Frequently asked questions

Straight answers before you schedule

What to expect from our mobile repair process, estimates, workspace requirements, and repair options.

What damage can you repair at my location?

We handle many cosmetic and minor-collision repairs, including dents, scratches, scrapes, paint damage, bumper damage, and selected exterior-part replacement. Send photos and we will tell you whether your vehicle is a good mobile-repair candidate.

Do you repair panels, replace parts, or both?

Both, depending on the damage. We repair metal body panels when a durable cosmetic repair is appropriate. We can also replace bolt-on exterior parts such as bumper covers, headlights, mirrors, and trim. Structural panel replacement, frame damage, airbag work, and major collision repairs generally require a traditional body shop.

Will you remove or replace my bumper?

We repair a bumper cover in place when that produces the best result. If access or damage requires removal—or the cover cannot be repaired properly—we can remove and replace it when appropriate.

Can you prepare an estimate from photos?

Usually. Send the year, make, model, city, and clear photos. If they show everything needed, we can often text a written estimate within minutes. We will ask for another photo or detail when necessary.

What photos should I send?

Send one photo showing the entire damaged side or area, one closer photo of the damage, and another angle if the depth is difficult to see.

How do you match my vehicle’s paint?

We start with the factory paint code, mix the matching formula, and adjust it when needed for age, sun exposure, and normal color variation.

Do you paint the entire bumper, fender, or door?

After repairing and priming the damage, we blend the color into the surrounding finish. We typically clear-coat the full repaired panel for consistent gloss and protection.

Do I need an empty garage?

No. Most repairs are completed in a driveway or suitable workplace parking area. We confirm the space, weather, and access requirements before scheduling.

How long does a mobile repair take?

Timing depends on the damage and repair plan. Many eligible repairs are completed in a few hours, and we provide a more specific expectation with your estimate.

Will the repair appear on a vehicle-history report?

We do not submit repairs directly to vehicle-history services. However, an insurance claim, police report, parts record, or another data source may still be reported by a third party.

Still not sure whether we can repair it?

Send a few photos. We will review the damage and explain the best next step.
