A few points to keep in mind about the claims process:
- Report the Accident / File a Claim
As soon as possible after the accident or loss, make a report to your insurance company to prevent delays in repairs. Any time you speak with your insurance company, be sure to write down the name of the person and their contact information. Please write down the name and phone number of the agent you are working with, as well as the claim number. Pass the claim number and agent information to USA Touch Up Auto Body, Inc. when you have them — we will need that information if we contact the insurance company on your behalf. - Contact USA Touch Up Auto Body, Inc.

Because each insurance company has unique procedures, the information we ask for will vary according to your circumstances. Don’t hesitate to ask questions during the intake process. We’re here to help you. - Insurance Company Repair Programs
USA Touch Up Auto Body, Inc.has agreements with several insurance companies to write the estimate and perform the repairs to your vehicle without having an insurance appraiser directly involved. We will provide all the necessary documentation to the insurance company that will be paying for the repair work.
If the Insurance Company Writes the Estimate
If repairs are being paid for by a company that USA Touch Up Auto Body, Inc.does not have a specific agreement with, the insurance company will usually assign their own appraiser to inspect the vehicle and write the estimate. This evaluation may take place at your home, work, or possibly a designated drive-in claims center. If the estimate is incomplete, a USA Touch Up Auto Body, Inc. Representative will contact the insurance company during repairs to have the appraiser re-evaluate the damage. During this re-evaluation, the additional damage will be pointed out to the appraiser so additional repairs and costs can be authorized.
