Our services
Under the hood and on the body
Most Toronto shops do one or the other. Damot handles both, so a collision repair that also needs alignment, suspension or electrical work never leaves the building.

Engine, exhaust, cooling and the repairs that keep a daily driver running.
Oil change & maintenance
Oil and filter, fluids and scheduled service to your manufacturer's interval.
Brake service
Pads, rotors, calipers and brake fluid, inspected and tested before you drive away.
Suspension & steering
Struts, shocks, control arms and tie rods for a car that tracks straight over Toronto potholes.

Collision repair
After the crash, the comeback
From a scraped bumper to a front end that met a pole, Damot takes your car through the same four stages every time. Mechanical damage behind the panels gets fixed in the same building, so nothing is left for another shop.
Inspect
Stage 1
Damage assessment
We strip back the damaged area and map every point of impact, including the hidden damage behind bumpers and panels, then write the estimate for you or your insurer.
Structure
Stage 2
Frame & body repair
Bent structure is pulled back to the manufacturer's measurements. Panels are repaired where they can be and replaced where they can't.
Refinish
Stage 3
Paint & refinishing
Body prep, primer, then colour matched to your car's paint code and blended into the panels next to it, finished with clear coat.
Deliver
Stage 4
Quality check & delivery
Lights, sensors, alignment and fit are checked, the car is cleaned and road-tested, and we call you to pick it up.
