Once you drop off your car, the repair of your vehicle starts in the body shop portion of our facility. As repairs begin to take place, the body parts to be replaced are being painted in our cut-in area. Repairs are made by our
I-CAR Gold Class Certified technicians. All technicians receive training from
I-CAR, the most highly recognized authority in collision repair training worldwide.
When structure or frame damage is present, the vehicle is precisely measured and brought back to original manufacturers specs with the use of a The Cheetah SF bench system. Manufacturers specs allow up to 3 millimeters of tolerance in structural panels. The The Cheetah SF only allows for as much as 1 millimeter of tolerance in the repairs from an accident. Now that repairs have been made in the body shop, it is time to move to the paint shop
Once again I-CAR trained and certified paint technicians apply their skill to your vehicle. We use only the highest quality of materials and paint provided by DuPont painting systems. This promises a color match and quality equal to that of the manufacturer. All painting is done in our state of the art down draft Paragon paint booths. When the painting process is complete, the car goes back to the body shop to have the moldings or trim installed
Now that the car is completely reassembled, it goes to the mechanical area of our shop, if needed. Each Herb's location has full-time I-Car trained mechanics should your car need a 4-wheel suspension alignment, an air bag replacement or any other mechanical repair. After mechanical repairs are completed, your car goes into our detail department
Here the car is vacuumed, washed and a dressing is applied to the tires. With the detail complete, the car is ready for its final inspection. All aspects of the repair are checked and tested. Now that all the repairs have been completed to our satisfaction, it's time for you to get your car back.
