One rep, start to finish

Closed right now, leave a message
Family owned collision repair and restoration in Ottawa. One service rep works your claim, books your rental, picks you up, and sends you photos as the work moves, so the worst part of your week takes one phone call instead of ten.
Takes about a minute. Add photos on the next step.
Why people drive past other shops
Any decent shop can straighten a fender. What wears people out is the insurance company, the rental car, and never knowing where the car is. That is the part we built this shop around.
A named service rep owns your repair. They book the rental, pick you up wherever you are, and answer the phone when you call back.
Not a manager who deals with adjusters sometimes, but a licensed insurance producer on staff who works the claim with you.
Progress photos go to you and your adjuster while the repair moves, so nobody has to guess where the car is.
Bring a written estimate from another shop. We go through it line by line and show you where it can come down.
What happens next
These steps run in order, every time. If you ever want to know which one your car is on, call and ask for your rep by name.
STEP 01
Bring the car in, or send photos from your phone. We write a free estimate and walk you through it in plain language: what has to be replaced, what can be repaired, and what it will cost.
STEP 02
Our licensed insurance producer files and works the claim with your carrier in-house. If your insurer wants a supplement, we handle that conversation, not you.
STEP 03
Your service rep arranges the rental and picks you up wherever you are: home, work, or the tow yard.
STEP 04
Structural, panel, and paint work, with the color sprayed in a sealed booth. We send progress photos to you and your adjuster as it moves.
STEP 05
A straight-line reflection across every repaired panel before it leaves the booth. If the line waves, the panel goes back.
STEP 06
You get the car back washed and vacuumed, with the repair explained and the paperwork closed out.
What we repair
From a tapped bumper to a heavy hit. We repair what can be repaired and replace what has to be, and we show you which is which before we start.
Color matched to your vehicle, sprayed in a sealed booth, then cut and polished so the repair does not stand out from the panel beside it.
Door dings, hail damage, and creases massaged out from behind the panel. The factory paint stays on the car, which keeps the value on the car.
Before and after
Anyone can say the work is good. Drag the handle and judge it yourself: the reflection line across a finished panel should run as straight as it did the day the car left the factory.
