After my husband hit a deer, the entire left side of my vehicle had significant damage and most of it had to be replaced. The body shop did an absolutely fantastic job. You would never know the accident happened. The paint matches perfectly with the rest of the vehicle and it honestly looks like it just came off the lot brand new. They also made the entire process incredibly easy. They handled the rental car and dealt directly with the insurance company, so I didn’t have to worry about any of it. I simply dropped my car off, got into the rental, and picked my vehicle up when it was finished. The workmanship, communication, and customer service were excellent. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs quality body work

This is the third time we have used Bates for repairs on our vehicles (- not all my fault in my defense)! Have been completely satisfied with their service from initial consult to pick up. Their staff is very friendly and professional, making the wound to my ego a little less painful. My ca came back better than new, i am very happy with the repairs. I recommend them to all my unfortunate friends who need auto repairs. Hope to not need them again but know they will take care of me and my vehicle as needed. Thanks Bates!
