What happens to a damage plane

Hi Guy,Gals,

Sadly my C172 got a bump on it's horizontal Stabilizer yesterday. If hit a cone on landing.

Can any of you answer the following questions:
The skin will need to be replaced on one side. How long is this likely to take. I figure after the insurance gets it moving then a Lame will need to attend remove, take it away, repair it, install and check over plane to make sure she is airworthy. Is this like a two week thing? Or much worse?
Any comments appreciated.
