How Do I Get An Estimate?
You can stop by our Little Canada location for a professional on-site inspection. While photos can provide a "ballpark" idea, a physical inspection allows us to identify hidden structural damage and sensor issues, ensuring your initial estimate is as accurate as possible.
Will My Car Look Like It Did Before The Accident?
Absolutely. We use computerized color-matching technology to scan your vehicle's specific paint and account for any aging. Combined with our factory-spec frame alignment, we ensure your car leaves our shop looking and driving exactly as it did before the incident
Why Does My Windshield Replacement Require "Recalibration"?
Modern vehicles are equipped with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), such as lane-keep assist and emergency braking. These sensors are often housed behind the windshield. After a glass replacement, we recalibrate these systems to ensure they "see" the road accurately and keep you safe.
Do You Offer A Warranty On Your Work?
The cost of repairs depends on a variety of factors, including the extent of the damage, the parts and materials needed, and the labor required to complete the repairs. We always provide our customers with transparent pricing information.
What Should I Bring When I Drop Off My Car?
To make the intake process as smooth as possible, please bring your Insurance Claim Number, your driver’s license, and a copy of any paperwork provided by your insurance adjuster.
