Collision Repair in San Ramon, CA
From parking-lot fender benders to major structural damage, our I-CAR certified technicians restore your vehicle to factory specifications — and back it with a lifetime warranty.
A collision is stressful enough without wondering whether your car will ever feel the same again. D & S Auto Body Shop has been repairing collision-damaged vehicles at 1955 San Ramon Valley Blvd since 1989, and in that time we have become one of the Tri-Valley's most trusted names in accident repair. We are an AAA Approved Auto Repair facility and our technicians hold I-CAR certifications, which means every repair follows current manufacturer procedures rather than shortcuts.
We repair everything from bumper covers and quarter panels to full unibody structural damage, on domestic, import, hybrid, and EV vehicles. Every job starts with a free written estimate, and we handle the insurance conversation on your behalf so you are not stuck negotiating with an adjuster.

Our Collision Repair Process
- 01
Free damage assessment
Drive in during business hours — no appointment needed — and we will write a detailed estimate, photograph the damage, and explain what the repair involves.
- 02
Insurance coordination
We contact your adjuster, submit documentation, and handle supplements when hidden damage is uncovered during disassembly.
- 03
Disassembly and blueprinting
We tear down the damaged area to find everything the initial estimate could not see, then build a complete repair plan to OEM procedures.
- 04
Structural and body repair
Frame and unibody work is measured against factory specifications, panels are repaired or replaced, and welds follow manufacturer requirements.
- 05
Refinishing
Panels are primed, sealed, and refinished in our downdraft booth using computerized color matching, then blended into adjacent panels.
- 06
Reassembly, QC, and delivery
The vehicle is reassembled, road tested, quality inspected, detailed, and returned to you with warranty documentation.
Structural and Unibody Repair Done to Factory Spec
Modern vehicles are engineered to absorb crash energy through crumple zones, which means the damage you can see is rarely the whole story. Our shop measures structural damage against factory tolerances before and after the repair, so the vehicle's crash structure performs the way the manufacturer intended if you are ever in another accident.
Cutting corners on structural work is the single most dangerous shortcut a body shop can take. We do not section where the manufacturer prohibits it, and we do not straighten parts the manufacturer says must be replaced.
We Work With Every Major Insurance Carrier
California law gives you the right to choose your own repair facility. Your insurance company can recommend a shop, but they cannot require you to use one. We work directly with State Farm, Geico, Allstate, Progressive, USAA, Farmers, Liberty Mutual, Nationwide, and every other major carrier, and we advocate for the repair your vehicle actually needs rather than the cheapest line item.
Bring your claim number to your estimate appointment and we will take it from there — including supplements, parts approvals, and rental car coordination.
