The Insurance Companies will try to 'Steer You' by using these common phrases;
They are not one of our network shops.
They are not on our list.
We can't guarantee the repairs if you go there.
Claims take longer to settle if you use them.
Our reply to this is, "We are not on everybodies list because we do not want to be. We identify the vehicle owner as our primary customer, not the insurance company. As for guaranteeing our work, they do not need to, as we have our own lifetime guarantee.
When have you ever seen an insurance company with a car being repaired in their office?"
You have the right to choose the facility where you have your vehicle repaired.
No matter what kind of damage it is, it is against the law for the insurance company to tell you where you have to go to get your repairs done.
Here at The Dent Shop your insurance claims are welcome - Come in & let us take the digital pictures necessary, we can email them to your insurance company & handle all those details for you, making the whole process a lot less stressful for you, Our Customer. Isn't that what it should be about?
We are a local company, all our work is guaranteed & estimates are always FREE.
At The Dent Shop, we specialize in Paint Free Dent Repair, removing Hail Damage and small dents and dings that have not damaged the factory paint of your vehicle but yet we also offer all the same services of a complete Auto Body/Collision Repair facility.
Got Hail?
There's nothing pleasant about having your vehicle damaged in a hailstorm. Your first move should be to contact your insurance company to start the claims process. Many people are hesitant to file a claim for fear of their insurance premiums being raised but hail damage is covered under your comprehensive coverage & is considered an act of nature. Filing a hail claim will never cause your premiums to go up, regardless of what anyone tells you.
All major insurance companies now endorse paintless dent repair for hail damage, unless the damage is too severe. Using paintless dent repair allows you to retain your vehicles factory finish. There is nothing that reduces the value of your vehicle more that having to repaint the factory finish.
When your insurance company inspects your vehicles hail damage, most often they will give you a list of body shops they recommend you to go to for your repairs. These shops have agreements with the insurance companies commonly called, Direct Repair Programs. These shops depend on the insurance companies directing work to them & usually agree to give the insurance companies discounts on parts/labor. Some may be good shops but the bottom line is they are under presssure to keep costs down to remain in good standing with the insurance companies they are aligned with, ultimately it is your choice,
not the insurance companies,
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE
who does the work for you.
The Dent Shop is not involved with any Direct Repair Program.
