24/7 accident line & towing
Had an accident? Make one call: we tow the car free, handle the insurance claim and repair it with OEM parts and factory-matched paint.
Right after the accident
Three steps. We take over from the third one.
Step 1Get everyone to a safe spot first. If there are injuries, emergency services come before anything else.
Step 2All vehicles, the damage, the road and license plates. Swap insurance details with the other driver.
Step 3We dispatch a flatbed, free for collision clients, and start your insurance claim from the scene.
Auto body shop
From a scraped bumper to structural damage at 794 Merchant St. Free inspection and written estimate, every insurer accepted, lifetime warranty on collision repairs.

Cracked or torn covers repaired or replaced, refinished in factory color, sensors realigned.

Paintless dent repair when the paint is intact, body work and refinishing when it is not.

Spectrophotometer color matching and blending so the repair disappears.

Measured against factory specs and pulled back on a frame machine.

Aluminum panels and high-voltage safety, done to the maker's procedures.

Free for collision clients
The last thing you need after an accident is to find a tow company. We send our own flatbed, typically 30–45 minutes, anywhere in Los Angeles.

From the moment of impact to the day you pick the car up: body repair, insurance, towing, rental and legal support.
Dent removal, panel replacement and body alignment: bumper, fender, hood, door and quarter panel.

Call right after the accident. We check you are safe, guide you at the scene and send the tow.
Your car comes straight to our shop, not a storage yard.
Every area of damage photographed, a written estimate and the paperwork for your insurer.
We file the claim, meet the adjuster and negotiate supplements for hidden damage.

Insurance claims
Bring the car to us and we take it from there, turnkey: the paperwork, the phone calls, the adjuster and the repair. Your insurer cannot make you use its own network shop instead.



Didn’t find your question? Call us, a real person answers. 24/7 accident line & towing.
Call (213) 282-8201Most collision repairs are completed in 3–7 business days. Minor fender repairs and bumper replacements take 1–3 days. Moderate structural damage requiring frame straightening typically takes 5–10 days. We provide a precise written timeline on your estimate — and we stick to it. Large-scale restorations can take 2–3 weeks. We'll keep you updated every step of the way.
Yes. Your insurer cannot force you to use a specific facility in California, so the repair is done here and billed to them. We work directly with all major carriers including State Farm, Allstate, GEICO, Progressive, Farmers, and AAA. We handle the paperwork, supplements, and negotiations so you don't have to.
California law does not require multiple estimates. Your insurance company may suggest you do, but you are not obligated. We provide a comprehensive, transparent estimate and can communicate directly with your adjuster. If a supplement is needed during repair (hidden damage found), we handle that communication automatically.
Yes — we use computerized paint-mixing systems with spectrophotometer color-matching technology to replicate your vehicle's exact factory color, including metallic and pearl finishes. We blend into adjacent panels to ensure a seamless, invisible repair. Our paint matches are backed by a lifetime warranty on paint defects.
A properly repaired vehicle using OEM or OEM-equivalent parts, factory color-match paint, and certified structural repairs should not significantly affect resale value. We provide written documentation of all repairs. We also handle diminished value claims on your behalf — in many cases you can recover compensation from the at-fault driver's insurance for residual value loss.
Yes — we provide a lifetime warranty on all collision repairs for as long as you own the vehicle. This covers structural integrity, panel alignment, paint adhesion, and color match. If any covered defect appears, we fix it at no charge. Our warranty transfers to immediate family members in the same household.
Yes. If your policy includes rental coverage, we coordinate rental pickup directly from our shop — so you're never left without transportation. If the accident was the other driver's fault, their liability insurance typically covers your rental at no out-of-pocket cost to you. We help you navigate both scenarios.
1. Check for injuries and call 911 if needed. 2. Move to safety and turn on hazard lights. 3. Document the scene: photos, other driver's insurance, license plate. 4. Call us — we offer free towing from the scene to our shop for collision repair clients. 5. Notify your insurer. 6. Do not admit fault. 7. Bring your vehicle to us for a free damage assessment.
