What happens when my car is repaired at the Toyota of Orlando body shop?

First, an estimate is prepared by our highly trained estimator

They’ll document the damage to your car after a full inspection in order to prepare this estimate, even if your insurance company has already provided you with a preliminary one. We can’t start working on your vehicle until you sign off that it’s all right. We’ll need your signature on a repair authorization, and we may need another signature in advance in case we discover any other damage when we’re working on the repair. We also need the approval of your insurance company for the estimate before we can begin work. Once we’ve received approval from both you and your insurance company, we can begin repairs.

Next, we locate and order the parts needed

Once we have all the parts at our Toyota of Orlando body shop, we’ll schedule your repair. If your car isn’t already here, we’ll contact you for a convenient time for you to drop it off. Once we’ve scheduled your repair, we can give you an estimate as to when your vehicle should be finished and when you can pick it up. However, this date may change if we find additional damage once the repair is underway.

Exterior finishes

Next, we’ll begin testing all of your systems for proper functioning and check the quality of the auto repairs. For example, we may check your safety systems to ensure they’re working properly. Then it’s time for the cosmetic aspect of the repair.

We’ll begin the refinishing process by applying a primer, a surface filler, and then using block sanding to prepare the surface for paint. We’ll mask your vehicle to avoid over spraying while painting, and then put your car in a paint booth, where the car paint job is carried out.

During the repair process, your car may be exposed to outside contaminants. In this step, we’ll chemically clean and tack your vehicle to ensure all of them are removed, as well as any dust.

We next undergo a multi-step refinishing process to get your car into a like-new state. We’ll conform to the original manufacturer’s specifications, and back our paint job with a Limited Lifetime Paint Performance Guarantee.
