Owner, Paul Hassall, started in the industry 24 years ago as an automotive paint mixer. He then moved into the body shops of 2 large GM dealerships learning auto body repair and painting. After 15 years as a heavy collision tech and painter. Paul spent his last couple years as shop manager handling the customers and estimates, insurance companies, and purchasing.
Looking for something more and hoping to go on his own, Paul left the dealership world to be a custom fabricator and painter for a while. Due to family and bills that came along with it, he moved onto the insurance side of the business in 2000 as a licensed appraiser and field network rep for a large auto insurance company. With his prior management experience, Paul soon moved up to lead the field training of newly hired appraisers and manage the company's direct repair program for this area. Hoping to go on his own once more, in August 2002 Paul helped start and manage the second shop of Dubble's Collision Center here in Bechtelsville, PA.
Finally...after two and a half years running Dubble's Collision, Paul bought the business to begin Excel Collision Repair & Paint Specialists, Inc. Since opening here in August 2002, we've built a large customer base by always turning out quality work on time with unmatched customer service and satisfaction.
