WHO WE ARE AND WHAT MAKES US SPECIAL

Expertise since 2004

My journey in the automotive sector began in 2004 with an apprenticeship as a car painter, which I completed at Toyota Lexus. Over the following 12 years, I gained extensive experience as a journeyman and focussed primarily on accident repairs. In 2016, I became self-employed with a vehicle repair workshop and also focussed on vehicle repairs after an accident.


In 2018, I successfully completed my master car painter qualification and then completed the expert certificate in a full-time seminar at the TÜV Rheinland Academy in Berlin. This certificate allows me to offer you the full expertise of an expert and to support you after an accident with a fast, reliable and legally compliant expert opinion.

OUR SERVICES

Damage assessment for your vehicle

Our main tasks as independent motor vehicle experts include, on the one hand, determining the amount of damage to accident-damaged and damaged vehicles. On the other hand, we determine the replacement value, the residual value and the mercantile depreciation of your vehicle.


These appraisals are important if you have been involved in an accident and it is necessary to determine the amount of damage, the residual value and the replacement value of your vehicle. We are aware of our responsibility and take on this work as a certified appraisal office.


In addition to these more negative reasons, there are also positive reasons to have us prepare a valuation report. One example is the sale of your vehicle. As the owner, you want to know what your car is worth and at what price you can sell it. In this and similar cases, simply contact us: we will determine the value of your vehicle precisely and reliably.


We are always there for you when it comes to preparing valuations. This also applies to professional buyers or private buyers who want to purchase a used vehicle.

We offer you a comprehensive service and take all the work off your hands, especially after an accident. In the event of a liability claim, we provide you with all services from a single source.

We work for you throughout Berlin and within a radius of 120 kilometres.

Motor vehicle appraisal

The motor vehicle appraisal is always orientated towards your needs and takes into account the reason why you require an appraisal. An accident report and damage report as well as a valuation report are possible. I can also support you with a short or special appraisal. In addition to cars and lorries, I also appraise boats, caravans and motorbikes for you and ensure that every appraisal is legally compliant and precise. Particularly in the case of an accident report or damage report, you benefit from an independent expert who exclusively represents your rights. You can rely on an independent opinion and ensure that the report lists all damage in its actual scope.

Motorbike expertise

Regardless of whether it's an accident or pure value interest: A motorbike appraisal is required in many cases. Knowing the exact current value of your motorbike is important, for example, if you want to determine the optimum insurance rate, need to quantify the value due to theft or are planning to buy or sell a motorbike. Even if you own a customised motorbike or a classic car or are planning to buy one, it is a decisive advantage to know the exact value. In the event of an accident, it is also essential to determine the exact extent and amount of damage in order to optimise the accident settlement. It also makes sense to have a professional motorbike appraisal carried out with regard to tax matters and inheritance.

Used car check

Would you like to buy or sell a used car, but don't know what the vehicle is worth? A used car check is very helpful to maximise the sales price or to decide on an acceptable price when buying. As an independent expert, I am also at your side when it comes to identifying hidden accident damage or improper modifications to the vehicle. By relying on detailed vehicle documentation before buying a used car, you can also avoid disputes that may arise after the purchase. With a used car check, you can play it safe - both visually and in terms of the technology installed.

Car repair

If you have been involved in an accident with your vehicle, it is important to have the damage repaired professionally. Depending on who carries out these repairs for you, you as a layperson may not have any particular insight into how the repairs are actually carried out. As an independent expert, I will check your vehicle down to the last detail and ensure that all accident damage has been repaired professionally. This repair confirmation guarantees you that the repair has been carried out in a verifiable manner.

Car paintwork

At first glance, a vehicle's paintwork may appear flawless. The paintwork appears flawless, fresh and professional. But appearances can be deceptive: What is often not apparent to laypeople is hidden accident damage, unprofessional paintwork and old layers of paint. A professional paint layer measurement provides information about these possible aspects. It is useful if you want to prove accident damage, check a repair to the paintwork or take a close look at a used car. As an independent expert, I can support you in this area with professional equipment, a professional approach and a legally compliant report.

Car body construction

After an accident, it may be necessary to repair the bodywork of your vehicle. You can have this repair carried out by a workshop of your choice. To ensure that the repairs are carried out professionally, I will provide you with a repair certificate as an independent expert. In addition to the effects of an accident, bodywork can also be important when buying a used car. It is possible that the vehicle of your choice has hidden damage or has been improperly converted. These defects can be uncovered by an expert so that you can also benefit from an expert opinion before buying a used car.

Vehicle valuation

The value of a vehicle is determined by means of a so-called valuation report. It is used on numerous occasions and provides a precise and legally secure statement of how much your vehicle is worth. A valuation report is recommended if you want to find out the current value of your car and also if you are planning to buy or sell a vehicle. If you are not sure what price you can ask for or accept for a used car, a vehicle valuation by an independent expert will help you. I can also support you if you have inherited a vehicle and now need to quantify the value for the tax office. The well-founded vehicle valuation by a motor vehicle expert helps you to categorise your vehicle economically for submission to the tax office. The preparation of a valuation report may be necessary for business customers, for example, in order to have vehicles valued for tax purposes, when withdrawing them from business assets or to determine the value of the company fleet.

Caravan

An accident, especially with motorhomes, which are often expensive and customised, can be an extremely stressful situation. This is where we come in as valuable support. A qualified surveyor specialising in motorhomes and caravans has extensive knowledge and experience. By contacting the Jacek Frania motor vehicle surveyor's office, you can have the damage professionally assessed.
