Frequently asked questions

Don't see your question? Send photos and we'll cover it in the response.

Can I really get an estimate from photos?
Yes — for most damage, photos give us enough to send you a preliminary range. For complex damage or hidden structural issues, we may ask for additional photos or invite you in for a quick in-person look.
Is the estimate final?
No. Photo-based estimates are preliminary and can change after in-person inspection. Hidden damage, supplemental parts, or work discovered during repair can affect the final price. We always communicate before doing work that changes the estimate.
Do you work with insurance?
Yes. We work with major insurance companies and can help you understand your estimate, deductible, and coverage. If you have a claim number, include it on the form so we can coordinate.
How long does it take to get a response?
We respond within one business day. Most customers hear back the same day if photos are submitted before noon.
What photos should I upload?
Front, rear, and both side views of the car, plus close-ups of every damaged area. If a wheel was hit, include a photo of it. The form will guide you through the recommended shots.
Can you repair severe collision damage?
We handle most collision and cosmetic repairs in-house. For severely totaled vehicles, we will tell you up front if a repair is not the most economical option.
Do I need to bring the car in for the estimate?
Not for the preliminary estimate — photos are usually enough. We schedule an in-person inspection only when needed, or before the actual repair.
What areas do you serve?
We serve Dallas and the surrounding DFW metroplex, including Garland, Mesquite, Irving, Richardson, Plano, Carrollton, Arlington, Grand Prairie, Farmers Branch, Addison, University Park, and Highland Park. Not on this list? Send photos anyway and we will let you know.
Do you work by appointment only?
Yes. Submit photos online first; if you want to come in, we will schedule a time. This keeps the shop focused and the work consistent.
What if my car is not drivable?
Indicate that on the form. We can help guide you on towing options and the fastest path to a repair plan.
Do you offer service in Spanish?
Yes — we are a bilingual shop. You can submit your form, message us on WhatsApp, or call in either English or Spanish.
