Panel & dent repair
Damage that stops at the panel, with the structure underneath untouched. You get a straight answer on how long it will take before you commit, and you hear from us while the work is happening rather than after it is finished.
Most of what comes through the shop isn't structural. A parking-lot hit, a deer, a slid-into curb, a door someone opened into your fender. The panel is damaged, the frame underneath is fine, and the job is to make the outside right again.
Where a panel can be repaired rather than replaced, we will tell you so, and where replacement is the honest answer we will tell you that too. When options exist on parts, you get them (new, aftermarket or recycled), along with what each one means for cost and for how the finish will match.
You get our best estimate on the time frame at the start, and you hear from us as the work moves rather than having to call and ask where your car is.
Other services
- Paint & refinishingDowndraft booths pull airborne dust away from the panel while the paint is still wet, so nothing settles into the finish as it flashes off. Color is mixed to your vehicle's own paint code and blended into the panels either side of the repair.
- Collision & structural repairFrame and unibody work starts with measurement. The vehicle is checked against its factory dimensions before anything is straightened.
- Auto glass installationGlass is part of most collision repairs and we install it here rather than sending your vehicle out. We also handle glass on its own when that is all a vehicle needs.
A question we get
Do you repair a damaged panel or replace it?
Whichever is the honest answer. If a panel can be repaired we will tell you. If replacement is the better repair we will tell you that, and if there is a choice on parts (new, aftermarket or recycled) you get the options and what each one means for cost and match.
