Blowtherm Down Draft Paint Booth

Not only do you want your vehicle to look and ride as it did before its misfortune, but you also what to make sure that the environment remains healthy for future generations. Charles County Auto Body is an environmentally friendly collision repair company. This is why we use two Blowtherm Down Draft paint booths. This paint capturing and recycling system possesses two quality features. One, we can produce factory like finishes on any car or truck with a complete dust and dirt-free self-contained environment, and two, by capturing and recycling paint and dust particles we ensure that our business doesn't damage the ozone and environment.

Kansas

We perform our frame and unibody work with only state of the art equipment, including two Kansas Jack Frame / Unibody machines with laser alignment. This ensures that when we repair your vehicle, it is within the factory specifications for alignment and angle. We return the vehicle to it original specifications just as it was when it left the factory.

Direct Repair Shop for most Major Insurance Companies

Charles County is a Direct Repair Provider for some of the largest insurance companies in the country.  We deal directly with most major insurance companies.  This means if you have coverage with one of the major providers, we can reduce your stress in finding a quality collision repair facility to do your work. These companies have already certified us as a quality collision repair facility -- a designation that was earned through working with these companies and their claims adjusters and appraisers for many years. But don't fret! If you don't have one of the mentioned insurance providers, that's okay. We accept all insurance estimates and claims. In fact, we provide "FREE" estimates for you to provide to your insurance provider.

We take 10 steps after your smashing experience to get you back on the road:

1. Evaluate your vehicle and identify what is needed to repair it.
2. Document the plan: confirm coverage; review payment policy; schedule repairs; present repair order for your approval; and submit estimate to insurance company, if needed.
3. Obtain parts.
4. Disassemble damaged parts and re-inspect vehicle for hidden damage.
5. Replace or repair all damaged parts and then inspect for completeness.
6. Prepare for painting by cleaning, sanding, priming, sealing, and masking.
7. Expertly mix new paint to match your color, apply multiple coats, followed by clear coats for added gloss and protection.
8. Assemble final parts, which are cleaned and inspected to meet our highest quality standards.
9. Notify you to confirm that repairs are completed and schedule pickup of vehicle.
10. Review the repairs, ask if you have questions, and ensure your satisfaction with our work.
