our process
1. REVIEW + ESTIMATE
Once we’ve assessed the damage of your vehicle either in person or via our online quote form, we will review the cost of parts and labour and provide you with an estimate of how much the job will cost.
2. INSPECTION + APPROVAL
After you make the claim with your insurance provider, we do the rest! This includes all subsequent communication to negotiate the best, most cost effective and safest way to repair your car.
3. ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION
If your insurance policy doesn’t cover a hire car and/or mobility, we can help get you back on the road by providing a courtesy ride after drop off within the Mudgee CBD.
4. ORDER PARTS
As soon as we get the go ahead, we order the parts needed for your repair.
5. Panel beating BODY + FRAME WORK
The first thing we fix is the body and frame work of your car. This includes any needed panel beating work.
6. SPRAY PAINT WORK
Our technicians provide exact colour matching and factory quality finishes thanks to our specialised software, spray equipment and prestige booths.
7. REASSEMBLY + FIT UP
Once everything is looking all new and shiny, we reassemble your vehicle back to factory standards.
8. ACCIDENT RELATED MECHANICAL REPAIRS
Since accidents don’t just happen to the outside of cars, we make sure everything mechanical is still in working order.
9. DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSTIC + WARNING LIGHT RESET
Nothing is worse than a nagging light on your dash. After everything is fixed by a mechanic, we run a dealership diagnostic and reset any warning lights.
10. FINAL BUFF + POLISH
Arguably one of the most gratifying parts of the process - we perform a final buff and polish to make sure your car is looking her absolute best.
11. DETAIL + FINAL INSPECTION
Since it wouldn’t be fair to neglect the inside of your car, we also provide a vacuum, wash and wipedown of the interior.
12. VEHICLE COLLECTION
Perhaps our favourite part: This is where we get to put you back on the road!

Meet our
sister company
ADVANCED AUTOMOTIVE SOLUTIONS
Dean Sebelic and Simon Leven founded LSR’s sister business, Advanced Automotive Services (AAS), in an effort to save the time and hassle of towing vehicles across town for technical and mechanical services.
Conveniently located next door to the Leven Smash Repair Mudgee Workshop, AAS offers vehicle diagnostics, mechanical inspections, mechanical repairs and wheel alignments, essentially making LSR your one-stop-shop for all of your vehicle repairs.
While the initial goal with AAS was to complement LSR’s services and to fast track the repair process so customers could get back on the road quicker, the community has been so receptive of AAS, that the company has garnered its own clientele of people looking for log book servicing, registration inspections, new tyres, wheel balancing and more.
