Bay 01

Collision Repair

From a fender-bender to a heavy hit, we bring the whole vehicle back to pre-accident condition — structure, panels, safety systems and finish. Four decades of hands-on collision work in Chelsea means very little rolls in that we haven't already put right.

  • Total collision repair, minor to severe
  • Unibody & full-frame vehicles
  • Factory-style fit and panel gaps
  • Safety systems restored to spec

Bay 02

Paint & Refinish

Our computerized paint matching reads your vehicle's exact factory formula, then blends the refinish into surrounding panels so the repair disappears. Booth-baked for a hard, even, showroom-grade shine that holds up to New England weather.

  • Computerized paint matching
  • Blended into adjacent panels
  • Baked, dust-free booth finish
  • Clear-coat & detail buff-out

Bay 03

Frame & Structural

A car that's even slightly out of square never drives right and never wears its tires evenly again. We straighten frames and structural rails back to factory tolerances, then re-measure to confirm the vehicle is true before it moves down the line.

  • Frame & rail straightening
  • Return to factory tolerances
  • Re-measured & verified square
  • Suspension geometry restored

Bay 04

Dent & Body Work

Door dings, hail dents, creased quarter panels and rust repair — the everyday body work that keeps a car looking cared for. When a panel is too far gone, we replace it and refinish it so the seam is invisible.

  • Dent & ding removal
  • Panel repair or replacement
  • Bumper & trim refinishing
  • Rust cut-out & treatment

You choose your shop — not the insurance company. We work directly with all major insurers, document the damage, and communicate through the claim so you're not stuck playing middleman. Bring us the claim number and we'll take it from there.

  • Works with all major insurers
  • Damage documented for the adjuster
  • Direct insurer communication
  • You keep the right to choose us

The repair timeline, scrubbed

Slide the marker — or step through — to follow your car from the moment it's dropped off to the day you drive it home.

  1. 1
    Step 01 / 07

    Drop-off & intake

    You drop the vehicle at 481 Eastern Ave. We log the damage, get your claim details, and give you a straight read on what we're looking at.

  2. 2
    Step 02 / 07

    Estimate & teardown

    We write a detailed estimate and disassemble the affected area so hidden damage is found now, not halfway through the job.

  3. 3
    Step 03 / 07

    Insurance approval

    We submit documentation to your insurer, handle supplements for anything uncovered in teardown, and get the repair authorized.

  4. 4
    Step 04 / 07

    Structural & frame

    If the frame or structure moved, we straighten it back to factory tolerances and re-measure before any new panels go on.

  5. 5
    Step 05 / 07

    Body, paint & match

    Panels are repaired or replaced, then refinished with computerized color matching and baked in the booth for a factory-grade shine.

  6. 6
    Step 06 / 07

    Reassembly & QC

    Everything goes back together, systems are checked, and the vehicle is cleaned and inspected against our quality checklist.

  7. 7
    Step 07 / 07

    Pickup or delivery

    You pick it up — or we deliver it — restored and backed by our lifetime workmanship warranty. Keys back, done right.
