No two car accidents are alike, and a variety of factors go into the severity of damage following a collision. Therefore, there is no set time for how long it may take for your car to get the repairs it needs to hit the streets of Plainfield, Indianapolis, Fishers, and Bloomington, IN, again.
When it comes to getting an estimate, though, you can get one in only a couple of days, so you can better understand what services are needed to get your car running smoothly again. Our team at Andy Mohr Collision Center is here to answer all your estimate questions and ensure the entire process is efficient.
Tips for Getting an Estimate
We know you want to get back to the road quickly following your accident, so the following are good steps to take to make sure the estimate process goes smoothly.
Take Pictures
After a collision, make sure you take plenty of pictures of the damage on your vehicle as well as the other car. The insurance company may want to see these pictures to get a better depiction of what occurred. By providing them with this helpful resource, the claim process will go smoothly. You can get your estimate back quickly and begin the repairs needed.
Get More Than One Estimate
Visit various collision centers to receive estimates. As one shop is preparing an estimate of the damage for you, you can be visiting another one to be inspected as well.
Getting more than one estimate is a great way to make sure you’re getting quality work done on your car as well, and most dealerships perform estimates for free. Keep in mind the lowest estimate is not necessarily the best option for you. Make sure you’re researching the collision center too, so you can feel confident your car is in the right hands.
Perform Research
When looking at your collision repair center options, there are certain key factors you want to make sure you look into. For starters, read online reviews to see what experiences other drivers had or look into repair centers recommended to you by friends and family. For example, if your cousin has recently been in a fender bender, ask them how their experience was as far as price, time of repairs, customer service satisfaction, and quality of work done.
