TORONTO, ON -- July 22, 2008 -- Collision Solutions Network (CSN) has announced an expansion to its Ontario operation with three new facilities joining the network.
Precision Auto Refinishing ~ CSN, Uxbridge, ON. Owner Brian Cavill has been in business since 1984. This 7500 sq. ft. facility employs 11 people trained and equipped with the latest in technology through I-CAR and WHMIS. Precision Auto Refinishing is highly regarded by the insurance industry and also enjoys many dealer affiliations in the Uxbridge area. Precision Auto Refinishing is also the winner of the local paper's Reader’s Choice Award.
“I was attracted by the group of people within CSN who support the industry and want to move it forward. I always wanted to become more industry involved within a group, yet I also wanted to maintain my individuality. CSN best suited my business needs and I’m excited to be a part of the network,” says Cavill.
Blue Mountain Collision ~ CSN, Clarksburg,ON. Founded in 1977, Albert Hutten purchased this 4000 sq. ft. facility in 2004 and has steadily increased its sales since.

They are trained in I-CAR, WHMIS and First Aid. As well, they have several Akzo Nobel paint and management courses to further benefit their customers and staff.
Hutten prides himself in community involvement, sponsoring a number of local sporting teams and his participation in the Akzo Nobel Benevolence Program. Blue Mountain Collision is also an avid supporter of the Meaford General Hospital Program.
“It’s wonderful to be able to interact within a group of highly regarded collision repairers. I look forward to learning from and contributing to the network,” says Hutten Lakeshore Auto Body, Port Hope, ON.
Lakeshore Auto Body ~ CSN has the proud distinction of being a family-owned and operated auto body repair business and has been serving the Northumberland County and surrounding areas for over 25 years. Steady growth over time - 4 expansions in the last 15 years - has positioned Lakeshore Auto Body as a true leader within the auto collision and auto body repair industry.
Lakeshore Auto Body is owned and operated by George See, who opened the 12,000 sq. ft. facility in 1979. Strongly recognized by insurance partners, Lakeshore Auto Body has a number of DRP relationships as well as dealer affiliations. See ensures his staff of 12 is fully trained to serve their customers through I-CAR training and WHMIS.

I am looking forward to working closely with CSN to improve the collision repair industry and standards as well as interacting with existing members,” says See.
“We felt it was necessary to expand our network in Ontario to better serve our insurance partners. We want controlled growth and place our members through a qualification process before membership is granted," says Larry French, director of operations for Collision Solutions Network. “Precision Auto Refinishing, Blue Mountain Collision and Lakeshore Auto Body exemplify the same core beliefs as the rest of the network; a proactive focus on customer service and technology. We welcome them to the network and know they will represent us well in their respective communities.”
