Average small auto body repairs depend on the dents...... Example: if you have a coin sized dent it could take up to 15 to 20 minutes to fix. 5 or 10 minutes to final prep & then prime. If your average bodyman makes $15-25/hr, and add materials, you could pay up to $30 to $35 per coin sized dent. This cost of the dent repair is reduced if they fix the entire car. It takes about 12 hours to fully prep & prime a car (without dents). This could cost about $450 with out the paint. Add the final coat maybe another $240 using basic generic basecoat clear coat. Average paint job (without dents) could be $600 to ???? $2500 depending on type of paint.

Is it legal for an auto body shop in California to charge storage fees without notifying the customer in advance and no repairs were performed?
Generally, auto body shops cover storage fees in the small print on their work orders. They want customers to pick up their vehicles when the repairs have been completed. They do not want to store vehicles nor remain responsible for them once they are completed or if the customer changed their mind about having the repairs done. You need to check any papers that you signed when you arranged to have the work done and dropped off your vehicle. If the auto body breached the agreement by not performing the agreed upon repairs you may need to pay the bill in order to retrieve your car and then sue in small claims court. It will all depend on what you each have in writing. If possible you should consult with an attorney who can review your situation and explain your options. You should act as soon as possible to avoid further storage fees from accruing.
