Harrows Collision Repairs
About
Founded in 1962 on Harrow Street by Steve De Graaf, this South Dunedin establishment has operated for over six decades from its purpose-built facility on Wilkie Road. Currently managed by De Graaf's three sons—Mike, Steven, and John—alongside John Tielkes, the workshop employs 18 technicians dedicated to collision repair and panel beating. An approved repairer partnered with all major New Zealand insurance providers, Harrows handles claims administration, allowing customers to bypass paperwork complexities. The team combines traditional craftsmanship with contemporary diagnostic equipment and restoration techniques to restore vehicles to pre-damage condition, supported by a workmanship guarantee. While insurance work forms the bulk of operations, the workshop also services independent customers and local motor dealers. Testimonials highlight efficient turnaround times, attention to detail, and transparent communication regarding parts sourcing and repair schedules. The establishment has earned its reputation as one of Dunedin's larger collision specialists, consistently recommended across the city's insurance network. Customer feedback emphasises both mechanical competency and personable service delivery, with vehicles returned cleaned and ready for the road.
