Hail damage in Aarberg: removing dents without a respray
In the open Seeland countryside around Aarberg, many cars are parked outdoors, in front of the house, on the farm or in the company car park. When a hailstorm crosses the plain, the roof, bonnet and boot lid are quickly covered in dents. As long as the paint is intact, we push these dents out from the inside using paintless dent repair. The original paint is preserved, which protects the value of the vehicle and shortens the repair.
After a hailstorm it pays to report the damage quickly: first to your insurer, then with photos through our online damage report. Hail is generally covered by partial comprehensive insurance. We coordinate the repair with the assessor and bill the insurer directly. If large hailstones have cracked or chipped the paint, we repaint the affected panels in our own workshop in the original colour.
Parking damage in the Stedtli and lease returns: scratches, dents and wheels
Aarberg's old town has kept its medieval character: a large market square, unbroken rows of houses and the covered wooden bridge over the Aare. Charming as the Stedtli is, parking and the approaches are tight. A door edge against the neighbouring car, a scrape on the bumper or a scratch on the wing happens quickly. We fix this kind of damage precisely with a spot repair, and we refurbish kerbed alloy wheels as well.
The same work is in demand before a lease return. Scratches, small dents, kerb marks on the wheels and dull paint are noticed at handover and are then charged at the leasing company's rates. Send us photos through the online damage report a few weeks before the return date. We tell you what can be put right with a spot repair, paintless dent repair, wheel refurbishment or a polish, and what it costs, so you can decide without pressure.
Save on your excess and still choose freely: insurance claims from Aarberg
If you live in Aarberg, Bargen or Radelfingen, you often rely on your car every day and, after a claim, you mostly want no hassle. So we handle the whole process: checking the damage report, sending the quote to the insurer, liaising with the assessor and billing directly. If your policy charges a higher excess for choosing your own garage, with us you pay only what you would at the partner garage. We cover the difference, which is up to CHF 1'000 depending on the contract. A courtesy car is available on request for the duration of the repair.
This is how an insurance claim from Aarberg works without two trips to Biel: you report the damage to your insurer and send us photos and the claim number through the online damage report. On working days you receive an indicative quote including VAT within 24 hours. We then arrange the appointment, collect the vehicle from your home or workplace on request and bring it back after the repair.
Servicing, MFK (roadworthiness test) preparation, tyres and mechanical work are handled by our sister company at the same address: Garage K.I., your car garage for Aarberg.
Save up to CHF 1'000
The same excess as at your insurer’s partner garage
Many policies charge a higher excess if you do not go to the insurer’s partner garage. With us you still pay only the excess you would have there: we cover the difference. That way you save up to CHF 1'000 and still choose your body shop freely.
CHF 50 less
CHF 50 less than your partner garage’s quote
Bring the written quote of a partner garage or an independent body shop for the same repair: we do it CHF 50 cheaper, for example CHF 450 instead of CHF 500, incl. VAT.

Show allFrequently asked questions
I live in Spins or Bargen. Does your collection and delivery service come out there?
＋
Yes, on request. Our collection and delivery service covers Aarberg with Spins as well as the neighbouring municipalities of Bargen, Kappelen, Radelfingen and Seedorf. We set the time together with the repair appointment and bring the car back once the work is finished.
My car was caught in hail in Aarberg. Do I have to drive to Biel for the quote?
＋
No. In the online damage report you upload the vehicle registration and photos of the affected body panels, ideally in slanting light so the dents show up clearly. On working days you receive an indicative quote including VAT within 24 hours. We check the exact number of dents once the vehicle is with us.
I scraped my bumper while parking on the large square in Aarberg's Stedtli. Does the whole part need repainting?
＋
Usually not. If the paint is only scratched in a small area, we repair it with spot repair: we treat just the damaged surface and paint it in the original colour instead of the whole bumper. If the plastic is cracked or pushed in, it is first repaired or, if that is no longer possible, replaced. Upload two or three photos to the online damage report, and the indicative quote including VAT shows you which solution fits.
Is my car repaired in Aarberg or in Biel, and how do I stay mobile in the meantime?
＋
In Biel: we work exclusively at our workshop at Südstrasse 2 in Biel, around 18 minutes' drive from Aarberg. To keep you mobile, we reserve a courtesy car for the duration of the repair on request. Tell us when you book, or tick the courtesy car option in the online damage report. We also take in classic cars from the Seeland, from metalwork to paint.
