McHale Autobody & Commercial celebrates fifth anniversary
16/06/2023
McHale Autobody & Commercial is a leading spray painting and crash repair centre in Co. Galway which is celebrating five years in business.
Strategically located on the outskirts of Galway city, the company has gone from strength to strength since it was set up by Eoin McHale in October 2018. A panel beater by trade, Eoin and his small but dedicated team provide top-class spray painting, crash repair and panel beating services from light to heavy damage on all types of vehicles six days a week from their workshop at Unit 1, Middle Third, Maree, Oranmore.
“We are here to help with all your spray painting and crash repair needs,” the affable Caherlistrane man says.
“We predominantly cater for light and heavy vehicle owners, but also for cars and van owners on a smaller scale. The business is going well. I have three good lads with me and plan to grow further in the next couple of years.
“From the very beginning, we received a lot of support from the local transport industry. Our customers range from owner-drivers and private clients to companies with large fleets. We place a strong emphasis on customer service. We will always try to accommodate our customers at a time that suits them.
“We’re easy to access, while our exceptional service is key to us retaining our existing customers and attracting new ones. Most – if not all – of our business is secured through word of mouth and recommendations from satisfied customers. It’s the best form of advertising.”
McHale Autobody & Commercial has many regular customers, including Evergreen Fields in Dunmore, Galway Express, Hazelwood Haulage Ltd (HHL) in Corrandulla, Gannon Transport in Creggs, O’Hara Logistics in Cavan, Kenny Transport in Claregalway, Luke Smith Transport in Roscommon, Leonard Group in Claregalway, Barry O'Gara Machinery Transport in Roscommon and Beirne Express Freight in Westport. Suppliers include LR Paint Supplies in Galway, John Mannion Truck & Trailer in Claregalway, Expert Truck Dismantlers in Dunmore and Mannion Parts in Oranmore.
The company is a one-stop shop for all your spray painting, crash repair and panel beating needs. Equipped with the latest technology and a highly-trained workforce, it handles work for many insurance companies and is an approved repairer. The repair centre caters for all types of panel beating jobs, from touch ups to complete cab resprays. Eoin and his team undertake quality repairs to damaged bodywork and re-paint to match existing colours or to a new colour scheme.
“We offer all vehicle spray painting, repairs and panel beating, and can achieve the highest standards when it comes to colour matching. A typical spray-painting job would involve stripping, fixing and priming, followed by painting and polishing. We repair and paint everything from panels, bumpers, panels and steps to headlights, crash bars, mud guards, tool boxes, plastics and trims.
“We’ll ensure that your vehicle leaves the workshop looking as good as new.”
The Galway spray painting and crash repair specialist prides itself on its quick turnaround times.
“Mindful that time is money, we keep our customers’ downtime to a minimum. Even though our opening hours are 8am to 5pm Monday-Saturday, we will never see anyone stuck and will accommodate our regular customers outside of business hours if needs be. We try our best to keep everyone happy and are always at the end of the phone,” continues the 30-year-old, who is clearly an old head on young shoulders.
As his company continues to grow, Eoin would like to take this opportunity to thank his customers and suppliers for their support as well as his staff for their hard work, dedication and expertise. After dealing with the McHale Autobody & Commercial team, you can drive with the peace of mind that your vehicle was repaired to the highest standards.
Here’s to the next five years and beyond!
