How Our Photo Estimate Works (and Why It Saves You a Trip)

You don't have to drive across the High Desert to find out what a repair will cost. Our online photo estimate lets you start the process from wherever you are.

How it works

  1. Tap the Get a Photo Estimate button.
  2. Take photos of the damage from a few angles. Wide shots help us see the whole panel; close-ups show the detail.
  3. Add your contact info and submit.

Our estimators review the photos and follow up with a preliminary estimate. When you're ready, bring the vehicle in for a full inspection and we'll finalize everything with your insurance company.

Tips for better photos

  • Shoot in daylight, outdoors if possible.
  • Wipe off dirt so scratches and dents are visible.
  • Include a photo of your VIN plate or registration.
