Accident damage repair at Invisible Touch Inc. restores the structural integrity of your vehicle's frame, body panels, and finish after a collision — and we work directly with your insurance company so the process is as straightforward as possible.
Accident damage repair
Every system affected by the collision, not just the surface
If your vehicle was hit — in a parking lot, at an intersection, or on the highway — bring it to our Bedford, MA shop. We assess all damage, document it for your insurer, and handle everything from frame alignment to final paint.
Every system affected by the collision
Accident damage repair addresses every system affected by a collision — including rear-end impacts, intersection collisions, and parking lot damage — not just the visible surface. Every repair begins with a complete damage assessment: not just what's visible, but what the impact may have displaced beneath the surface.
- Structural, panel, paint, and insurance handled in one shop
- Not just the visible surface
- Full assessment before any repair begins

What it covers
What accident damage repair covers
Accident damage repair addresses every system affected by a collision — including rear-end impacts, intersection collisions, and parking lot damage — not just the visible surface.
Body Panel Damage
Bent, creased, or crushed quarter panels, doors, hoods, and fenders.
Bumper Damage
Front and rear bumper cover replacement or repair depending on impact severity.
Paint Damage
Primer, base coat, and clear coat restoration matched to the original factory finish.
Airbag and Safety System Resets
When airbags deploy, sensors, modules, and safety systems must be inspected or replaced before the vehicle can safely return to the road.
Glass and Trim Damage
Adjacent components documented and replaced as part of the full repair scope.
You Have the Right to Choose Your Shop
You are never required to use an insurer's preferred shop — you have the right to choose your repair facility. Massachusetts law gives you the right to choose any licensed auto body repair shop, and your insurer cannot legally require you to use a specific facility.
Every Damage Point Is Documented
We document all damage in writing and photograph every affected area before disassembly, so nothing found later comes as a surprise on your claim.
Hidden Damage Goes to Your Adjuster, Not You
If additional damage is found once the vehicle is opened, we contact your adjuster directly — not you.
Your Deductible Is the Only Out-of-Pocket Cost
Your deductible is your only out-of-pocket cost when the claim is filed correctly. Collision coverage pays for accident damage repair after you pay your deductible; if another driver caused the accident, their liability coverage may pay the full repair cost.
Total Loss Determinations
In severe collisions where repair costs exceed the vehicle's value, the insurer may declare a total loss. In those cases, we provide the full damage documentation required for the insurance evaluation.

What should I do right after an accident?
Document the damage with photos at the scene, file a police report if required, and notify your insurance company. Do not authorize any repairs until you have chosen your repair shop. You can bring your vehicle to Invisible Touch Inc. for a free damage assessment before filing your claim.
How long does accident damage repair take?
Most accident damage repairs at Invisible Touch Inc. take 5–10 business days. Repairs involving structural frame work, custom paint matching, or parts on backorder may take longer. We provide a timeline estimate after the initial damage assessment.
Will the repaired area match my car's original finish?
Yes. We match your vehicle's factory color code exactly and restore panel alignment, finish, and trim to pre-accident condition. You should not be able to visually identify the repaired areas from the original panels.
Does insurance cover accident damage repair?
Collision coverage pays for accident damage repair after you pay your deductible. Comprehensive coverage applies to non-collision damage such as hail or falling objects. If another driver caused the accident, their liability coverage may pay the full repair cost. We work with your insurer to confirm coverage before starting work.
Do I have to use my insurer's preferred repair shop?
No. Massachusetts law gives you the right to choose any licensed auto body repair shop. Your insurer cannot legally require you to use a specific facility. Invisible Touch Inc. works directly with all major carriers regardless of their preferred shop networks.
