The Body Stable

A car body repair shop seems an unlikely place for a good vibe but it's there. Their efficient service, the A+++ repair on my Holden Cruze and their voluntary updates on work progresses ticked all the boxes for me. I hope never to have to use them again but they would be my go to panel and paint repair shop. See, Miramar has everything good.

Terrible experience. The work was unprofessional, the communication was poor. It took a good couple of months from first assessment to work “completion”. My car wasn’t even put together properly - following the replacement of one external panel, the car was returned with a very dirty and grimy interior (that took me more than 2 hours to clean), unsafe, loose and broken rear seats, an incorrectly attached interior door panel, and an incorrectly attached external rear quarter panel. After four or five visits, the witnessing of a verbal argument in the street between management and an employee, endless disappointment, frustration and wasted time on my part, I eventually got the car back to (almost) its original condition.The body stable was recommended by my insurer and apparently many other insurers. I think they’re overwhelmed with work, and dealing with growth and staffing issues. I understand there’s a new leading hand, so perhaps things will improve.

Whilst the repair of a car was very good quality, the condition and cleanliness of our car was shocking when we went to pick it up. Paint splatters up the other side of the vehicle paint splatters all over our leather interior, and my remote key stopped working. After a week it he key us now working which only leads me to believe that it had got wet. I did speak to the manager who promised to call me back and sort out all of my issues, however he did not return my call. Very disappointing service would not recommend.

Been to the body stable twice now, once for body work and the second for a light repair. Both times the work was professional.I wasn’t able to tell there was any damage after the repairs.The staff are extremely helpful and great with contacting the customers.Will use again.

Would have recommended Body Stable a few years back when I got a couple of separate repairs done, and they were done really well. But recently they really dropped the ball on a job I got done when someone rear-ended me. Had to take it back 3 times for them to do a proper job. They seem to do what they can get away with and are too tight on time so cut corners. Bumper wasn't put on right, they missed clips underneath and there was dribbles from too much spray and not enough on the edges so the clear coat started to peel. In the end they got it right and it did look good, but I'm not sure I'd go back to them.

Nice folk but very slow service and outcome not of the quality I would expect from such a fine establishment.

The staff at body stable are super friendly. They got the job done in the time that they estimated and the results are extremely high quality. Very happy 10/10 would recommend!

Fantastic repairs and repaint. Second job they’ve done on our car- they make it look better than new!

Have used them more than once for family. My son got hit by a drunk driver at Christmas time(still no payout so I paid to get him back on the road for a birthday present just recently. My son seems happy with the work, they were really busy and fitted car in which was appreciated as my specialized mobility van was stolen and written off in the NewYear) Was an unforseen delay waiting on extra part. Kept us informed. Haven't viewed personally as stuck in bed as wheelchair unsuitable (another not so good review to do)

Great service, friendly people and kept us informed all the way Job completed brilliantly
