We make every effort to write a precise estimate the first time; this sometimes requires minor disassembly of damaged areas and a bit more time. An accurate estimate helps us and the insurance company ensure a smooth flow of the repair process. As an established collision facility, we'll work with your insurance company to arrive at a fair price to perform quality repairs that we can proudly stamp with our lifetime guarantee.
The frame or unibody of your vehicle is comparable to the foundation of your home. It must be strong and precise before anything can be built or repaired around it. Metal repair and replacement is an extremely critical phase. We strive to use original replacement parts unless otherwise outlined in your insurance policy and factory approved repair procedures. All necessary corrosion protection procedures are used to meet or exceed factory corrosion warranties.
