Complete paint jobs start at $2,800 and can range up to $5,500 depending on vehicle size, paint quality, preparation needed, and finish complexity. Factors that affect pricing include the current condition of your vehicle's paint, bodywork requirements, and your choice of paint system.

Absolutely! We work with all major insurance companies and can handle the entire claims process for you. We provide detailed estimates that insurance adjusters accept and can work directly with your insurance company to streamline the repair process.
Our collision repair paint services start at $850 and include perfect color matching, seamless blending, and coordination with any necessary bodywork. We understand insurance requirements and ensure all work meets industry standards.
The timeline depends on the type of work being performed. Touch-up services can often be completed same-day, while complete paint jobs typically take 5-10 business days. Custom design work takes 3-7 days, and classic restorations can take 2-6 weeks depending on complexity.
We provide realistic timelines upfront and keep you updated throughout the process. Quality work takes time, and we never rush a job to meet an unrealistic deadline.
Proper preparation is crucial for a lasting finish. Our process includes thorough cleaning, removal of trim and components, comprehensive sanding, body filler application where needed, and precision masking. This preparation phase often takes as long as the actual painting.
We also perform detailed surface inspection to identify any issues that need addressing before paint application. This meticulous preparation is what sets professional results apart from amateur work.
Yes, we use advanced computerized color matching technology to achieve precise color matches. We can work with paint codes, existing paint samples, or even analyze faded paint to determine the original color and create a perfect match.
For older vehicles where paint may have faded or original codes aren't available, our experienced technicians can custom mix colors to achieve seamless blending with existing paint.
For the first 30 days, avoid washing your vehicle or applying any products to allow the paint to fully cure. After this period, use only pH-neutral car washing products and avoid abrasive cleaners. Hand washing is preferred over automatic car washes.
We recommend regular waxing every 3-4 months and parking in shaded areas when possible to protect against UV damage. We'll provide detailed care instructions when you pick up your vehicle.
Yes, we stand behind our work with comprehensive warranties that vary by service type. Complete paint jobs include warranty coverage against defects in materials and workmanship. Touch-up services and collision repairs also include appropriate warranty protection.
Warranty terms and coverage details are provided with your service agreement. We believe in the quality of our work and want you to have complete confidence in your investment.
Single-stage paint combines color and clear coat in one application, while multi-stage systems apply color coat and clear coat separately. Multi-stage systems provide superior durability, depth, and gloss, and are what we primarily use for complete paint jobs.
Multi-stage systems also allow for better color matching and easier future repairs. While more expensive, they provide significantly longer-lasting results and better protection against environmental damage.
Yes, please remove all personal items from your vehicle before drop-off. While we take precautions to protect interiors during our work, we cannot be responsible for personal belongings left in vehicles during the painting process.
We recommend removing items from glove compartments, consoles, door pockets, and trunk areas. Our team will help identify any items that should be removed during the initial inspection.
While we don't provide rental cars directly, we can recommend local rental agencies that offer competitive rates. For insurance-related repairs, rental car coverage is typically included in your policy and we can help coordinate this with your insurance company.
We understand that being without your vehicle is inconvenient, so we work efficiently to complete projects within the agreed timeline while maintaining our quality standards.
Customer satisfaction is our top priority. If you're not completely satisfied with our work, we'll work with you to address any concerns and make it right. This may include touch-ups, corrections, or in rare cases, redoing portions of the work.
We perform thorough quality inspections before calling any job complete, but we understand that your satisfaction is what ultimately matters. We've built our reputation on happy customers and stand behind every project we complete.
