Typical Insurance Repair Process.
Contrary to what you may have been led to believe, your insurance company does not usually require three estimates but only one from the shop of your choice.

Your Insurance company will make some suggestions to you regarding reliable shops where you could possibly have your vehicle repaired.

1.  Notify your insurance company you want to come to us.
2.  We are set up with most major insurance companies with an online process by which they can send us an             estimate request (i.e. assignment) which contains all the details of your coverage and description of damage which we     download into an estimating program.
3. After the estimate is completed, we upload it back to them along with photos of your vehicle and stated                     damage which are reviewed by their appraisal unit.
4. The approval is given and we can go ahead and order the necessary parts, set your repair appointment and
    arrange a rental vehicle for you.
5. We keep you updated as to the repair progress of your vehicle and call you when it is ready and delivered back      to you nice and clean. You can  drop off the rental vehicle at our shop when picking up your vehicle if you        wish.

NOTE:
If we are not listed with your insurance company, you can still request they use us to repair your vehicle. They may ask you to drop off your vehicle so that they may send out a staff appraiser to see it or ask you to drop by a shop that is set up with them so they can write the estimate and then forward it to us. Or they may have their appraiser come to you. In any case, we have a lifetime warranty on repairs.
