AUTO BODY REPAIR・COLUMBUS

Yes. We have a long-standing partnership with Enterprise rent-a-car. We make it easy. 

If you choose not to file a claim after an auto accident, you should know that you are waiving the ability to get money to help offset the costs of repairs from your insurance company and therefore taking on the full cost of any repairs yourself. 

If the repairs are minor and the cost to repair them is less than your insurance deductible, you may choose to pay out of pocket to avoid any possible insurance premium increases that may stem from filing a claim. Some damages are not able to be seen until after repairs have begun, and if that happens, you’ve already chosen to handle the cost of the repairs yourself and it will be too late at that point to file an insurance claim. 

When accidents involve other parties and more extensive damage, you’ll want to file a claim with your insurance company and not the other party’s.

Your deductible is made payable to Combs Collision upon completion of your auto repairs. We accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, check, and debit card.

It’s a common notion that insurance companies require you to get more than one estimate when looking for repair work. This is simply not the case. You are free to choose any reputable repair provider you want. It’s our job to provide a damage report and estimated costs. Occasionally there is unforeseen damage. That’s why most vehicles are repaired on an open contract basis between the repair facility and the insurance company.

We know you want your vehicle back as soon as possible. So we make every effort to ensure your vehicle is repaired quickly, but exactly how long is determined by the amount and severity of the damage. It also greatly depends on the type of vehicle as well as the availability of parts. More common cars will have parts that are more readily available. Sometimes, when the repair work begins, other damaged parts are revealed.

We give you the option to check your repair status through our website, here.
