Our Services
We protect vehicle owners from substandard collision repairs and fight insurance companies to ensure you receive fair compensation.
Collision Repair Reinspection
Thorough independent inspection of collision repairs to verify work was completed to industry standards. We check structural integrity, panel alignment, paint quality, and mechanical systems.
Insurance Dispute Support
When insurance companies undervalue your claim or deny proper repairs, we provide documented evidence and expert reports to support your case and get you the compensation you deserve.
Post-Repair Inspection
Before you accept your vehicle back from the body shop, let us verify the repairs meet OEM specifications. Our detailed report documents every finding with photos.
Expert Witness / Consulting
Need an expert to testify about repair quality or vehicle damage? With 40+ years of collision repair experience, Robert McLeod provides credible, court-ready testimony.
Diminished Value Assessment
Your vehicle loses value after an accident — even with perfect repairs. We document and quantify the diminished value to help you recover what insurance companies owe you.
Structural Inspection
Comprehensive undercarriage and frame inspection to identify hidden structural damage, improper welds, missing seam sealer, and safety-critical repair failures.
Had Your Car Repaired at a Chain Shop?
Don't Just Take Their Word For It
Major collision repair chains like Caliber Collision, Gerber Collision, Crash Champions, and Service King handle massive volumes of repairs. Insurance companies often steer you to these shops because of their agreements — not because they guarantee the best work. An independent reinspection protects you.
Caliber Collision
Had your vehicle repaired at Caliber Collision? As one of the largest collision repair chains in the country, volume can sometimes mean corners get cut. We independently verify that your Caliber Collision repair meets OEM specifications and industry standards.
Gerber Collision & Glass
Gerber Collision handles thousands of repairs, but not every job comes back right. If you suspect your Gerber Collision repair has issues — uneven panel gaps, paint defects, or warning lights — our reinspection will document everything.
Crash Champions
Crash Champions is growing fast, but rapid expansion can affect quality control. Whether it's structural concerns, incomplete repairs, or ADAS calibration issues, we inspect Crash Champions repairs with the same thorough checklist.
Service King
Service King repairs millions of vehicles, but insurance-driven timelines can lead to rushed work. Our independent reinspection of your Service King repair ensures nothing was missed and your vehicle is safe to drive.
