1. The Estimate
The estimator will inspect your vehicle to assess the amount of damage sustained. An estimate is prepared and you will be given a completion date and asked to sign authorization for repairs. The estimate is then submitted to your insurance company for their approval of the repairs to be completed.
2. Damage & Parts
Once parts have been removed, a secondary inspection will determine if there is any damage that was not detected initially. If more damage is found, a supplemental report is sent to the insurance company.
3. Body and Structural Repair
Before any repair is started, an extensive pre-wash is done. If necessary, your vehicle will be placed on unibody repair equipment. New panels will be prepared and installed. We then prime, seal and add corrosion protection to the new parts. All work is inspected and tested. Once the repairs are signed off, the vehicle will head to the paint department.
4. Windshield and Glass Replacement
You can rely on Minot's Finest Collision Center professionals to handle your auto glass repair or replacement needs. Today's windshields are designed as part of the vehicle's passenger rollover safety strategy, and should be professionally treated as the safety device it was intended to be. At Minot's Finest, we make sure your vehicle's windshield glass is back to industry standards.
5. Painting
The vehicle is prepped and now is ready to undergo our multi-step refinishing process.
6. Reassembly & The Finishing Touches
Parts that were removed for painting are reassembled, the vehicle is realigned, and climate control is checked for proper operation. The vehicle is then completely detailed, hand washed and inspected.
Remember: Where your vehicle is repaired is your choice!
If your vehicle is damaged and needs repair, it is your choice where you have the work done regardless of where an insurance company may direct, suggest or recommend you go. Participation in an insurance company's direct repair program may eliminate some steps in the claims process for you. Participation is a business decision made on the part of the shop. Not all shops choose to participate in every program for a variety of reasons. If you have an accident, we hope you will choose us!
