Our Repair Process

At Truckrite, we understand that vehicle downtime costs you money, so we’ve streamlined our repair process to ensure fast, high-quality repairs with minimal disruption to your operations. Our structured approach ensures every repair meets the highest safety and performance standards.

Assessment

The first step in the repair process is a detailed assessment of the damage. Our experienced technicians conduct a comprehensive inspection to determine the full extent of the repairs required.

Quote & Insurance Liaison

Once the damage is assessed, we provide a detailed, itemised quote so you know exactly what to expect. If your repair involves an insurance claim, we work directly with all major insurers to streamline the approval process.

Insurance Approval Authority

Once the estimate is submitted to your insurer, your insurer will process the estimate with your claim and arrange for an Insurance Approved Assessor to assess the damage and validate the estimate. Once this is finalized, the insurer will then issue an ‘Authority’ to the repairer, advising repairs are now approved and vehicle repairs can commence.

Disassembly

Before repairs begin, we completely strip the vehicle of any and all damaged parts before completing a subsequent re-assessment of the vehicle. This ensures any damaged panels and parts that may have been missed during the initial assessment are picked up on at the start, minimising down time.

Structural & Mechanical Repairs

This stage focuses on restoring structural integrity and mechanical functionality. Our expert technicians use advanced chassis alignment, welding, and repair techniques to return your vehicle to its original condition.

Painting & Refinishing

Once all repairs are completed, your vehicle moves to one of our oversized state-of-the-art refinishing booths where it will undergo a painting, protective coating & curing process, ensuring a professional and seamless ‘better than OEM finish’. Once complete, your vehicle then moves onto the assembly process where you vehicle is returned to it’s original pre-accident condition.

Quality Control & Final Inspection

Before we return your vehicle, our team performs a rigorous multi-point quality control inspection to ensure it meets Truckrite’s high standards. If applicable your vehicle livery / signage is then applied to the vehicle and made ready for the handover & delivery stage of repairs.

Handover & Delivery

Your vehicle is now fully repaired, inspected, and road-ready. You can pick it up from our facility or arrange for delivery to your location. Back on the road, fast & hassle free.
