Two vans out of St. Petersburg
Owner-run mobile repair. No shop and no waiting room: the work happens where your car is. Nate started it with one van; Luis drives the second.

Why a van, not a shop
A van can afford to say no.
A shop has rent to cover whether the work is worth doing or not, and that pressure leaks into quotes. A van doesn’t.
If a dent isn’t a paintless dent, we can say so, drive away and lose nothing but an hour. The refusals on our work orders exist because the business is built to afford them.
What’s in the van
A small shop on wheels
Rods and glue tabs, line boards and LED lights, a compressor and an inverter, a plastic welder, a spot-repair spray setup with extraction, wheel finishing gear and a stock of trim clips.
There’s a canopy off the side, because reading a shallow dent in direct Florida sun isn’t reading, it’s guessing.

The longer story
Where we came from
Where we came from
Body shop, then hail work. Hail is where most people in this trade learn it, because a storm puts a season’s worth of dents in front of you in a fortnight and there is no way to fake your way through a roof panel. It also teaches the thing this website is mostly about: on a car with a hundred and forty dents, four of them will be over cracked paint, and the tech who pushes those four out has just turned a paintless job into a repaint. You learn to look before you touch, and you learn to say so out loud.
The address
210 Curbside Loop, St. Petersburg, FL 33701 is a yard. The vans get loaded there in the morning and parked there at night, and there is nothing else on the site. There is no counter, no waiting room, no coffee and nobody to talk to during the day, because during the day both vans are somewhere else. If you drive over you will find a gate. The work happens where your car is, which is the entire proposition.
How we work
Three things we won’t bend on
Look before we touch
The paint gets checked on the line board before anything is pushed.
Say no out loud
If it’s a body-shop job, you hear it from your photos, not at the car.

Every repair and every refusal on a work order you keep.

Dispatch looks at your photos and comes back with a yes, a no, or a written price. The van comes to wherever the car is parked.
