Taylorville to our Springfield shop

Which shop fits
Springfield, Monday to Wednesday, 8:00 to 5:00, is the natural pick from Taylorville. Our Lincoln shop is open Thursday to Saturday, but from Taylorville it is about 56 miles, over an hour, so it only makes sense if a late-week day is all you have.

Oak trees, acorns and your roof
That Cadillac is a good reminder that hail is not the only thing that dents a roof. If you park under oaks or walnut trees, read our fall page on acorn and walnut dents.
Dealing straight with your insurance company
After a hailstorm, check the car yourself first. Our guide on how to check your car for hail damage shows you how.
Whether hail is covered, and what you pay out of pocket, depends on your policy and your insurance company. Call them, get a claim number, and then call us. In Illinois you are not required to use your insurance company’s suggested shop, though if your shop charges more than theirs you may have to pay the difference (Illinois Department of Insurance). We work with adjusters and bring the proper lighting, so everybody is looking at the same dents. The steps are on our insurance page.
What to bring
- Your claim number and the adjuster’s email, if it is an insurance job.
- A clean car, so the dents are easy to see.
- Payment: we take check, credit card, cash and crypto (payments).
- If you served or are serving in the U.S. military, ask us in person about our military discount.
Neighbors out Route 4 can see our Chatham page, and Decatur folks have their own page.
