Panel work, dent repair, paint: bodywork for La Neuveville
La Neuveville is a medieval town of gates, towers and narrow lanes, squeezed between the lake, the railway line and the vineyard slope. Anyone who parks or manoeuvres here knows the typical marks: a scuffed bumper, a dent in a door, a scratched wing mirror or a kerbed alloy wheel. Depending on the damage we use paintless dent repair, spot repair or a partial respray in the original colour, so that only what really needs doing is done.
Larger damage calls for traditional panel and paint work: after an accident we straighten or replace the affected parts and repaint them in the original colour. Hail dents are removed without repainting wherever possible, and a stone-chipped windscreen is repaired or replaced. Before a lease return it is worth checking scratches, dents and wheels: we tell you what is worth putting right before the handover date.
From La Neuveville to Biel without driving twice: quote, collection, courtesy car
So that you do not have to drive to Biel just to show the damage, report it online: upload a photo of the vehicle registration and a few photos of the damage. On working days you receive an indicative quote including VAT by e-mail within 24 hours. Once a date is agreed, you bring the car in or, on request, we collect it from your home in La Neuveville and return it after the repair. A courtesy car is available on request while the work is carried out.
La Neuveville sits on both a language border and a cantonal border: to the west, Le Landeron marks the start of the canton of Neuchâtel; to the east come the wine villages of Ligerz and Twann; above lies the Plateau de Diesse with Prêles, Lamboing, Diesse and Nods. On request we collect vehicles from all of these places, and we advise you in French or German, whichever you prefer.
Insurance and excess: what applies to customers from La Neuveville
Many policies provide for a lower excess if you choose the insurer's partner garage. With us you keep your free choice of repairer and still pay only the excess that would apply at the partner garage: we cover the difference, which can save you up to CHF 1'000 depending on your policy. We bill every insurer directly and deal with the cost approval, the assessment and any queries on your behalf. You have no forms to pass back and forth.
Typical damage on the roads around La Neuveville includes stone chips in the windscreen, scrapes against vineyard walls and minor rear-end bumps in queuing traffic on the lakeside road. Whether it is a claim on your own comprehensive cover or on another driver's liability insurance, send us the claim number and a few photos and we coordinate the repair with the insurer.
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 La Neuveville.
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 Chavannes or on the Plateau de Diesse. Do you collect the car there too, and can I have a courtesy car?
＋
Yes, both on request. Our collection and delivery service covers La Neuveville as well as Chavannes, Ligerz and the Plateau de Diesse. We collect the vehicle from your home or workplace at the agreed time and bring it back once it is repaired. We provide a courtesy car on request while the work is carried out. It is best to ask for it when you report the damage online or by phone, so that it is reserved for your appointment.
La Neuveville is French-speaking. Is everything handled in my language, from the first call to the invoice?
＋
Yes. Biel is bilingual and we advise you in French or German, by phone on 032 552 00 03, by e-mail and on site. The online damage report and the indicative quote are also available in your language.
After a hailstorm over La Neuveville my car has dents. What do you need from me?
＋
Report the damage to your insurer, then send us the claim number and photos through the online damage report. Hail dents that have not broken the paint are removed by paintless dent repair, which keeps the original finish. If the paint is damaged, the panel is straightened and repainted. We bill your insurer directly.
My car is registered in the canton of Bern but the accident happened in Le Landeron. Can you still handle the claim?
＋
Yes, where the accident happened makes no difference to the repair. We bill every insurer directly, whichever canton the damage occurred in. Send us the claim number and photos and we take care of the rest.
