And our Founder Glen Handford I started my career at Panel Rite Panel beaters completing my apprenticeship as a  Panel Beater and Spray Painter.  From there I moved to the United Kingdom for three years where I managed a  panel shop with 10 staff. Other responsibilities included estimating and overall control of repairs.    After this I returned to South Africa, joining T R Tec (Manufacturers of Backdraft Roadsters) as the manager  in the Panel division. Concorde Panel Beaters then offered me a post in their estimating division. This entailed liaising with the assessors as well as finalizing the repairs. Outsurance offered me a post as an Assessor and as I had the background and experience in the panel shop I decided to take up their offer and gained invaluable experience with them. Once I was satisfied with the grounding of assessing, I decided to venture off on my own and started G A Assessing Services two years ago. My knowledge, experience  and networking ability in the industry has grown from strength to strength over the years and I believe my strength is being able to consistently deliver quality service at competitive rates. I would therefore welcome and appreciate the opportunity to join your panel which I believe will be mutually beneficial.
