Your repair experience

We work with all insurance companies. Under Michigan law, you choose your repair shop, not your insurer.

Insurance made simple

Your claim in 4 simple steps

Start with a photo ballpark, then bring the car in. After our in-person inspection we write the estimate and work with your adjuster. If hidden damage turns up during teardown, we document it and contact you before doing extra work.

Not at fault and no collision coverage?
Michigan's "mini-tort" law may let you recover some of your out-of-pocket repair costs, up to the legal limit, from the at-fault driver's insurance company. Ask us and we'll explain the paperwork.
Can I choose my own body shop?
Yes. Under Michigan law, the choice of repair shop is yours. Your insurer may suggest a shop, but you don't have to use it.
Is the photo price my final price?
No. Photos get you one quick ballpark price ("Estimated starting at $…"), not an itemized estimate. Your final price comes after an in-person look, because hidden damage often shows up only once we inspect the car.
What does your warranty cover?
We back the work we perform with a lifetime warranty. Ask us for the details on your repair.
How do I pay?
Cash, credit/debit cards or Zelle. On insurance jobs, you pay only your deductible, if one applies.
