Appraisal office
When in doubt: measure.
After an accident, it's not who argues loudest — it's who documents best. Our appraisers produce reports that hold up with insurers and in court, and that you can understand without a law degree.
We work for you, not for the insurer. If the accident wasn't your fault, the other party's insurance usually covers the appraisal cost.
Complete damage documentation, calculated with recognised industry systems, including diminished value and loss of use.
Inspection within 24 hours, on site at your location if needed. Short-form reports within 48 hours.
Dipl. Ing. Friedrich Kuchel — owner and IHK-certified vehicle appraiser. Here, appraisals are the boss’s business.
The North-German way: few words, clear order. You know at every point what's happening and what it costs.

You describe, we listen. First assessment right at the vehicle.

Findings with a cost estimate — in writing, before a single wrench is lifted.
Approval
No line item without your yes. A fixed price stays fixed.
Handover
Explained and test-driven. Old parts in the boot on request.
Finding · belt drive Worn tensioner pulley, cracked ribbed belt — a typical finding at 120,000 km. Exactly the kind of thing we catch during an inspection, before it leaves you stranded. Auxiliary drives are part of every check we do.

FAQ
Quick answers.
Do I need an appointment?
Not necessarily: Mon–Thu until 4 pm we take vehicles in without an appointment. For trucks, please call ahead — then the right service pit is ready for you.
Do you do the roadworthiness test (HU/AU) on site?
Yes. HU and emissions tests run in cooperation with GTÜ directly on our premises — no extra trip to a test centre.
What does an accident damage report cost?
If the accident wasn't your fault, the other party's insurance usually covers the cost. We clarify who pays before we start — just give us a call.
Which vehicles and makes do you take?
All makes, brand-independent — from cars and motorhomes up to 50-tonne semi trucks. Classics, especially vintage Mercedes, are in good hands here too.
How fast can I get an appraisal?
Inspection within 24 hours, at your location if needed. Short-form reports are delivered within 48 hours.
How can I pay?
Cash, EC card (girocard), Visa, Mastercard, American Express, plus Apple Pay and Google Pay.
