At an automobile collision repair facility, the estimating process typically follows these steps:

1. Vehicle Check-In & Initial Assessment

When a customer arrives at the facility, a service advisor or estimator gathers information about the accident, including details about the damage, insurance coverage, and any concerns from the customer. Photos may be taken to document the condition of the vehicle.

2. Damage Inspection

A thorough visual inspection is performed to assess visible damage. If necessary, the estimator may disassemble certain areas to identify hidden damage that could affect repairs.

3. Estimate Creation

Using specialized estimating software, the repair facility calculates the cost of parts, labor, paint, and materials needed to restore the vehicle. The software ensures accuracy by referencing manufacturer guidelines and industry labor rates.

4. Insurance Approval (If Applicable)

If the repair is covered by insurance, the estimate is sent to the insurance company for approval. The insurer may send an adjuster to inspect the vehicle or approve the estimate electronically. Any negotiations or modifications to the estimate take place at this stage.

5. Customer Review & Authorization

Once the estimate is finalized, the customer is provided with a detailed breakdown of the repairs and costs. The customer must authorize the work before any repairs begin.

6. Scheduling Repairs

After approval, the vehicle is scheduled for repairs. If parts need to be ordered, this step is coordinated to minimize downtime.

Throughout the process, customers are often updated on the status of their repair, and any additional damage discovered during the repair may require a supplemental estimate.
