Serving Agincourt · about 16 km from the shop
Agincourt sits about 16 kilometres east of our shop — Kennedy Road or Brimley Road down to the 401, west past the 404 split, and off at Keele, roughly 18 to 26 minutes door to door.
Why Agincourt drivers make the trip
Agincourt drives on two very different kinds of pavement. The plazas along Sheppard between Kennedy and Brimley pack a full lunch rush into parking rows drawn decades ago, and the 401 ramps at the bottom of Kennedy and Brimley put every commute into express-collector traffic within minutes of home. Between the two, the damage we see from this part of Scarborough splits between slow-speed parking contact and highway rear-ends — and both kinds run through insurance the same way. Ontario leaves the choice of shop with you, and choosing here gets you the owner, who writes the estimate himself and carries the claim with your insurance company from first photo to final inspection.
Around Agincourt: Agincourt Mall · Sheppard & Kennedy · Milliken edge · Dragon Centre corner
Your insurance company can’t choose your shop — in Ontario that choice is always yours. Here’s how that works.
The strip plazas along Sheppard East are the heart of Agincourt, and their parking lots were striped for the narrower cars of another era. On a Saturday around noon the rows near Sheppard & Kennedy and along Glen Watford fill completely, drivers thread between columns of parked cars with centimetres to spare, and the neighbourhood collects its signature damage: creased door skins, folded mirrors, bumper corners scuffed on curb stops, and the reverse-out tap where two cars backed toward each other at the same moment. Agincourt Mall adds cart-return territory on top, and the corner where the Dragon Centre stood is now condo construction — which means hoarding, lane shifts, and trucks turning wide across Sheppard.
Away from Sheppard, Agincourt is bungalows and split-levels on generous lots, many of them holding more cars than the driveway was poured for. Multi-generation households stack three or four vehicles nose to tail, and the daily shuffle — one car out so another can leave — produces its own quiet file of driveway taps and garage-corner scrapes. In January the plows add windrows across every driveway mouth, and the car that has to park at the curb spends the winter learning what salt spray and passing traffic do to paint.
Almost every Agincourt commute starts with Kennedy, Midland, or Brimley running south to the 401, and that stretch of highway — express and collector lanes weaving between the 404 split and McCowan — is one of the busiest pieces of road on the continent. Rush-hour rhythm there is full speed to full stop with no warning, and the rear-end tap that follows is the single most common collision we repair for this postal code. The GO lot at Agincourt station catches the other end of the commute: a full day of tight parking beside strangers in a hurry for the train.
A bumper that took a 401 tap usually looks better than it is. The cover flexes back into shape while the foam absorber and the brackets behind it stay crushed, which is why we take the damaged area apart and photograph it before any estimate is final — and why a supplement backed by teardown photos goes to your insurance company when the first number turns out to be short.
The trip runs against the grain of rush hour more often than with it: Kennedy or Brimley south to the 401 west, past the 404 interchange, off at Keele, and north to just south of Sheppard — about 18 to 26 minutes in ordinary traffic. Send photos before you drive. Three pictures from your driveway get a written number back fast, so the run across the 401 is a drop-off with a decision already made. If a rental is part of your coverage, we time its pickup to your arrival so the handover happens once.
If the car should not move — a wheel sitting wrong, coolant underneath, a lamp hanging — leave it and call (647) 594-3401. We help arrange the tow, and Ontario’s towing rules put the destination in your hands, not the operator’s. Hours are Monday to Saturday, 8 AM to 7 PM, Sundays by appointment.
Agincourt questions
Straight answers before you commit to anything — and a human on the phone when you want one.
Kennedy Road or Brimley Road south to the 401 westbound, stay through the 404 interchange, exit at Keele, and head north — we are off Keele just south of Sheppard. Most of Agincourt makes it in about 18 to 26 minutes. Sheppard Avenue straight across works too, but it is the slower, stoplight-heavy version of the same trip.
DCPD only applies when the other vehicle is identified, so an unidentified parking-lot hit usually runs through your own collision coverage and its deductible. Photograph the spot before moving the car and ask nearby businesses about cameras — plazas often have them. Then send us the photos and we will price the repair so you can weigh a claim against paying cash.
You choose where the tow goes — that is Ontario law, and the operator owes you an itemized invoice. Name Collision Auto Center, off Keele just south of Sheppard, and call (647) 594-3401. We coordinate from there: the claim with your insurance company, the teardown, and the rental through your coverage.

Reviews
The line we hear most: “I couldn’t tell where the damage had been.”
Honestly, I thought my car would never look the same again — but they completely proved me wrong. I couldn’t even tell where the damage had been repaired or repainted. The paint matched perfectly, and the bodywork was flawless.
My car was in an accident and the entire rear was damaged. They replaced the rear bumper and tailgate, and the paint job was perfect — matched flawlessly. The quality of work exceeded my expectations.
Very quality service and fair rates. The staff was professional, honest, and kept me updated throughout the whole process. My car looks brand new again.
Absolutely the best auto body shop I’ve ever used. The paint matched perfectly and the car looked brand new again. They handled everything smoothly and finished on time.
