Panel work and paintwork for Lengnau BE: from bent panels to fresh paint
Lengnau lies between Biel and Grenchen on the busy route along the foot of the Jura. Daily commuters know the typical damage: the rear-end bump in slow traffic, the scraped bumper when merging, the stone chip on the motorway. We straighten body panels, replace what can no longer be saved and paint in the original colour, as a spot repair for small areas and whole panels for larger damage. That applies to all makes, from the small car to the tradesman’s van.
Our workshop is in Biel, not in Lengnau. So that you do not have to drive over just for a quote, report the damage online: upload the vehicle registration and photos of the damage, done. On working days you receive an indicative quote including VAT within 24 hours. For the repair itself you drop the car off and, if you wish, drive on in a courtesy car, or on request we collect it in Lengnau and deliver it back. That way you avoid a trip to Biel just for the quote.
Hail and parking damage in Lengnau: paintless dent repair
When a thunderstorm tracks along the Jura, many cars in Lengnau are parked unprotected in residential streets or in company car parks. Hail dents look dramatic but can often be repaired without filler or paint. With paintless dent repair we press the metal back into its original shape from the inside, dent by dent, and the original paint is preserved. Hail is generally covered by partial casco insurance. We prepare the documents for the assessor, bill the insurer directly and, on request, provide a courtesy car for the duration of the repair.
The same technique helps with the dent you find in the evening in a car park or outside a shop. If the paint is intact, dent removal is usually enough; for scratches we paint only the affected area. If the other driver has gone, photograph the damage and the surroundings and report the incident to the police and your insurer. Whether parking damage cover pays depends on your policy. Using the photos from the online damage report, we prepare the indicative quote for the insurer.
Insurance and free choice of garage for Lengnau: the same excess as at the partner garage
After a claim, your insurer often names a partner garage and points to the lower excess there. Many Lengnau residents therefore believe they have no choice. That is not the case. At Carrosserie K.I. you pay the same excess as at the partner garage and we cover the difference. Depending on the policy, that amounts to up to CHF 1'000. Enter your policy number in the online damage report or bring it with you. We handle the claim report, the assessor’s questions and the invoice to the insurer, in German or French.
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 Lengnau.
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
My car sits in the company car park in Lengnau during the day. Can you collect it there?
＋
Yes, on request. By arrangement we collect the vehicle from your home or from the company car park in Lengnau and return it there after the repair. Mention it in the online damage report or call us on 032 552 00 03 and we will agree a time slot.
How do I get back to Lengnau without a car after dropping mine off in Biel?
＋
The easiest way is a courtesy car, which we provide on request and which is best reserved when you book the repair appointment. Without one, you take the train from Biel station to Lengnau station; the online timetable shows current connections. If you would rather not travel at all, ask for the collection and delivery service.
My car was hit by hail in Lengnau. Should I contact the insurer first or you?
＋
Either works. Report the damage to your insurer and, at the same time, send us photos via the online damage report. We coordinate with the assessor and bill the insurer directly.
My lease car in Lengnau has scratches and damaged wheels. Roughly what would it cost to fix them before the return?
＋
You can clarify that in advance. Send us photos via the online damage report: the indicative quote shows what a spot repair, paintless dent removal or an alloy wheel repair costs, and you can compare that with the leasing company’s charges. Schedule the repair a few days before the return date. We can restore cloudy headlights at the same time.
