Fifteen years ago, we opened Estuarts Body Shop in Cathedral City because we saw a gap that needed filling.
Across the Coachella Valley, drivers faced an impossible choice: go to a big corporate shop that felt impersonal. We believed Cathedral City deserved better.
From day one, our mission was simple: treat every repair like it matters, because it does. We know that when your car is damaged, it's more than an inconvenience... it disrupts your life.
Maybe it's the vehicle that gets your kids to school, or the truck you depend on for work. Whatever it means to you, we understand the weight of it.
Over the past 15 years, we've grown from a small team with big dreams. Our heart hasn't changed.
We're still the neighbors you wave to at the grocery store, the shop that remembers your name. And we're still driven by that original promise: to be the collision repair partner you can count on, from Palm Springs to every corner of the valley.
Our Philosophy: Precision Meets Pride
Here's what we believe: if it isn't perfect, it isn't finished. While some shops settle for "good enough," we don't. Every vehicle that leaves our bays meets factory specifications... not just close, but exact.
The goal isn't just to fix your car; it's to restore it so completely that you forget the damage ever happened. But great repair work is only half the equation.
The other half? How we treat you. We operate with what we call "radical transparency," no hidden fees, no surprise charges, no runaround.
When we say we'll handle your insurance claim, we mean it. When we promise a timeline, we keep it. And when your car is ready, we don't just hand back the keys. We wash it, and make sure it shines like the day you drove it off the lot.
This isn't just business for us. It's personal. Your trust is everything, and we've spent 15 years earning it, one repair at a time.

Simplified Insurance Claims & Stress-Free Repair
We Handle the Paperwork So You Can Handle Life
At Auto Body Shop Cathedral, we understand that a collision is an unplanned, high-stress event.
Our goal is to minimize that stress by managing the entire claims process for you.
We believe you shouldn't have to be an insurance expert to get your vehicle repaired safely and correctly.
From the moment you arrive, we step in to communicate directly with your insurance provider, eliminating the "headaches" often associated with filing claims and managing adjusters.
We Work With All Major Insurance Providers
Whether you are insured by a large national carrier or a local provider, our team has the experience to navigate their specific filing protocols.
Direct Communication: We speak directly to the claims department to expedite approval.
Fair Estimates: We ensure the insurance estimate covers the true cost of a safe repair, not just a "quick fix."
Your Advocate: We work for you, not the insurance company. Our priority is ensuring your vehicle is restored to its pre-accident condition.
Our 4-Step Stress-Free Process
We have streamlined the repair logistics to get you back on the road as efficiently as possible.
1. Free Estimate & Damage Assessment Bring your vehicle in (or request a tow), and we will provide a comprehensive, transparent estimate of the damage.
2. Claim Coordination & Approval We submit the required documentation and digital imaging to your insurer. If they have already provided an estimate that is too low, we will negotiate the supplement required to fix your car correctly.
3. Logistical Support (Rentals & Towing) Don't worry about how you will get around. We assist in coordinating rental vehicles or loaner cars and can help arrange towing services if your vehicle is unsafe to drive.
4. Expert Repair & Cleanup Our certified technicians perform the repairs and computerized paint matching. Before returning your keys, we perform a complimentary post-repair vehicle cleanup so your car looks as good as it runs.
