The work

About our collision repair

You come to us after a collision, facing a damaged vehicle that may not be safe to drive. Whether it's a minor parking-lot bump or a more serious crash, we understand the stress. Our job is to restore your car to its pre-accident condition, addressing both visible dents and hidden structural issues that could affect safety.

We begin with a full disassembly of the damaged area to inspect for hidden bends. Using a computerized measuring system, we check the frame against factory specs. Panels are pulled with a hydraulic frame machine, then welded or replaced. We use OEM-spec adhesives and seam sealers, and finish with multi-stage primer and paint that matches your car's original finish.

The complexity of a repair depends on the impact location, the number of panels involved, and whether the frame is twisted. Older vehicles may have rust that complicates welding, while modern cars with aluminum or high-strength steel require different tools and techniques. Parts availability and the need for structural pulling also affect the timeline and cost.

On the day of drop-off, we walk through the damage with you and document everything. There's no prep needed from you, just remove personal items. During repairs, we cover unaffected areas to protect them from dust and overspray. Once finished, we clean the vehicle inside and out, and you inspect the work before driving away.

Computerized Frame Measuring

We use a laser-based measuring system to compare your vehicle's frame dimensions to factory specs, ensuring structural alignment is within tolerance.

Multi-Layer Paint Matching

Today's finishes have basecoat, metallic flakes, and clearcoat. We blend into adjacent panels so the repair is invisible under any light.

How the job runs

Our 4-step collision repair process

01

Damage Assessment

We disassemble the damaged area and inspect for hidden structural damage using a computerized measuring system. All findings are documented.

Structural Straightening

Using a hydraulic frame rack, we pull and realign the frame and panels to factory specifications. Damaged parts are removed and replaced.

Bodywork & Prep

We apply filler to small dents, block-sand the surface smooth, and prime the area. Adjacent panels are masked off to prevent overspray.

Paint & Finish

We spray multiple coats of color-matched paint and clearcoat, then bake the finish. After curing, we wet-sand and buff for a seamless blend.
