Meet Serge

// The owner

Same hands.
Every car.

My name is Serge. I own SP Automotive, and I do the work myself. Most body shops pass your car between three or four pairs of hands before it goes home. Here, you're hiring one person to be on it from the first photo to the keys back — me.

Carrier-side advocacy

We fight the file. You stay out of it.

  1. 01

    Document

    Photos, OEM line items, scope of damage. Built before the carrier sees it.

  2. 02

    Supplement

    Frame, paint, ADAS, diminished value. Re-priced in OEM terms, not their averages.

  3. 03

    Negotiate

    Adjuster to estimator. Until the carrier pays for the car you actually own.

You don't sit on the phone. You see the number that came back.

The signature

No subcontractors. No shortcuts.

One shop. One signature. Every weld.

SP Automotive is Serge — start to finish. He documents the intake himself. He runs the booth. He measures the gaps. The cars he's built his name on — Lamborghinis, McLarens, R8s — leave the same way they came in: with one set of fingerprints on the work.

Common questions

The parts people ask about.

01Do you work with my insurance carrier?
Yes — we work with every major carrier and most regional ones. We document, supplement, and negotiate the file end-to-end. You don't talk to the adjuster; we do.
02How long does the whole process take?
One to two days from your first call to a written estimate on your driveway. Repair timelines depend on parts availability and damage scope — usually two to six weeks for an exotic. We give you a real schedule, not a placeholder.
03What if my car is already at another shop or a tow yard?
We coordinate the transport ourselves at no extra cost on accepted jobs. If it's still in a yard, we'll pull the vehicle and bring it straight into indoor storage.
04Do you work outside the Sarasota area?
Sarasota and within an hour's drive. The mobile estimate model means we come to you — but only inside that radius. Outside it, we can take a look from photos and coordinate transport into the shop.
05What does 'paid in full' actually mean for my settlement?
When the cost to repair crosses the carrier's total-loss threshold (commonly around 70% of ACV), they owe you the value of the car — not a patched version of it. We document the damage so the file clears that threshold cleanly.
06Will the repair look factory-original?
Yes. Every panel, paint pass, and reassembly is on Serge personally — no subcontractors. We refinish to OEM specifications and color-match in a controlled booth.
