Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions about Collision Repair in Cadillac, MI

Get your answers to common questions about our collision repair services in Cadillac, MI.

Do you work with my insurance company after an accident?

Yes. We work directly with all major insurance carriers — handling the estimate, supplements, adjuster communication, and paperwork so you don't have to chase it. Bring your claim number and we'll take it from there.

How long does collision repair usually take?

It depends on the extent of the damage and parts availability. Minor dent and bumper repairs can take a few days, while major collision and frame work can take a couple of weeks. We give you a realistic timeline up front and keep you updated.

Do you offer a discount for returning customers?

We do. Returning customers can get up to $500 off their deductible. If you've brought a vehicle to us before, mention it when you book your estimate and we'll apply it to your repair.

Can you fix deer damage from northern Michigan roads?

Absolutely — deer strikes are some of the most common work we see around Cadillac. We rebuild front ends including grilles, headlights, radiators, and frame supports, and we'll document everything for your insurance claim.

Do you handle frame and structural straightening?

Yes. We straighten the frame to factory specifications after a structural impact. Proper frame alignment is what makes the car drive straight and the panels line up.

Will my paint color match after the repair?

Yes. We color-match every panel in our paint booth and blend into adjacent panels so the repair is invisible. Michigan winters are hard on paint, so we use quality materials that hold up over time.

What areas around Cadillac do you serve?

We serve drivers across northern Michigan, including Cadillac, Lake City, Manton, Mesick, McBain, Traverse City, Houghton Lake, Manistee, Reed City, and Clare. If you can get the vehicle to us or arrange a tow, we'll do the work.

We recommend calling ahead so we can set aside time to look your vehicle over properly. We're open Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM. Stop by 315 Hanthorne St in Cadillac or call us to schedule.
