Tools of the Trade.

Does a carpenter come to your home without a hammer?  Does the plumber arrive without a snake? (Yikes…you know what we mean).  If you have to go to the hospital do they lack an X-Ray machine? (I sure hope not).  Then, when you need an auto body repair shop in the Chicago area you expect them to have all of the latest tools don’t you?

Here are just a few of the tools of the auto body trade –

1.  An air compressor

2.  Dual action sander

3.  A slide hammer and/or a stud welder

4.  The traditional hammer and dolly set

5.  Sanding blocks

All of that is well and good, but in the hands of the wrong crew they are all meaningless.  When those tools and many others are wielded by the auto body repair professionals at Arrow Body and Fender magic happens!  Your poor, injured vehicle is restored to like-new condition.  Make an appointment at their Elmwood Park location by calling (708) 456-9424.

Warranties that Last a Lifetime.

If you are a car owner that has a vehicle repaired after a wreck, typically you may look over the area that was damaged to see how well the repairs were made.  Then, you might take your vehicle for a ride to make sure everything is operating as it was prior to the accident.  It is important to look for a lifetime warranty.

What exactly does that mean?  A lifetime warranty means that particular collision repair shop will guarantee the work performed on your vehicle for as long as you own that car.  If a body shop has to make warranty repairs, it is a cost to them in doing the repairs differently in the future or possibly using different parts to guarantee the repairs will last for years to come.

Please visit www.arrowbodyandfender.com on the web.  Read the page marked parts.  You will quickly see that we inspect each and every part before our mechanics even consider it worthy of being installed on your vehicle.  Trust a top Chicagoland auto body repair shop located in Elmwood Park.  Give Arrow Body and Fender a call at (708) 456-9424.

Working with Insurance Companies.

Oh boy, there is a topic that we could devote pages and pages to.  Whether it is life, home, health, or car insurance companies they exist for one primary reason…to make money for their company’s investors!  Please do not forget that when you are working with your auto insurance provider.

Insurance companies do not WANT to pay out claims, of course, but they will.  So, if you think that the little green lizard is on your side, you may have to think twice.  Dealing with auto insurance companies when you are an auto body shop is a part of the daily routine and you had better be good at it.

There is a shop in the Chicago area where the owner used to be a physical damage appraiser before he took over his dad’s body shop.  That sounds like the place to go!  It is Arrow Body and Fender located in Elmwood Park.  For decades, they have worked in concert with insurance companies to get you back on the road ASAP.  Call Joe and his team today at (708) 456-9424.
