We are in the process of completing our third expansion in the last 10 years. Our facility is now 18,000 square feet and has a far better work flow incorporated into its new layout. While the production area is near completion, it will be a work in progress for the latter part of 2011. None of this would have been possible without the support of our customers and friends. Without you, we would not be able to continue to grow and improve!

In Case of Accident
Your well-being and that of your family is the most important thing to look at after an accident. After this important step is done, the following things should be done if possible.
Try to get as much information as possible at the scene of the accident. If involved with another party, see if you can get their insurance information from them. This will save you the time of waiting for the accident report.
Report the accident as soon as possible to the appropriate insurance company whether it be your own or the motorist at fault. If there is a question of liability, report it to your own carrier.
Have the car towed directly to our facility if possible. If not, please call us, we will be happy to arrange pickup of the vehicle.
If a rental car is required, contact us. We will be happy to arrange one for you, the firms we work with will direct bill the appropriate insurance company.
Please make sure if there are any alarm or disabling devices on your car, you leave the corresponding 'transmitters to operate these items, or directions on how to use the devices left with us
Remove the most commonly overlooked items in your car, such as overhead door operators, parking passes, keys for home or work, wallets, eyeglasses and other personal items. Please don't forget these items. It will save you the inconvenience of having to make a second trip.
If there are any car seats for children in the car at the time of the accident, please LEAVE THEM IN THE CAR! Every seat manufacturer recommends the replacement of those after a collision whether they were occupied or not!
North Haven Auto Body is Green!
We converted over to Waterborne refinishing in November 2008. Over 70 percent of the vehicles currently manufactured utilize Waterborne base coat systems. Color matches and proper metallic size are far easier to obtain with this technology. It has also dropped our refinishing emissions by over 50 percent. It is everyone’s responsibility to work for a cleaner environment. This helps us do our part!
North Haven Auto Body has met the training requirements to be an I-Car Gold Class facility. We are now starting to work towards being an I-Car Platinum facility.
North Haven Auto Body is proud to be Connecticut’s only independent facility that has met the rigorous equipment and training standards to accomplish both Audi and Volkswagen factory certification for collision repair.
