Questions people actually ask
How do panel beaters get more insurance work?
Most insurers now let the customer choose the repairer, which means the decision has moved from the insurer to a person searching Google after an accident. Being easy to reach and visibly well reviewed matters far more than it used to.
What do customers look for when choosing a panel beater?
Speed of response, whether the shop handles the insurance paperwork, and other people's experiences of the repair quality — in that order, because the customer cannot judge the work themselves.
