Bringing Your Car Back to Life After a Collision

After a car collision, it can feel like your life is at a standstill. You may be without a car for weeks or even months, dealing with car repairs, insurance claims, and car rental companies. The good news is that you don't have to go through this alone. At Hobart Smash Repair, we are here to help you get your life back on track. 


We specialise in car repairs after a collision, and our team of experienced professionals will work tirelessly to get your car back to its pre-accident condition. We understand the stress and frustration that comes with car accidents, and we promise to provide the highest quality of service and customer care. We aim to have you back on the road within five days, and we’re also skilled in vehicle inspections, 4WD repairs, and oven-baked paint.

Electric Cars 

Electric cars take a specialised touch and an expert team to conduct the repairs without damaging the overall structure and electronic components of your car. This is particularly the case seeing as electric vehicles have become increasingly popular over recent years. Whether you have a Tesla or an electric Toyota – to name a few – we’re experts in repairing these types of vehicles after a collision. 


As electric vehicles are not immune to collisions, we need to repair them differently from your conventional diesel or petrol car. Usually, we would use a pinpoint to pull the dent, but as the electric components permeate the vehicle, this method could damage the electrics. Therefore, we use a different method, so we don’t blow the battery, a more old-fashioned way of handling the smash repair. We are experts in these techniques, so that you can trust us.

Luxury Cars 

At Hobart Smash Repairs, we understand that luxury vehicles are not just made with metal but with lightweight carbon fibre and fibreglass. This means that traditional repair methods won't work - you need to know how to relay the carbon fibre and fibreglass and reskin or lay a new piece over the damaged area. It's not dissimilar to repairing boats. 


We use a 3 to 4-lay pearl paint, which is the industry standard. This used to be two layers, but the 3-4 give it more sparkle and shimmer – which can change colour in the light – making it look more high-end. We have great connections with all high-end manufacturers to get the needed parts and connections across Australia for hard-to-source parts. We can even source outside of Australia for second-hand discontinued cars. So if you require luxury car repairs, you can rest assured that you're in good hands with Hobart Smash Repairs.

Vintage Cars

Vintage cars are notoriously difficult to repair. Not only are the parts harder to find, but the materials they're made of are often much different than what's used today. Vintage cars used steel and acrylic paint to give them a factory finish - and that's something that's not done as regularly anymore. As a result, smash repairs, and collision repairs can be very tricky. 


Vintage car owners have to be especially careful when choosing a repair shop. They need to ensure that the shop has experience with vintage cars and that they'll be able to properly repair the damage. At Hobart Smash Repair, we have years of experience repairing vintage cars and know how to get them back to their original condition. If you require smash or collision repairs, we urge you to bring your vintage car to us. We'll take care of it and make sure it's returned to you in better condition than when it came in.

However, if you're involved in a car accident, that can be a stressful and overwhelming experience.

We understand that time is of the essence, and we will do everything we can to get your car repaired as quickly as possible. 


However, we also believe in quality over quantity, and we will never sacrifice our high standards in order to meet deadlines.

Handling Your Insurance Claim

At Hobart Smash Repairs, we understand that dealing with insurance claims can be a stressful and time-consuming process. That's why we offer a complete insurance claim service designed to make your life as easy as possible. We work with all major insurance companies and can handle the entire claim process on your behalf. We will perform a quote, submit it to the insurance company, and communicate with them throughout the repair process. 


Once the quote is authorised, we will contact you to schedule an appointment and get started. We understand that your time is valuable, so you can drop off and pick-up your car hassle-free once the repair is complete. If you prefer to repair your vehicle yourself, we can source second-hand parts for a more cost-effective solution. No matter what your situation is, we are here to help.
