--- title: "Insurance Damage Documentation" source: https://fleetrepairshops.com/services/inspections-adas/insurance-documentation business: OCRV Fleet Repair Shop location: Yorba Linda, CA serves: Irvine, California phone: (714) 909-1844 --- # Insurance Damage Documentation Insurance documentation produces the photographic and written record a carrier needs to fund a repair correctly: itemized damage, measurement where structural work is involved, repair versus replace justification, and supplement documentation when teardown exposes more. Range: $250 to $1,200 Collision estimates for insurance claim walk-ins carry no charge. Systems estimates are $150 and diagnostics are $285 per hour, both credited against an authorized repair. ## What gets a claim funded Adjusters work from evidence. A claim supported by dated photographs, structural measurements, and an itemized justification for each repair-versus-replace decision has very little surface area for dispute. The supplement is where most fleets lose money. Damage that only becomes visible after teardown has to be documented and submitted before the work proceeds, and doing that properly is the difference between the carrier covering it and you covering it. - Dated photographic documentation of all damage - Structural measurement records where applicable - Itemized repair versus replace justification - Pre-existing damage identified and separated - Supplement documentation during teardown - Records retained for the repair file ## Questions **Do you deal with the adjuster directly?** Yes. We submit the documentation, respond to questions, and handle the supplement process. You do not have to run the negotiation. **What if the carrier disputes a line item?** We provide the evidence supporting it. Most disputes come from insufficient documentation rather than genuine disagreement about the repair. **Do you keep the records?** Yes. The repair file is retained and is available if a question comes up later or at resale. --- OCRV Fleet Repair Shop, 23281 E La Palma Ave, Yorba Linda, CA 92887. Phone (714) 909-1844.
