How long will the repairs to my vehicle take?
The adjustor can give you an estimate of the time it will take to
complete the repairs to your vehicle. Each vehicle is unique as are its
parts. The repairs are often times based on the availability of the
materials.
Can you provide transportation home for me when I drop off vehicle?
Yes, we would be happy to provide this service to you. We want each
customer's visit to be a positive experience and will work diligently
towards this goal.
How Can I get a rental car?
If you need a rental car, we can help you make the necessary
arrangements. Insurance companies will only pay for a rental car if you
have that option on your policy. Check your policy and /or call your
insurance company to find out if you have rental coverage and what your
specific limits are.
How will I know when my car is done?
You will be notified by phone when your vehicle is ready to be picked
up. Feel free to call us during the repair process if you have
questions or concerns.
Is there a warranty on the repairs to my vehicle?
Yes, Delmarva Auto Collision will repair your vehicle to it's
pre-accident condition complete with a written, limited-lifetime
warranty.
Do I have to pay a deductible?
The amount of the deductible that you will be responsible for is
determined by your insurance policy. If you carry standard collision,
you will have to pay your deductible regardless of whether you or the
other driver was at fault. If you carry broad collision, and are not at
fault, your insurance company will most likely waive your deductible.
Insurance companies determine fault by your account of the accident,
when you make the claim, and by reviewing the accident report filed with
the police department.
Who do I pay my deductible to?
If your deductible is not waived, it will be your responsibility to pay
Delmarva Auto Collision prior to repairs being performed on your
vehicle.
What forms of payment do you accept?
The easiest and most convenient way to pay for your portion of the
repairs to your vehicle is with a major credit card. We accept Visa,
MasterCard, American Express, Discover, personal checks and cash.
Can I wash my car?
Recommendations and precautions in the first 30 days
-
DO’s
- Wash the vehicle by hand with cool water and a very mild car wash
solution using a soft cloth or sponge. Always use fresh clean water.
Wash your vehicle in the shade.
-
Don’t’s
- Do not use a commercial car wash. Stiff brushes or sponges could mar
the finish and damage the surface. Do not “dry wipe” your vehicle. Dry
wiping can scratch the finish. Avoid gravel roads. Chipping the finish
is easily done in the first 30 days. Avoid parking under trees and
utility lines, which are likely to attract birds. Bird droppings have
a high acid content and will damage a freshly painted surface.
Recommendations and precautions in the first 90 days
Do not wax or polish the vehicle. This will allow the finish to dry and
harden completely.
