STEP 1:

Insurance & Communication

Most insurance carriers are open 24/7, which means you can file a claim after hours or on the weekends. Contact your local Key Collision to schedule an appointment. Appointments are required.

When you leave your vehicle at one of our locations, we will require (and help) you to remove everything inside your vehicle. The paperwork will include an authorization to repair and limited power of attorney. We will also discuss the terms of vehicle payment, including your insurance deductible. If you need a rental car, we work directly with Enterprise.

We also encourage our customers to opt for text message updates as we have found it’s the most efficient means of communication. We will alert you as to where your car is in the repair process and contact you via text with any questions.

STEP 2:

Vehicle Disassembly & Your Repair Plan

We use a structured approach to evaluate the damage to your vehicle on a part-by-part basis, including electrical scanning of the vehicle’s systems to uncover any underlying issues. After disassembling your vehicle to inspect for full damage, we create a thorough blueprint detailing everything that will happen during the repair process. All of this takes between 1–3 hours.

We’ll submit the repair plan to your insurance company after the disassembly and blueprint process is complete to expedite the approval. Your insurance company will approve the plan and any additional estimates, if necessary. Once we’re in agreement, we order the necessary parts and begin repairs.

Vehicle Disassembly & Your Repair Plan

Two auto workers are focused on a task with a white car. One, with tattooed arms, is standing and holding a pen, possibly assessing or planning the work to be done. The other, wearing a beanie, is crouched and appears to be feeling the surface of the car door, possibly checking the work done or preparing for the next step.
STEP 3:

The Repair Process

In most cases, we begin repairs immediately — even before the new parts arrive. This process includes both computerized measuring of any structural damage and mechanical repairs. The timeline will depend on the extent of the damage, but we will keep you informed every step of the way while we use the most up-to-date technology and equipment to provide the best possible repairs. We also use Mirka dust-free sanding systems for safe, efficient repairs and the health of our technicians.

STEP 4:

Our Full-Service Paint Shop

After your vehicle is repaired, it will visit our full-service paint shop. We have chosen manufacturer-approved BASF automotive paints for their high quality and environmental friendliness. To protect the new paint and make your vehicle shine, our I-CAR, BASF and ASE certified technicians apply resilient finishes and glosses.

STEP 4:

Our Full-Service Paint Shop

An array of paint canisters attached to a dispensing system, each labeled with different color codes and names such as Persimmon Orange and Red Orange. The system appears to be used for precision in paint mixing or selection in an industrial or retail paint-mixing setting.
STEP 5:

Vehicle Reassembly

We take great care in reassembling your vehicle, including the use of AirPro Diagnostics systems. Because Key Collision uses AirPro Diagnostics, we have access to the OEM software with the most up-to-date information available. This ensures that repairs can happen directly at Key Collision, which means a faster turnaround time than many other repair shops. At this point, you will receive a text message telling you where we are in the process, including an estimated time frame for completion. After the reassembly process is complete, we wash, clean and vacuum your vehicle.

A person is filling out a quality control checklist with a red pen. The form is clipped to a board, with the name 'Christopher' filled in a field at the top. The focus is on the hand and the checklist, highlighting a step in the quality assurance process.
STEP 7:

Vehicle Pickup, Payment & Repair Review

We will contact you by text message and follow up by phone that your vehicle is ready. We will also confirm payment to ensure vehicle pickup goes smoothly. Upon arrival, one of our staff members will review the repairs of your vehicle carside. If you’re using an Enterprise rental car, we’ll take care of its return.

STEP 7:

Vehicle Pickup, Payment & Repair Review

A white sedan car is parked in front of a building with the sign 'KEY COLLISION OF CONCORD'. The building has a modern look with a mix of gray siding and white panels, and a few snow piles on the side indicate a winter or early spring season. This setting suggests the car may be ready for pick-up after servicing at the collision center.
STEP 8:

Lifetime Warranty

Rest assured that you can feel confident in your repairs. Our work is guaranteed in writing for as long as you own the vehicle.

The communication throughout this process, provided peace of mind through each step of my car’s progress to be completed. The staff were incredibly friendly and though I hope I’ll never be in the situation of needing a body shop again, key collision will be my first choice if I were to ever need such services
Giana
Collision Center of Nashua
Communication throughout the process was excellent. The car was ready one day earlier than promised. Ease of having rental car delivered to Key Collision and ability to drop off the rental afterwards was very convenient. Repair is meticulously completed and you can’t even tell where the damage was. Thank you Key Collision!
