The Ironside Pledge

We work for you.
Not the insurer.

Five promises we print on the estimate and keep on the floor. If we break one, the repair is on us — and the warranty still stands.

  1. 01

    OEM procedures only

    We follow the manufacturer’s repair procedures — not a cheaper shortcut. If the book says replace, we replace. If it says a structural adhesive, we use that adhesive.

  2. 02

    No hidden blend charges

    The estimate you approve is the estimate we stand on. Blend, corrosion protection and ADAS recalibration are written in, not sprung on you at pickup.

  3. 03

    Photos at every stage

    Teardown, blueprint, weld, prime, color, reassembly. You get a dated photo set so you can see the work — and so the file is bulletproof if an insurer asks later.

  4. 04

    We call before we deviate

    Hidden damage happens. When it does, a real estimator calls you before a wrench turns on the extra work. No “we already did it” voicemails.

  5. 05

    Lifetime warranty, in writing

    Every repair leaves with a printed lifetime workmanship warranty. Not a slogan on the wall. A document with our name on it.

What we fix

Collision. Paint. Custom. Fleet.

How a job actually runs

Six gates. Zero surprises.

Most shops skip the photos and the phone call. This is the sequence every Ironside job follows — collision, custom or fleet.

  1. 01

    Same day

    Estimate

    Drive in or send photos. A licensed estimator writes a line-by-line blueprint — OEM parts, blend, ADAS, rental — and walks you through it before anyone picks up a wrench.

  2. 02

    Day 1–2

    Teardown & blueprint

    We disassemble to the last hidden clip, photograph every cavity, and update the estimate if we find damage the walk-around missed. You approve before we continue.

  3. 03

    Days 2–6

    Repair

    Steel, aluminum or carbon — each in its own bay with its own tools. Structural work is measured on the Chief rack to factory specs, not “close enough.”

  4. 04

    Days 4–8

    Paint

    Two downdraft booths, spectrophotometer matching, and a spray-out card you can hold next to the panel. No “it will blend in the sun.”

  5. 05

    Day of

    QC & calibration

    Fit, finish, corrosion protection, then ADAS, cameras and radar on the Hunter rack. We do not hand back a car that is not road-legal.

  6. 06

    Pickup day

    Hand-back

    You get the keys, the photo set, the lifetime warranty and a walk-around with the estimator who wrote the job. Questions happen here, not in a one-star review.

’68 Camaro — bare-metal restoration, Hugger Orange

A barn-find first-gen that deserved metal work, not filler, and a color that belongs on a 1968.

From the lot

What they said after they got the keys.

Sample reviews — replace with your own

Geico wanted their DRP shop. I chose Ironside. Danny sent teardown photos the same afternoon and called me before they ordered the quarter. The Antimatter Blue match is invisible — even my dealer asked who painted it.

Keisha Morrow

2021 F-150 · Mesa

They stripped my ’68 to bare metal and never once said “that’s good enough for a weekend car.” Hugger Orange, correct stripes, documented welds. I drive it to Cars & Coffee and people ask for the shop card.

1968 Camaro · Gilbert

Aluminum quarter on a Model 3 plus camera calibration. Half the shops I called said they “don’t touch Teslas.” Ironside had it back in nine days with the ADAS report in the folder. Lifetime warranty in the glovebox.
