• Auto Body Repair: Whether you’ve had a fender bender or minor accident, we use original manufacturer parts and products, certified technicians, and high-tech full frame repair equipment to provide you with a quality repair that lasts.
• Glass Repair: Need a new windshield? No problem! Have a bit of hail damage? We can fix that too! Our glass repair specialists seal nicks, chips and cracks before they worsen and restore the structural integrity of your window. We offer full replacements when necessary or preferred.
• Wheel Repair: When a brand new set of tires is not an option, we offer wheel refinishing and remanufacturing to heal varying levels of damage in a safe manner.
• Detail Work: Since you are bringing your vehicle in for repairs anyway, you may want to consider some of the custom upgrades we offer. Pinstriping, window tints, UV light protection, and protective urethane coatings are a few of the options to make your car even more attractive and resilient to damage.

Naturally, we would like your business, but in rare instances, there are certain repairs that may not be feasible. And it is our mission to make sure you know what our limitations are as well as the limitations of our competitors. If we think your vehicle is beyond repair, we will tell you. If we think your damage will be better served elsewhere, we will also tell you. Full disclosure and honesty is our policy.

We will communicate with you every step of the way. If a total loss insurance write-off makes more sense for your situation, we will let you know immediately, so you can begin shopping for a new vehicle.

What’s included in a full collision repair, beyond just paint? A complete collision repair can include auto body repair with OEM parts and full-frame equipment, paint matching and refinishing, glass repair or replacement, wheel refinishing, and structural work to restore the vehicle to pre-accident condition.

How do I know if my car should be repaired or declared a total loss? A reputable shop will assess whether repair costs and structural damage make sense relative to the vehicle’s value, and tell you directly if a total-loss insurance write-off is the better outcome — rather than repairing a vehicle that isn’t safe or cost-effective to fix.

What should I look for in a trustworthy Tempe collision repair shop? Look for I-CAR Gold Class certification, manufacturer-recognized trusted repair facility status, use of OEM parts, independence from insurance company incentives, and a satisfaction guarantee — all of which affect whether the repair is done to manufacturer standard rather than the cheapest available standard.

Can a body shop fix minor paint damage like stone chips and scrapes without a full repaint? Yes, in many cases. A shop with in-house paint-matching capability can repair small imperfections such as stone chips, dings, and dents to a specific panel without needing to repaint the entire vehicle.
