How it works

Three steps, no cost to you

  1. Step 1: Apply online

    Tell us about your vehicle, which storm hit it and your insurance carrier. It takes about five minutes. Photos help but are not required to apply.

  2. Step 2: We match you with a shop

    We contact you within 15 minutes during business hours and match you with an approved, locally owned partner shop near you for a free inspection and written estimate.

  3. Step 3: We work the claim

    Our hail specialists help you file with your carrier, meet your adjuster and see the claim through. Approved hail repairs completed at a participating location receive up to $500 in relief.

Why the network

We'll be here long after the storm chasers leave.

Every shop in the network is vetted and approved by the network before it sees a single application.

  • Locally owned

    Every partner is an Arizona owned and operated shop or dealership. Traveling crews often leave after the storm; our partners were here before it and will be here after.

  • Written warranty

    Every repair completed at a participating location comes with a written repair warranty. The warranty is a lifetime warranty on the repair for as long as you own the vehicle, at no extra cost.

  • Full collision, not just dents

    Hail repair is often more than paintless dent removal: headliner removal, glass, panel replacement and refinishing, handled at one shop.

  • Safety systems done right

    Pre- and post-repair scans and ADAS calibrations per manufacturer procedures, so cameras and sensors work the way they did before the storm.

How shops get approved

  • Arizona owned and operated
  • Licensed and insured
  • Written repair warranty
  • Scan and calibration capability
  • Reviews checked

Insurance

Your claim, handled with you.

  • Comprehensive usually covers hail

    Hail damage is normally a comprehensive claim, not collision. Check your policy or ask us how to find out.

  • We meet your adjuster

    Your partner shop documents the damage and meets the adjuster so the estimate reflects the full repair.

  • You choose the shop

    You always have the right to choose your repair shop. Relief applies to repairs completed at a participating location.

FAQ

Straight answers.

Does it cost anything?

No. It costs $0 to apply and $0 to get inspected. The free inspection and written estimate come from your matched partner shop.

Should I call a shop directly?

Apply first. We contact you within 15 minutes during business hours, match you with an approved partner shop near you and get the inspection on the calendar. You can also call 480-809-1813 and we will take your application over the phone.

Can I pick my own shop?

Yes. You always have the right to choose any repair shop. The relief itself applies only to repairs completed at a participating network location.

Who qualifies?

Vehicles with hail damage from the October 20–21, 2026 Valley storms. Relief is subject to eligibility, inspection and program terms.

My damage looks minor. Should I still apply?

Yes. The inspection is free and hail damage is easy to underestimate in the driveway. Light damage without an insurance claim can still be repaired at a participating location, and your written estimate shows the cost before any work starts.

Will filing a claim raise my rates?

Every insurer handles comprehensive claims differently, and we cannot speak for your carrier. We help you ask the right questions before you decide.

How long do repairs take?

It depends on the damage and on parts availability. Your shop gives you a written estimate and a timeline at the inspection, before any work starts.

How does the $500 work?

Relief of up to $500 is applied to the cost of an approved hail repair completed at a participating location. It is not a check or cash payment. See the program terms for details.
