Local questions from Kingsbridge drivers
How much does collision repair cost?
Minor jobs $800–$2,500. Mid-sized $2,500–$8,000. Major structural $8,000–$25,000+. We give a written, itemized estimate before any work begins.
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.
