Process questions from Corona customers
Do you charge for an estimate?
No. Walk-in or send photos for a free written estimate with no obligation.
Will paintless dent repair work on my car?
Most likely yes if the paint isn't broken and the dent isn't on a sharp body line. We give honest assessment before starting.
What's the difference between repair and replace for a bumper?
Plastic bumper cracks and scratches usually repair. Shattered bumpers or those with broken mounting tabs need replacement. We give you both estimates so you can decide.
Can a bent frame be straightened?
Most yes. Severe bends or torn structural members may require partial replacement. Computerized measurement tells us exactly what the geometry needs and we pull to OEM tolerances.
Do I have to use the body shop my insurance recommends?
No. Under New York Insurance Law §2610, you have the right to choose any licensed body shop. Your insurer cannot require you to use a specific shop.
Do you do third-party liability work?
Yes. If you're not at fault, the at-fault driver's carrier pays — sometimes including your rental, deductible reimbursement, and diminished value.
Do you offer a warranty on body shop work?
Yes — lifetime workmanship warranty against paint failure, peeling, and repair workmanship defects for as long as you own the vehicle.
