General
Repair time depends on the damage. Minor repairs (dents, scratches, bumper damage) often take 1–3 days. Significant collision damage typically takes 5–10 business days. We provide a specific timeline with every written estimate and keep you updated throughout.

Absolutely. California law guarantees your right to choose your own repair shop regardless of what your insurance company recommends. You are never required to use an insurer's "preferred" shop.

Repair Process
PDR removes minor dents and dings without sanding, filling, or repainting. Technicians use specialized tools to gently push dents out from behind the panel, preserving your original factory paint. It's faster, cheaper, and more eco-friendly.
We use a computerized paint-matching system that reads your vehicle's paint code and formulates an exact match. We apply, blend, and clear-coat the repair area for a seamless finish indistinguishable from the original.
Costs vary widely based on the damage, parts required, and labor involved. Minor repairs can be a few hundred dollars; significant damage can run into thousands. We provide free, detailed written estimates so you know the cost before any work begins.
