What Schade Herstel Midden Nederland does

Schade Herstel Midden Nederland (legal entity Autoschade Herstel Midden Nederland BV) is a Dutch vehicle damage repair company headquartered in Veenendaal, Utrecht. Founded in 2014 by Pierre Methorst — who has been in the auto body repair trade since 1987 — the company operates from a 3,000-4,000 m² facility with 12-meter ceiling height, 13 lifting bridges, three spray booths for cars/vans/trucks, and a dedicated upper-floor booth for campers and caravans. It runs four operating labels: Autoschade Herstel Midden Nederland (passenger cars), Bedrijfswagens Schade Herstel (commercial vans), Truckschade Herstel Midden Nederland (trucks), and Caravan & Camper Schade Herstel Midden Nederland | Velbo (the caravan/camper business acquired from Velbo Schade Herstel in December 2019).

The service portfolio spans comprehensive damage repair (painting, dent removal, glass replacement, bumper repair, hail damage, spot repair, paintless dent repair), advanced diagnostics (Hunter HawkEye Elite 3D wheel alignment, ADAS calibration, Konfort 780 Bi-Gas AC servicing), and specialized caravan/camper services including TNO-tested Profile Repair wall repair, 33-point moisture measurement, OMNIA CCS TUV-certified hail-resistant GRP roof panels, and BOVAG-certified maintenance. The company holds FOCWA certification offering a 7-year warranty on repair work, plus Schadegarant, Glasgarant, and BOVAG memberships.

Commercially, the company operates as a direct-to-consumer service business, supplemented by referral partnerships with major Dutch insurers (Achmea brands Interpolis/FBTO/Avero/Centraal Beheer, Univé) and lease operators (Athlon, LeasePlan, Arval, PureLease, Assuradeurengilde). Customers obtain free non-binding quotes via website, phone, or walk-in; pricing is per-job with no public list. The company offers free replacement vehicles during repair and after-hours service for commercial clients, supported by an in-house team of 18-20 professionals. The company is founder-owned with no external equity funding.
