KATE PRESNELL BODYWORKS REVIEWS

I found Kate Presnell Bodyworks exceptionally professional in all respects. From the moment I received notification from them that my vehicle was booked in for repairs, to the time I was handed my keys for pickup, it was a no nonsense, friendly and professional service all the way. On pickup, my vehicle was immaculate, cleaned and detailed like new. Thank you Kate Presnell for an outstanding repair, presentation and service. Thank you.

I had a small repair job to the bonnet of my car. Kate Presnell Body Works quoted, repaired and returned the car to me in an excellent condition. The time frame was one day turn around. I recommend this business for all your vehicle needs. Thank you Kate Presnell Body Works. I was very impressed with your friendly staff and workmanship. I will definitely return if need arises.

Really happy with the results on the Land Cruiser bull bar and the customer service. Kate Presnell Bodyworks will be my first port of call in the future.

F.T. GUY BODYWORKS REVIEWS

Researched reviews for FT Guy Bodywork’s four months ago. Reviews were very complimentary so went ahead and booked a door repair. Took four months to get work done because they are so busy but definitely worth the wait! Ladies in the office are very helpful and friendly, work was done very professionally, length of time and estimate was as stated. Based on reviews and personal experience, I can highly recommend FTGuy Bodywork’s in Launceston. Gene

F.T. Guys Bodyworks are one of our most favourite companies We have had work done twice within a period of 3 months, during a very busy period, yet they went above and beyond. Thank you F.T. Guy - we are super impressed with your service.

High standard of service and workmanship and very professional and friendly staff.
