What Is a Repair Estimate (and Why It Matters)
A repair estimate is the single document insurers rely on to approve your claim and release repair funds. If it's incomplete or unclear, delays and disputes are almost guaranteed.
AutoPop produces Audatex-based, insurer-ready estimates that capture the full repair cost upfront-including hidden damage-so your claim progresses without friction.
Every estimate is prepared by Leszek Popow, IMI-Certified VDA (#20170619604) using the same system trusted by UK insurers. That means your estimate aligns with how insurers calculate costs internally-reducing back-and-forth and increasing first-time acceptance.
You receive a fully itemised breakdown covering labour, parts (OEM or approved alternatives), paint, and materials-structured for immediate use in claims, private repairs, or quote comparison.
What your estimate includes:
- Audatex insurer-aligned pricing - built to match insurer systems
- Full cost breakdown - labour, parts, paint, materials
