Stone chips and paint damage on the A16 at Péry and La Reuchenette

At La Reuchenette the valley of the Suze is narrow: motorway, cantonal road, railway line and the cement works share little space, and lorries use the route too. Anyone driving here daily knows stone chips in the windscreen and chipped paint on bonnet and bumper. Small chips in the glass can often be repaired as long as no crack forms; otherwise we replace the windscreen. We touch up paint chips locally so that rust does not take hold and the car keeps its value.

Quote from Péry, repair in Biel: accident, hail and parking damage

Whether it is a rear-end bump before the tunnel, a slide on a snowy road in the valley or parking damage at Reuchenette-Péry station, you do not need to drive to Biel for an assessment. Upload the vehicle registration and photos of the damage on our website. On working days you receive an indicative quote including VAT within 24 hours. Only once you agree do we set the repair date. Then you either drop the car off in Biel on your way to work and drive on in a replacement car on request, or we collect it by arrangement in Péry, La Heutte or Rondchâtel and return it repaired.

The work itself is done in our own workshop. After an accident we straighten the panels, replace what cannot be saved and paint in the manufacturer's original colour. Hail dents and door dings where the paint is intact are pushed out by paintless dent repair, so the factory paint stays untouched. If the paint is damaged, we repaint only as much as necessary. If needed, we repair a wheel or restore the headlights at the same time.

Insurance, excess and lease return: handled in French

Péry-La Heutte is French-speaking, and a claim is complicated enough without having to explain it in another language. With us you discuss the quote, the process and insurance questions in French. We bill every insurer directly. If your policy specifies a partner garage and otherwise a higher excess, we cover the difference: you pay the same excess as at the partner garage and save up to CHF 1'000 without giving up the body shop of your choice.

It is worth a look even without a claim: before returning a leased car, send us a few photos of scratches, dents and damaged wheels. You receive an indicative quote and decide at your leisure what to have put right before the handover.

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 Péry-La Heutte.

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.

Where exactly is my car from Péry-La Heutte repaired?

+

In Biel. Our workshop is at Südstrasse 2 in Biel, about 12 minutes from Péry.

Online, by phone on 032 552 00 03 and at the workshop, everything can be handled in French or German.

I live in La Reuchenette. Do you collect the car there, and do I get a replacement car?

+

Yes, on request. Our collection and delivery service covers Péry, La Heutte, La Reuchenette and Rondchâtel as well as the neighbouring villages of Frinvillier, Plagne and Vauffelin; we fix the date as soon as you have approved the repair. On request, we can provide a replacement car for the duration of the repair. Tell us when you report the damage, so that it is reserved for you.

My car was caught in hail in Péry. Does it need repainting?

+

Usually not. As long as the paint is intact, we push the dents out by paintless dent repair and the original paint is kept. Only where the paint has cracked or flaked do we fill and repaint. Hail is generally covered by partial comprehensive insurance: report the damage to your insurer and send us photos, and we bill the insurer directly.

I got a stone chip in my windscreen on the A16 near La Heutte. Repair or replace?

+

It depends on size and position: small chips outside the direct field of vision can often be repaired, while cracks or damage in the field of vision mean a new windscreen. Send us a photo and we will assess it. Do not wait too long, because temperature changes quickly turn a chip into a crack.
