Guest	Re: RANT:- Lazy panel beaters/painters!!!!! Fri, 30 August 2002 06:29 More to the point, panelshops make very little money out of insurance work , however insurance work accounts for 99.9 % of the income. Insurance companies such as the NRMA dictate prices and turnaround times to panelshops, by means of a star rating approval system, such that they cannot afford to do any other work. If they do not keep the insurers happy the work is sent elsewhere and the shop is left high and dry with no work at all !! non insurance jobs have to take a back seat, the NRMA considers if a job takes 5 hours ( by thier reckoning not the repairers) then they expect to pick the car up finished 5 hours after it was dropped off, whether the shop is busy or not. They work out how many working days the job will take according to the number of hours work and after that time the job is late and the shops rating is affected. Insurance companies are destroying the smash repair industry and taking all the automotive refinishers with them !! /rant. Matt [Report message to a moderator]
