Mobile Auto Body Shop for Minor Scratch and Dent Repairs

Most people don’t have the time to take their vehicle to a body shop and leave it for a few days just to have scratches and small dents repaired.  This is where the convenience of a mobile auto body shop comes in.

How a Mobile Auto Body Shop Works

Imagine the convenience of driving to work and having your vehicle repaired right in the parking lot while you work.  When your ready to leave the office the repairs are complete and you can drive your car home.  In many cases, your vehicle is ready by lunch time!

A mobile auto body shop is a van equipped with everything the service technician needs to repair minor scratches and dents right in your driveway or at your workplace.  They can repair football-sized dents, scratches, scrapes and abrasions on vehicles while you go about your business.  This is a great convenience because you don’t have to be without your vehicle for days at a time while it sits at the body shop.  A mobile auto body shop is also a great money saver; no need to rent car while yours is in the body shop.

The mobile auto body shop is a unique service; very convenient and inexpensive.  The service technician should be able to assess the damage, provide an estimate and do the work the same day.  They do have their limitations; if the damage is extensive they will recommend taking the vehicle to a body shop.

Quality of Repair with a Mobile Auto Body Shop

You may be concerned with the quality of repair that can be done by a mobile auto body shop. A good service will be able to computer match the color of the paint on your vehicle for a perfect match.  There is no reason to sacrifice quality for this convenience.  Advanced technology enables a mobile auto shop to carry everything they need to be portable.  They will also work under a tent so they are not disrupting others or damaging nearby property.

Convenience of a Mobile Auto Body Shop

A mobile auto body shop can complete some repairs in just a couple hours.  These same repairs, done in a body shop, would require leaving your vehicle for a day or two.  Body shops often focus on the bigger, more expensive jobs while the vehicles in need of minor repairs sit and wait.

Cost of Service by a Mobile Auto Body Shop

Since there is considerably less overhead with a mobile auto body shop they are able to pass the savings on to the customer.  They don’t have to lease a building and expensive equipment, pay utility bills, property insurance or any other costs associated with a building.  Everything they need is in their vehicle.

One of the main reasons a customer will use a mobile auto body shop is that most of the minor repairs that need to be done cost less than their insurance company’s deductible.  Most people would rather pay for these small repairs without involving their insurance company for fear of an increase in premiums.  They want to remain in good standing with their insurance company in case they need them for something more serious.
