Restoring the Safety and Appearance of Your Vehicle
You’ve already been through enough – dealing with insurance claims after an accident shouldn’t be stressful. At Mike’s Tri County Collision, we’ve been handling insurance claims and repairs in Sandwich, Illinois for over 20 years. We’ll manage the entire claims process for you, letting you take it off your plate while ensuring your vehicle is properly repaired.

Important: Know Your Rights
There’s no law that requires you to use the insurance companies’ “suggested” repair centers. These repair centers are part of a referral network and are often looking to keep the claim cost low for the insurance company, which may not be in the best interests of your vehicle or your safety. In fact, it’s illegal for an insurance company to dictate what shop you go to or even to steer you towards a shop that they prefer.
