Your Questions
Answered
How long does a typical collision repair take?
Most repairs take 5-10 business days depending on the extent of damage and parts availability. We provide a detailed timeline at estimate and keep you updated throughout the process.
Do you use OEM parts?
Yes. We use OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts whenever possible to maintain your vehicle's safety, fit, and value. We discuss parts options with you before beginning any repair.
Will my car look the same after repair?
Better. Our computerized paint matching and I-CAR certified techniques mean your repair will be invisible. Many customers tell us their car looks better than before the accident.
Can I choose Crash Lab even if my insurance recommends another shop?
Absolutely. California law guarantees your right to choose any repair shop. No insurance company can require you to use their preferred facility. We work with every major carrier.
What happens if I use my insurance company's recommended shop?
You can, but you should know the risks. Insurance-preferred shops agree to discount rates, which can mean aftermarket parts, skipped procedures, or rushed repairs. California law gives you the right to choose any licensed shop. At Crash Lab, we answer to you, not your insurer, and every repair is backed by our lifetime warranty.
What does your lifetime warranty cover?
Our true lifetime warranty covers all work performed by Crash Lab for as long as you own the vehicle. If anything we repaired ever fails, we fix it free of charge, no questions, no expiration. Learn more on our warranty page.
Reviews
What Our Customers Say
"Matthew, Gilbert, and Brad were an absolute pleasure to work with. The paint on my 10 year old car was starting to show its age. My car now looks like new inside and out. I am very impressed with the results."
"My very unique JDM Toyota Land Cruiser had some rust issues and I knew it wasn’t going to be easy to fix it right. Rae and her team were not only able to repair the rust problems and match the root beer brown metallic aftermarket Japanese paint, they also kept me apprised every step of the way!"
"We thought we might have to junk our Nissan Altima after a crash. Gilbert Cerda gave us straight input, and a reasonable estimate to make it roadworthy. A few days later we got the car back and the repair exceeded our expectations."
