More details to this question:
I live in Washington state, now the insurance company is getting ready to send me the bill, do I have any protections? can I contest it with an alternate quote if my quote is cheaper? what if they do the work without giving me the chance to contest it? Do I have any room for negotiation?

WA law probably has a statute on how much liability parents have for children. they can go ahead and sue you for what they pay out to fix it. at that point you can argue in court it should have been done cheaper. Why dont you just show them your other estimates and try to work this out.
