Dan you'll be better just sucking it up and paying for the damage to be repaired unfortunately. I'd not bother claiming at all in this case. Your renewal will be through the roof, you'll have had a "claim" in the last 5 years, so will carry it forwards, and you'll loose at least 2 years no claims bonus.
Just pay to have the damage repaired.
Also, you are free to select who does the repair work, rather than their choice, which may not be to the standard you'd expect.
Got any photos of the damage? sounds to me like it'll be much cheaper to fix yourself.
