For I-CAR- and ASE-certified collision repair in La Mesa Village, De Alba's Spring Street Collision & Paint Experts has operated from 4867 Spring Street since 1999. The family-operated shop handles all vehicle classes from motorcycles to medium-duty trucks, processing insurance claims while coordinating replacement-vehicle needs through rental agencies like Hertz Car Rental at Bob Stall Chevrolet. Technicians perform computerized frame alignment and resistance spot welding to restore unibody structures to factory geometry using OEM replacement panels. The Spring Street facility also anchors De Alba's two-shop operation, with a second location extending the family's collision coverage into neighboring El Cajon. Major structural repairs source factory panels and components through manufacturer supply chains, including the parts departments at area dealerships like Carl Burger Dodge Chrysler Jeep RAM World for Stellantis-platform vehicles. Full-frame straightening requires computerized measuring at factory-specified control points, resistance spot welding at OEM-designated attachment locations, and multi-stage refinish matched to original color codes via spectrometer.
