The Auto Body Repair Process

The Insurance Estimate

Are you unaware that your insurance company likely requires only one estimate, not two or three or even more? It's true. Although myth has it that three estimates are the minimum before the insurance company will evaluate your claim, these days only one is needed. We encourage you to come by for your one-stop free estimate. In fact, if you'd like, we will assist you in filing your claim, as our connections with the local insurance agencies are strong. We can even, if you like, handle the whole deal from start to finish. We seek to help you in every way we can. Insurance claims can be a bother to process, and occasionally it is a little hard to get the claim agreed upon. Allow us to provide you with expert assistance in filing your claim.

Professional General Repair

The majority of insurance claims are for general repair. Here at Excalibur we are completely prepared to handle all your general repair needs, including minor hood or door scrapes, plastic molding cracks, weakened seals, and small accessory replacements, such as mirrors, door handles, locks, and wind deflectors. We do our utmost to get your vehicle done quickly as we apply our high standards of quality to each vehicle.

Professional Unibody Repair

Our team specializes in unibody repair, using our new Car-O-Liner unibody and frame bench rack. Your car's unibody is the basic frame of the vehicle. It makes certain that everything is properly aligned and positioned for the smooth, fluid driving experience that the modern car or truck provides. We do our best to restore the frame or unibody to what it was before the accident, and if possible even to factory specifications. Whether we replace portions of the frame, or torque the metal back into proper shape with our frame bench rack, when we're done, your car should feel and look just like it did before the accident, if not better.

Professional Paint Jobs

Professional auto body painting is truly an art form. Whether it is a minor scrape on a door panel or matching a replacement part to the actual vehicle color, our painters will make it blend perfectly with the original body paint. Our computer-controlled paint mixing room allows us to match, from the multiple possible color combinations, your auto's precise body color, which is something rather hard to do, since every year paints change slightly. Where your vehicle was manufactured is also part of the equation, since different factories often have slightly different pigments in their stock and custom paints. We use only the highest quality paints: PPG Global and Envirobase®. (Read More about the new water-based and environmentally friendly Envirobase paint, as well as our other carefully chosen equipment.) A new maximum size paint booth by Nova Verta, climate controlled to get the best paint job possible, gives us an edge on repainting and touchup.

Your Final Product

After finishing, polishing, and washing down your vehicle, it will be as clean as we can get it, and the repaired area will look as if it just came out of the factory again. You'll be called when it is done, and when you get back in your vehicle, it will look and feel like that unfortunate accident never even happened. We pride ourselves on offering a lifetime warranty for our work on your vehicle. So not only will you drive away with the accident fading fast from your memory, but you will rest assured that if anything does go wrong with the repair, you can come to us to have the problem honestly and immediately dealt with.
