Repair work begins once the customer, insurer or relevant party has authorised the work.

Skilled technicians repair or prepare damaged panels according to the approved scope.

7

Paint Preparation

Panels are prepared, masked and readied for refinishing.

About Renew-it

Skilled People. Professional Standards. Better Repairs.

Established in 2001, Renew-it has grown into the Southern Hemisphere's largest independent network of professional auto body specialists, operating state-of-the-art repair centres across Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal. Every location is a BBBEE Level 1 contributor and 51% black-owned.

The people behind the work make the difference. Our technicians are manufacturer-trained, disciplined and focused on training, workmanship and customer care at every stage of the repair.

Precision

Careful, methodical repair work at every stage.

Accountability

Clear ownership of every repair, start to finish.

Clear Communication

Customers know what's happening and why.

Respect for Your Vehicle

Treated with the same care as our own.

Pride in Workmanship

Standards that hold up to close inspection.

Continuous Improvement

Ongoing training and refined technique.

Our Commitment

More Than a Repair Centre

How a repair is done matters — and so does what a business chooses to do beyond it. Two commitments run alongside every job we complete.

Social Investment

Renew-it supports the Smile Foundation, a South African non-profit that funds corrective and reconstructive surgery for children born with facial conditions. A contribution is made towards the Foundation for every repair we complete — so each vehicle that leaves our workshop quietly helps fund a life-changing operation for a child.

Environmental Responsibility

Panel repair and refinishing use paint, solvents and energy, so we work to keep their impact small: extraction and filtration to control dust and fumes, recycling of general waste with compliant disposal of hazardous material, containment of paint and chemical run-off, and equipment chosen to run cleaner and quieter.

  • Clean reception
  • Clear communication
  • Progress updates
  • Quote and claim support
  • Convenient handover
  • Professional documentation
Ready for Collection

The Final Handover Should Feel Calm, Confident and Complete

The return of your vehicle is the end of a managed process, not just a transaction — final checks completed, vehicle cleaned, documentation ready and keys returned.

Before handover, every vehicle is presented professionally. This final stage reinforces care, pride and attention to detail, right through to the last wipe-down.
