News from Yaxley Coachworks: Commercial Bodywork’s sister company Yaxley Coachworks has beaten off stiff competition to scoop the 2014 Commercial Vehicle Bodyshop of the Year title at the recent British Bodyshop Awards.
Peterborough-based Yaxley Coachworks has built up a solid reputation for high quality repairs, refurbishment and paintwork. Yaxley scored highly on the judges’ checklist for a whole raft of performance criteria, including prompt response times, meeting the original estimated completion date, good communications throughout the repair process and high quality repairs.
Managing Director Graham Smith said, “Winning the Commercial Body shop of The Year award 2014 was an honour and is testament to the high quality of repairs and painting that our customers have come to expect from Yaxley Coachworks. We are really proud of the fact that we achieved this accolade – not only 18 months after we took over the business, but also with all the same staff. Our attention to detail and effective communication have enabled us to provide our customers with the excellent level of service they deserve.”
Director Andrew Carver added, “We were excited to be selected as a finalist in our industry’s most prestigious national awards but winning was a euphoric experience as recognition as the Best Commercial Vehicle Body Shop is the highest accolade we could achieve! This has been an ongoing team effort which will continue to ensure our future high standards.”
Yaxley Coachworks was originally set up over 25 years ago and has grown to become one of the country’s most renowned CV bodyshops, catering to a diverse and distinct customer base. It can handle repairs, incident damage, refurbishment and painting on vehicles ranging from trucks, vans, refrigerated bodies and trailers along with specialist plant.
Widely regarded as the bodyshop event of the year, the British Bodyshop Awards is an industry-driven awards ceremony held at the Battersea Evolution, London. At the event, insurers, accident management companies, vehicle manufacturers and independent networks are given an opportunity to present their awards to the best performing bodyshops within their network.
