Insurance questions from Morris Park drivers
Can you match my car's paint color?
Yes — we use spectrophotometer color matching from your actual paint, not just the paint code. Single panel blends or full repaints.
Can you do PDR on aluminum panels?
Yes — Tesla, Audi, Range Rover, BMW, and Ford F-150 aluminum panels need specialized PDR tools and longer working time. We're set up for it.
Do I have to accept the first total-loss offer?
No. Carriers' first offers are often low. You can document recent comparable sales to negotiate up. We've helped customers add 15–25% to a low first offer.
Do you tow vehicles to your shop?
Yes — we coordinate towing if your vehicle isn't drivable. Towing is usually billed through your insurance roadside coverage or as part of the claim.
What is a deductible?
Your deductible is the amount you pay out-of-pocket on a claim before insurance pays. Typical deductibles run $250–$1,500.
How much does paintless dent repair cost?
Single door ding $75–$200. Larger dents $200–$500. Multiple dents $300–$800. Full-vehicle hail damage is typically covered by comprehensive insurance.
What does the disassembly process look like?
Damaged panels come off, photos are taken at every stage, hidden damage is documented for the supplement, and a final repair plan is built before parts are ordered. Customers see photos throughout.
