How it works

1. Find a shop near you

Browse by province and city. Every profile shows real details: approvals, trading hours, and the people you'll deal with.

2. Reach out your way

Call or WhatsApp directly, or send a quote request with photos of the damage — it lands straight in the shop's workshop system.

3. Get your quote

The shop reviews your photos and comes back to you with a quote. No account, no fees, no middleman.

Common questions

Can I choose my own panel beater for an insurance claim?

In most cases, yes. South Africa's Competition Commission automotive aftermarket guidelines (effective 1 July 2021) support a consumer's right to choose their repairer. Check your policy wording, and ask your insurer to work with the shop you trust.

How do I get a repair quote without driving around?

Open a shop's profile, tap Request a quote, describe the damage and add a few photos. The request goes straight into the shop's workshop system and they come back to you directly.

Who is listed on this directory?

Every listing is a real, operating panel shop that runs its workshop on PanelDesk — quotes, job cards and invoicing. Listings are updated automatically, so closed shops don't linger.
