A Visual Inspection is a no-obligation, no-cost assessment of your vehicle's damage before any quote, commitment, or payment. One of our technicians looks at the damage in person, understands exactly what the repair involves, and gives you a clear, honest price. There's no pressure and nothing to pay at this stage. Most customers find it removes all uncertainty — you know what will be done, what it costs, and how long it takes. Book via WhatsApp or the contact form to get started.

You drop your car off at our body shop at Temple Lane, Beau Bassin-Rose Hill. We're centrally located and easy to reach from Port Louis, Quatre Bornes, Curepipe, Moka, Ebene and across the island. If you need assistance with transport while we have your vehicle, speak to our client service team — we'll do our best to help.

Most SMART body repairs — scratches, minor dents, bumper scuffs, and paint touch-ups — are completed within 1 to 3 days depending on the damage and our current schedule. This is significantly faster than a traditional body shop or panel beater, which can take 1–2 weeks or more for the same type of work. We'll give you a confirmed timeframe at your Visual Inspection.

It depends on the type of repair. Many rim scuff repairs are completed the same day. Diamond cut restoration takes a little longer due to precision machining and lacquering. We'll give you a clear timeframe when you book your Visual Inspection.

Yes — and you have more control over this than most people realise. In Mauritius, insurance policies generally allow you to choose your own repairer. When making a claim, ask your insurer to authorise Repair2Care specifically. Our OEM-approved body shop meets insurer quality standards, and our turnaround is typically days — not the weeks or months you can experience at a traditional panel beater or larger garage. For full guidance on how to do this, read our insurance claim guide in the News section.

For minor cosmetic damage — a scratch, scuff, bumper mark, or small dent — yes, almost always. Claiming through insurance involves an excess payment and can affect your no-claims bonus for years. SMART repair at our body paint workshop costs a fraction of a traditional repair, so it often makes far more financial sense to pay directly and protect your insurance record. For larger damage that genuinely requires a claim, we can work within that process too — just ask.

SMART stands for Small to Medium Area Repair Technology. Instead of repainting an entire panel or replacing a part, our body paint workshop technicians target only the damaged area — a scratch, scuff, or small dent — using specialist tools and OEM-approved products. The result is invisible, at a fraction of the time and cost of a traditional body shop or full respray.

SMART repair covers stone chips, shallow scratches, minor scuffs, paint transfer, and small dents. Because only the affected area is treated, there's no need for full panel resprays — you get a factory-finish result at a fraction of the cost of a traditional body shop or body paint workshop.

OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer — the company that made your car. OEM-approved products and processes meet the exact technical standards set by manufacturers like BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, Audi, Volkswagen and others. It means the materials we use are verified to match your vehicle's original paint, lacquer, and finish specifications — protecting your paint warranty and ensuring a result that lasts.

A few things stand out. We're the only OEM-approved SMART repair franchise in Mauritius — our methods are certified by the manufacturers themselves, not just claimed. We specialise purely in cosmetic repairs: wheels, body, paint and ceramic coating. Our technicians do this work every day, not as a side service. We use SMART techniques that target only the damaged area, keeping costs low and turnaround fast. And we start every job with a Visual Inspection so there are no surprises on price or the result.

The cost depends on the type of damage and the finish on your wheels — painted, powder-coated, or diamond cut. We provide free, no-obligation quotes. Just send us a photo via WhatsApp or the contact form and we'll give you a clear price before anything is booked.

Absolutely. Mauritius has strong UV radiation, coastal salt air, and frequent tropical rain — all of which accelerate paint degradation. Ceramic coating creates a hard, hydrophobic protective layer that shields your paint from these elements, makes the car far easier to clean, and keeps it looking showroom-fresh for years. It's one of the best investments you can make for your vehicle's appearance and resale value.

Yes. We use OEM-approved paint matching technology to blend repairs seamlessly with your vehicle's original finish. The repaired area is indistinguishable from the surrounding panel — even under close inspection.
