A collision rarely damages just one panel
A front-end hit can push the radiator support back and knock the frame out of square. A side impact can bind a door that still looks fine from the outside.
We inspect the whole vehicle before we write the repair, so you get the real fix, not a cover-up over hidden damage.
- Front & rear impact: bumper covers, hoods, trunks, radiator support, lighting, quarter panels.
- Side impact: doors, rocker panels, pillars and mirrors, including doors that bind after a hit.
- Frame & structure: measured, straightened and re-checked so the car drives straight and protects you.
You make one call. We handle the rest.
After an accident, the last thing you need is to chase an insurance adjuster. Here's how a collision repair at our shop works.

What our customers say
Rated 5.0 on Google by drivers around Horseheads, Elmira and the Southern Tier.
★★★★★
Driver door dent repair
"I went to 3 other repair shops to get an estimate on driver door repair after being hit by a deer. All three said it's a Ford aluminum door and dents can't be repaired. Took it to Scott's… I asked, are you including a new door? He said no, they feel they can repair the same door. I really had my doubts, but I gave it a shot… The door came out like new. Totally impressed."
★★★★★
Roof repair
"Scott's Collision gave me a fair quote for repairs to the roof of my vehicle. The work was top notch and my car looks brand new. I received calls to update me on the progress of the work and I could not be happier with the results."
★★★★★
Porsche 911 repair
"These people work excellent. Took a little longer than I thought, but it was worth the wait. I would recommend Scott's Collision to anyone. Very polite, price was very good. Very happy with the results on my Porsche 911."

Collision repair questions
Do I have to use the body shop my insurance company picked?
No. In New York you choose where your vehicle is repaired. Your insurer can suggest a shop in its network, but you can bring the claim to Scott's Collision instead.
Do you handle the insurance claim for me?
Yes. We work with all insurance companies and file the entire claim for you, start to finish: the estimate, the photos and the paperwork.
How much does a collision repair quote cost?
Nothing. Quotes are free. Stop in during business hours or call (607) 739-5457 to set a time.
Can you fix frame or structural damage?
Yes. We do precision frame straightening and structural repair, so the vehicle is safe and aligned before new panels and paint go on.
What if the insurance adjuster missed some of the damage?
That's common, because a lot of collision damage isn't visible until the panels come off. We document what we find and send it to your insurance company so the additional repair can be approved.
Is the repair guaranteed?
Yes. We back our collision and auto body repair work with a lifetime guarantee for as long as you own the vehicle.
Are your technicians certified?
Yes. Our collision repair technicians are ASE and I-CAR certified.
What makes and models do you work on?
All of them: domestic, import, luxury and exotic, cars, SUVs and trucks. Recent jobs include a Porsche 911, a Ferrari and a Lexus RX.
My car isn't drivable. What should I do?
Call us before you arrange a tow anywhere else. Once a car lands at the wrong yard it gets harder to move, so a quick call first saves you time and hassle.
How long will my collision repair take?
It depends on the damage, parts availability and how quickly your insurance approves the estimate. We'll give you a realistic timeline with your quote and call you with updates while the work is underway.
