Testimonials
What our
customers say
4.9 / 5·Based on 500+ customer reviews
Someone backed into my car in a parking lot and I had never filed a claim before. Angie walked me through the whole thing and dealt with the adjuster directly. I dropped the car off and picked it up looking brand new.
The colour match on my truck is genuinely perfect. It is a ten-year-old metallic silver and I cannot find the line where the new paint starts. Fair price and they finished two days early.
Hail took out the whole roof and hood. They did paintless dent repair so the factory paint stayed on the car, which saved my resale value and a chunk of my deductible. Aaron explained every option instead of just upselling.
Big shops treated me like a claim number. Here I talked to the actual owner both times I called. They found extra damage behind the bumper, sent a supplement to my insurance, and it did not cost me a cent more.

Good to know
Questions we
hear a lot
Straight answers about claims, timelines and what you are actually entitled to.
Just had an accident? Read our step-by-step checklist before you talk to anyone else.
Do I have to use the shop my insurance company recommends?
No. In Minnesota you have the right to choose who repairs your vehicle. Your insurer can recommend a shop, but the decision is yours, and choosing us does not change your coverage or your deductible.
How much does an estimate cost?
Nothing. Estimates are free and there is no obligation to book the repair with us. You can walk in during business hours or send photos through the form on this site.
How long will my repair take?
A bumper scuff can be same-day. A structural repair with parts on order can run one to two weeks. We give you a realistic date when you drop the vehicle off and we call you if anything changes — you should never have to chase us for an update.
Will you work with my insurance company?
Yes, we work with all major carriers. We write the estimate, submit it, negotiate supplements if hidden damage turns up once the panels come off, and bill your insurer directly where possible.
What if you find more damage after the teardown?
That is very common — a lot of collision damage hides behind the bumper cover or inside the structure. We document it, photograph it, and submit a supplement to your insurer. We do not start extra work without approval.
Do you guarantee your work?
We stand behind our workmanship for as long as you own the vehicle, and our paint carries a lifetime warranty against defects in materials and application. Normal wear, rust from new damage, and other shops’ repairs are not covered.
