Panel Beaters for Bordeaux

Accident, dent and paint repair, a short run from Bordeaux via Main Street and Bram Fischer Drive, with itemised quotes and a written 12-month workmanship warranty.

Serving Bordeaux

Bordeaux is one of our nearest neighbours, about 1.5 km from the workshop as the crow flies. It's bordered by Jan Smuts Avenue and the Braamfontein Spruit, with Main Street and Republic Road running through it. The drive to us is short and simple: Main Street to Dover Street, a few hundred metres of Bram Fischer Drive, then Bond Street, and you're at 6 Alexander St, Kensington B, Randburg. From the southern end, near Old Parks Sports Club, Jan Smuts Avenue becomes Bram Fischer Drive and brings you the same way.

It's a small, settled suburb, established in 1940 and named after the French city, which is why its streets carry names like Paris Avenue, Napoleon Avenue and Huguenot Avenue. Family homes fill the quiet streets, offices and shops cluster around Republic Road and Main Street, and Bordeaux Primary School on Evelyn Avenue adds a school run to the morning traffic. The knocks that follow are familiar ones: a gatepost clipped while reversing, a bumper nudged in a queue on Republic Road, a door creased in a tight parking bay.

Whatever the damage, the approach is the same. You get a free, accurate and itemised quote and a firm completion date before work starts. We computer-match to your factory paint code, repair or refinish the panel, and quality-check it before you collect, with a written 12-month workmanship warranty* behind it. Brilliant Shine has worked this way, owner-led, since 1998.

Why Bordeaux drivers choose us

Close to home, finished to factory.

Main Street to Bond Street

From most of Bordeaux it's Main Street, Dover Street and a short stretch of Bram Fischer Drive to Bond Street, and our road turns off it. That's close enough to drop the car off on your way to work.

Not every dent needs a respray

Where the paint is unbroken, paintless dent removal works the metal back from behind and keeps your factory finish. Where it isn't, we repair, prime and refinish the panel in our downdraft booth and blend the colour into the panels around it. We'll tell you honestly which your car needs.

Straight answers on insurance

Claiming? You lodge the claim with your own insurer using our itemised quote, and once it's approved we carry out the repair. On most claims you can choose your own repairer, so you can bring the job to us instead of your insurer's preferred shop.

Good to know

Questions from Bordeaux drivers.

From most of Bordeaux, take Main Street to Dover Street, join Bram Fischer Drive briefly, then turn onto Bond Street; our road comes off Bond Street. From the southern end near Old Parks Sports Club on Garden Road, Jan Smuts Avenue runs straight into Bram Fischer Drive. Either way, you'll find us at 6 Alexander St, Kensington B, Randburg, open Monday to Friday, 08:00 to 16:30.

Usually, yes. Small damage is often simpler to put right than people expect, and some dents come out with paintless dent removal and no paint at all. Request a free quote through the form on our contact page with a couple of photos, or bring the car in, and we'll tell you honestly whether it's worth doing. For a quick question first, WhatsApp us.

That depends on the damage and on parts, so we don't promise a number of days before we've seen the car. Once we have, you get a firm completion date with your quote, and we work to it. You bring the car to us and fetch it when it's done; we don't offer collection or a courtesy car.
