr towing service on 0407 597 079. If your vehicle is drivable please pop in at a time convenient for you. We can assist you with lodging your claim with your insurance provider and getting the repair process under way with the least amount of inconvenience to you.

do i have the right to choose my repairer?

The majority of insurance providers allow you to choose your preferred repairer. We do, however, recommend to regularly check your policy to ensure there are no changes to this.

Whilst, at times, it may seem convenient to leave it up to your insurance provider to organise repairs to your vehicle this can sometimes jeopardise the standard of repairs. To ensure your vehicle is always repaired to the highest factory standard and with genuine parts be sure to tell your insurance provider that H Harvey Prestige is your preferred repairer when making your claim.

what vehicle manufacturers are you accredited with?

We are an authorised Mercedes-Benz Autobody Repairer, an approved Lexus Body and Paint Repairer, a Porsche Certified Collision Centre, a Tesla Approved Body Shop and an Authorised Bentley Repairer.

are you a recommended repairer for my insurance provider?

can i obtain a quote for repairs over the phone?

Unfortunately we do need to see your vehicle in person so we can view the full extent of the damages.

do i need to make an appointment to receive a quote on my vehicle?

An appointment for a quotation is not necessary. Pop in at a time convenient for you. We have an estimator on site Monday-Friday between 7:30am and 2pm who can provide you with a quote while you wait.

what should i bring with me when i come in for a quote?

If you intend to claim the accident through insurance please bring your insurance details and claim number with you.

do you offer mobile estimating?

what happens after i have received a quote?

If you intend to go through insurance we send the quotation off to your insurance company on your behalf, who then assess your vehicle. Once we have authority to commence repairs we will contact you to book your vehicle in for repairs at a time that suits you.

how long will repairs to my vehicle take?

Each and every job is different. When you bring your vehicle in for a quotation our Estimator will provide essential information to you such as when we are able to commence your repairs and approximately how long the repair process will take.

We will endeavour to complete the repair within the shortest possible time and estimated time frame, however quality will not be comprised. If there are any unforeseen delays you will be notified immediately.
