Vehicle and repair questions from Williston Park drivers
How much does frame straightening cost?
Minor unibody pull $1,200–$2,500. Major structural repair $3,500–$8,000+. Includes computerized measurement, pull operations, and final geometry verification.
How do I know if my repair was done right?
Panel gaps even and consistent. Paint color matches under multiple lighting conditions. No overspray, no drip marks, no taped-off lines. We walk you through inspection at delivery.
Do you do ADAS calibration on Teslas?
Yes. Camera and sensor recalibration is required after windshield, bumper, or quarter-panel work on Tesla vehicles. We follow OEM procedures or sublet to a Tesla-certified calibration shop for warranty lock.
Do you do classic car restoration?
Yes — body and paint restoration on classics, including metal fabrication for rust-out areas. We don't do mechanical or interior restoration.
Do you do pre-purchase inspections?
Yes — body and paint inspection, frame check, and prior-repair detection. We can flag previously-repaired panels, hidden frame damage, and quality of past work.
What is a diminished value claim?
Diminished value is the loss in your car's resale value because of repair history, even after a perfect repair. It can be claimed against the at-fault party's insurance in NY.
How long does frame work take?
Frame measurement and minor pull is a same-day procedure. Major structural repair with panel work runs 1–3 weeks.
