about us

Shipley Smash Repairs has been around since the early 1980’s. Established by Mick and Maureen Shipley it has always been run as a family business.

Darren their son commenced his spray-painting apprenticeship back in 1988 and continued working in the business for the next 20 odd years until Mick and Maureen retired in 2007 at which time Darren, and his wife Sharlene, purchased the business from them. Darren and Sharlene have remained in the business very hands on and have tripled the business in size from employing 4-5 staff to now having 14 quality staff including two panal beating apprentices and one spray painting apprentice. It is testimony to the quality of their work and customer relationships that word of mouth has been their biggest advertisement.

Shipley Smash Repairs repair vehicles for all insurance companies and no job is too big or small with one of the two spray booths being big enough to accommodate a 25 seater bus or truck of similar size.
