Frequently Asked Questions About Collision Repair Work
- Are you open on Saturdays?
We are open by appointment only.
- Do I need to make an appointment for an estimate?
Nope. We are open Monday through Friday, 8:00 am - 5:00 pm for your convenience.
- Do I have to get multiple estimates for my insurance company?
No. Nevada state law states that you are only required to obtain one estimate. We will negotiate on your behalf with your insurance company to ensure a fair and proper repair to your vehicle.
- Will you have the parts before I drop off my vehicle for repairs?
In most cases, we will. Depending on the damage to your vehicle, we strive to make the repair process as quick as possible by ordering parts well in advance. If we deem your vehicle unsafe to drive we will also gladly call you a rental car.
- How can I get a rental car?
We can help make the necessary arrangements for you. You may or may not have rental car coverage depending on your insurance policy.
If you are a claimant, the insurance company should provide you with a rental car free of cost. If you do not have rental car coverage, we will work with the local rental car companies to get you the most affordable rates possible.
- If the frame of my vehicle is damaged, is it a total loss?
No. According to the Nevada Revises Statutes, a total loss is any vehicle which has been wrecked to such an extent that the cost of repair, not including any cost associated with painting any portion of the vehicle, is 65% or more of the fair market value of the vehicle immediately before it was wrecked, destroyed or otherwise damaged.
