* Minor repairs such as bumpers and small dents usually take 1-2 business days; structural repairs usually take 3-7, depending on insurer approval and parts. Deductible help of up to $1,000 applies to qualifying insurance repairs. The written lifetime warranty covers body and paint work for as long as you own the vehicle.
Your right to choose the shop
California Insurance Code 758.5 says an insurer cannot require you to use a particular repair shop. It may recommend one, but it has to tell you about your right to choose and cannot reduce the claim because of your choice.
Who pays and what about the deductible
If the other driver was at fault, their insurer normally pays for the repair. If you claim on your own policy, you pay the deductible and the insurer pays the rest. On qualifying insurance repairs we help with the deductible, up to $1,000. Send photos or call and we will tell you whether your repair qualifies.
If the insurer's estimate is too low
Insurer estimates are often written from photos and miss hidden damage. After teardown we photograph what we find and send a supplement to the adjuster. The repair continues once it is approved.
Rental car and towing
We arrange a rental car through Enterprise and Hertz, with pickup or drop-off at the shop. If the car cannot be driven, call us and we help arrange a tow to the shop. Whether rental and towing are paid by the insurer depends on your policy.
Pages by insurance company
We also work with Mercury, USAA, Liberty Mutual, Nationwide, Travelers and other carriers.

I had a great experience with this body shop! They repaired my car quickly and right on schedule after my accident, and handled all the communication with the insurance company so I didn't have to stress about anything. They also provided me with a rental car - and even delivered it to me, which was incredibly convenient. I'm very happy with the service and highly recommend them to anyone!
Amazing experience from start to finish. Super professional team that really cares about the customer. They handled everything with insurance and made the whole process stress-free. The car came out looking perfect. Highly recommend.
The guys fixed and repainted the front bumper with some body touchups in almost a single day. top notch service
